USB Programmer for 18F4550 PICs

expensive? maybe you should check i don't think it's costly compared to the price of that kit with shipping is almost the same price but nowhere near as good a deal.I'LL say again buy the pickit

How ever it is fine that Kamikaze ordered for pickit2
BTW
i feel basic price taken as $28 vs &49.xx , the overheads will ,i feel, be common . of course ebay pricing may be little different. generally there appears an increase of 30% compare to local prices for the same item and added P&P. i meant &28 might only cost 15 to 18

i don't as to how $49 will be cheap ?

Only thing , designed by microchip-- better to accept and use it-- here too there are some critics- who felt they burnt their hands and he developed hatred for the item

I'am not going to squabble about an extra $10 or 15$ if you want a full featured programmer that is being continually made better with upgraded firmware without any extra cost to you than buy a pickit,if you want something to put it a drawer next month buy the other one.
just don't put it in the same draw where you keep your saving's
