Looking for new/used 470 or 500 w/ejectors

I am looking for a new or used 470 or 500 with ejectors, preferably. Will consider all in the moderately priced range. Thanks all !

What is the "moderately priced range" and are you looking for a particular make?

Moderately priced for me is 15K. I know that puts me well in the new Searcy/Merkel/Heym range but I'm curious as to what's out there used. Looking hard at the Heym 500 88B Safari( new, availabile early'08, 16K ) or in 470 ( available now ,12K ). I previously owned a Searcy Deluxe boxlock in 500, and while there was nothing wrong with it..........
While I have no experience with the Merkels, online chats seem to suggest good rifle for the money, the ejector guns won't be available till '08. And there's that nagging doubt of durability.
Curious to see the responses.

In 500NE they KICK. I like the recoil of Doc52's 577NE better.
