This is actually an advantage of buying a 4Ti, when I bought mine it had
virtually no brassing (I paid even less for that one then you did, but I had
to look around for one at that price for a long time), but soon after normal
usage it started to look really brassed.

So, when one sees a 4Ti with "considerable brassing", this often does not
have to be a sign   of disabuse perse. Actually, if I were to buy a 4Ti now,
I'd probably look around long enough to find one at a very good price,
regardless of the brassing.

Hehehe, the best 4Ti deal I'm aware of was pulled off by Brian Huber, for no
more than $50 he got a brassed 4Ti, which cosmetically looked ugly, but
functions flawlessly :)
Good deals are out there, but you have to be a bit lucky and very patient...

Cheers!
Olafo
