I've never played one myself, but I can vouch for the quality of Boss effects. Not sure about the amp models, but it's probably one of the better multi-effects pedals around.

I've got the Boss GT-8 and wouldn't go anywhere without it. There's as many pedal, amp or speaker combo's you can think of plus wah, loops, wave synth, humanizer, feedbacker, anti-feedbacker, pitch bender...hell, I could go on for a whole page.

Not sure what the difference is between the two but by the pics it looks like the GT-10 doesn't have as much hands-on control. There's about 14 knobs on the GT-8 for direct control of overdrive, delay, chorus, speaker, amp, EQ etc.. and it looks like on the GT-10 you'd be scrolling through multiple menus to get the same thing.

I got mine used off eBay for $350 plus shipping about a year ago and it was in mint condition.

I might go for the GT-8 then, a friend of mine just told me his GT-10 is so hard to control the volume seems to vary alot when he changes his settings which messes everything up. Can you still buy a GT-8 new?

I have no idea. Maybe not directly from Boss but you may find a music store somewhere that still has one in stock.

I did some googling, and it seems the more popular online sellers don't seem to have it. Got some hits on companies that do, but can't vouch for 'em. I've never had a problem with ebay myself.

YW, Sean. I have to say my interest in the GT-8 was piqued when Schmange mentioned it. I would love to get rid of all my pedals and just kick in the ones I want. Be hard to argue with Schmange when it comes to effects and stuff if you've heard any of his recordings. Good enough for him, I figger it should be more than enough for me. When I have a few hundred bucks to toss around, I'll troll ebay.
