Money Issues abound, I trail ride...

I can get the Tech 7's around 280, but the Tech 8's are a significant amount more, whats the diff?

One word.... Bootie.

Tech 7's are the latest non bootie high end boot.
The tech 8's are the last generation high end bootie boot.

If you just trail ride and it's not in extreme conditions that could easily land you with a busted ankle then virtually any boot will work some will just be more comfortable that others. Heck Oxtar is on closeout at several site for $200 or less, Tech 6's are good boots and less than $200 most places.

Tech 6's seem to be only 10 dollars less than the 7's here...
