+walkergeoff and wife Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Don'tlet one bad experience put you off eBay - I have done 80+ transactions (selling and buyin) with only one problem: The winner did not pay, so he did not get the goods. Just to give one example - I have just bought a Fuji S2800Zoom which is in perfect condition and ideal for geocaching (£80 + shipping, including a 64M card). Quote Link to comment
Sparticus Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I buy virtually everything from Ebay. Just make sure the seller has a good feedback score and you shouldn't go too far wrong. Quote Link to comment
+foxy04 Posted June 7, 2005 Author Share Posted June 7, 2005 thanks guys if no joy from here within a few days i'll try ebay Quote Link to comment
+third-degree-witch Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I got a yellow from ebay the other week for £60, Brand new , Insured n delivered within 36 hours. My usual gpsr ? Another yellow.....Great little workhorse Quote Link to comment
+leecee Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Expansys usually do the Etrex Camo (basically the same as the Yellow) for about 68.00 or so plus a bit for next day delivery. If you're lucky, you might get one of the new WAAS-enabled ones with enhanced software and additional features without paying any extra. Quote Link to comment
oddsock Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Expansys usually do the Etrex Camo (basically the same as the Yellow) for about 68.00 or so plus a bit for next day delivery. If you're lucky, you might get one of the new WAAS-enabled ones with enhanced software and additional features without paying any extra. If you want WAAS you need to ask if the etrex has at least 3.0 firmware. thats what I was told in reply to a question I asked on this forum! So if I see one on ebay thats the first thing I ask ..every one up to now although being sold as new has been version 2.10 or 2.14 and the later is locked to further up or down grade Dave Quote Link to comment
+Spnoo Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 I ordered a camo from expansys last week, and it does indeed have WAAS. Cost me about £72 delivered. Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted June 7, 2005 Share Posted June 7, 2005 Expansys=good supplier, bought lots from there. Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 I ordered my mum a yellow etrex from Ebay and got a new waas enabled one for absolutely no more that I paid for my sister in lsaw the previous week (both from the same seller!) Quote Link to comment
60North Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 ebay has been fine for me. Only problem I had whas when someone changed their mind when they won the auction and wouldn't pay up. Be aware of this sort of thing though with PayPal PayPal Horror Stories Quote Link to comment
