+barger Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 They said they had to sell the 60cx at 450. I told them to cancel. So they did. The last of the "good price" days are over. Quote
Team "Trail Bugz" Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Purchased a 60csx today here: http://www.gpsdiscount.com They have good deals if you need a "package" with map, etc. Got 60csx, Topo map, case, and 4 Batt's with charger - free shipping - $509 That's $110 worth of acc. I needed anyway. Was shipped this afternoon. Check it out. Quote
+mlk3454 Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 I also got the email from provantage that they can't honor the presale price due to garmins seller policy and gave me the option to cancel. I gladly canceled. I will also post this on resellerratings. Quote
+weakfish Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 (edited) I saw the writing on the wall late last Thursday night... ordered from Lake Powel @ $373ish.. Cancelled Provantage on Friday morning. Opened my 60Cx about 2.5 hours ago.. playing with it now. I see Lake Powel now has it for $449 with free overnight shipping and a "kick-back" good at your choice of 7 online outlets.. Still reasonable deals to be found out there. ETA: oh yeah, I put some "feedback" on Provantage's handling of this pre-sale on resellerratings as well. Edited January 24, 2006 by weakfish Quote
+barger Posted January 24, 2006 Author Posted January 24, 2006 They were very sorry. I don't blame them nor do I feel this their fault. Garmin is to blame Quote
+weakfish Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 They could have argued that they already agreed to sale at a certain price, and would honor them, but all orders henceforth would be consumated at Garmin's Gestapo enforced price. Many other outfits honored their pre-order prices. Provantage punked out. Quote
+Drgnsbane Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Knock on wood my order with provantage hasnt been kicked yet. But I do have a doomed looking status for my current order "Status: We are waiting for additional information so we can process your Internet order." Garmin 76csx for 445.26 I just hope they decide to bite the bullet. Quote
