+Globetrotter.uk Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I am considering buying a new Vista Cx, please can anyone recommend a reliable supplier. I have looked at ebay and the GPS.co.uk, anyone know of a better place. Quote Link to comment
+S&G.Davison Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I have bought from both http://www.gpsw.co.uk/ and http://www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk And been very happy with both Quote Link to comment
+stora Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I bought a 60csx from globalpositionigsystems. I phoned the place up first just to make sure that I would be able to contact someone if I had any problems. The guy at the other end was very helpfull and fully understood why I wanted to check before I bought from them. Quote Link to comment

Could try wiggle.co.uk I've bought loads from them, + they have loads of other outdoor kit as well now, fast & reliable Quote Link to comment
+tteggod trackers Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 i've used wiggle for handlebar mounts for my legend. fast and efficient . free postage too if you dont go for the next day option. Quote Link to comment
+Adimension Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I also bought from GPS Warehouse and they were very helpful. However that was three years ago and the recent explosion of interest in systems for cars may have changed them a little. Wiggle I have used for bicycle kit and I was seriously impressed. They remain just about my favourite experience of online purchasing to date. Quote Link to comment
+walruschef Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I bought my 60cs from the gpsonline shop from ebay got a great price on it at £325 that was 6 months ago. The pc connector came loose on the back i rang them up they just said send it back and i got a brand new replacement the next day. Quote Link to comment
+UKGeoCyclist Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Another vote for either www.gpsw.com or www.globalpositioningsystems.com. Excellent service from both, though I normally go to GPSW as their shop isn't too far away from where I live should I have an issue. Adrian Quote Link to comment
+Sue and Bernie Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 (edited) Dave, I bought my Vista Cx (International basemap) at this place via eBay: GPS Online Shop ...straight forward and cheapest I found. Do not concern yourself with the installed basemap - it is irrelevant because the microSD card will allow you to expand and install skiploads of maps. Using a 256 MB microSD card (instead of the paltry 32 MB leftovers that Garmin sends out), I have installed the street-level maps for the whole of the UK and Ireland, Holland and a good bit of Germany - just because I could - and this is using City Navigator V8 as the data source so using non-autorouted Mapsource data, you could get an even bigger area installed. You should have taken the opportunity to have a closer look at my Garmin at the Ely event this weekend... Edited April 24, 2006 by Sue and Bernie Quote Link to comment
+ryme-intrinseca Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 (edited) Mine was from www.gpsforless.co.uk . Gave me money off cuz they were out of stock and I had to wait five days instead of two. Can't complain at that - I didn't even ask them for a discount, they just offered it!
