QuigleyJones Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Consumers Marine has the Rino 120 for $84 and the Rino 110 for $62 (+ free shipping for one more day) I think thats the best prices you'll see in a very long time. Quote Link to comment
+big rick Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Both are already sold out. Quote Link to comment
+chileheadcraig Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 awesome! just picked up two rino 120's for less than one on Amazon! Thanks! the 110 was OOS Quote Link to comment
+chirprc Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 OK...I just ordered 2 120's and it let me go through the whole checkout process, when I brought the original page back up, it said they were sold out....however, it looks like they might still be selling the 110's.... Quote Link to comment
+chirprc Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 As of 8:00 this morning, it looks like they are selling both models again! Quote Link to comment
+chileheadcraig Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 (edited) FYI, i called to check on my order and they said that they don't carry this unit anymore. They said it shouldn't have been on the website. My guess is that they priced it too low and now don't want to honor the price. Just know that if you got an order in, that they probably won't follow through with a unit. Edited March 20, 2007 by chileheadcraig Quote Link to comment
+Cacheoholic Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I received a letter in the mail today telling me that the 120’s I ordered are out of stock and my order was cancelled. Quote Link to comment
+big rick Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) Sounds like false advertising. Has anyone filed a complaint with the state or the Better Business Bureau? Sounds like the kind of thing that might make them think about honoring their commitments. They were turning this listing on and off because I checked both of these items on the 14th and they said sold out and then on 3/16 they had the listing turned back on. I hope they just weren't collecting credit card info or trying to build a mailing list to sell. Edited March 22, 2007 by big rick Quote Link to comment
+big rick Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I got my letter today and was given the run around and hung up on when I called in. You need to check your credit card they as of today still had a hold on the funds for the GPS. It makes me concerned about Consumers Marine as a company. Quote Link to comment
+chirprc Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I got my letter yesterday too...I think it's time to look into this one a little further. Quote Link to comment
+Knight2000 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Thanks for the heads up, now I know not to buy from them. Quote Link to comment
+chirprc Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I did some checking with the Better Business Bureau. Apparently they haven't had any complaints in the past 36 months. I will let the know that at least 5 customers odered these Rino's and we are not happy with how it was handled. They were in and out of stock for 5 days....each day different. I don't know what they can do to remedy it, since now their site doesn't even bring it up except through the link posted here. However, I can certainly let them know that "we" are not happy with them or their customer service. Quote Link to comment

Also as of this morning the hold on the funds was still on my credit card. I am glad I didn't try to charge something big with them. They also told me around 1:00 yesterday that they would have a manager call me back and so far Consumers Marine has not lived up to anything they have said.

+chirprc Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I sent them an email expressing my extreme displeasure in dealing with their company. There website states they respond to all emails promptly. I have yet to hear back and will be filing a complaint with the better business bureau as well..... Quote Link to comment
vtmtnman Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 This is exactly why I shy away from shady places I've never heard of on the net.I'd rather pay a good price from a well known company and know my info is safe,rather than pay cheap from some shady company like this. Quote Link to comment
+chirprc Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Not really a garage sale issue anymore, but for those that were interested...my Rino's were shipped today...for the price that they had advertised.... pays to follow through and be persistant I guess.... I guess the business had been sold and they recently cleaned house of a couple of employees. When they were going through offices, they found correspondence between the better business bureau and several other people. Maybe others will get theirs as well!!! Quote Link to comment
Xlobsterman Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 I am sorry to hear that some of you have had an unhappy transaction with consumers marine! I have purchased from them twice, and had no problems!!!! GREAT prices, and fast shipping! Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 Well they didn't honor my order despite my asking an hour prior to ording if they had any left which they said they did. Well now that chirprc has gotten his shipped im going to be a lot more persistent. Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted May 31, 2007 Author Share Posted May 31, 2007 This is the reply to my inquiry: "info@consumersmarine.com" <info@consumersmarine.com> 8:21 am (4 hours ago) to quigleyjones (at)gmail . com date May 31, 2007 8:21 AM subject Forward: Re: (no subject) (qu444679) mailed-by consumersmarine.com We have discontinued the Rhino style Garmin units. I can check into special ordering these units if you wish. They would probably take about two weeks for delivery. Sincerely, Todd O. Consumers Marine Electronics 1-800-332-2628 Visit us at consumersmarine.com So to those here that ordered some units and had it cancled on them. I'd recomend sending them an email asking to be included in my "potential" special order. Quote Link to comment
