Garmin eTrex Legend FOR SALE

[+cbthediver]

I have Garmin eTrex Legend, in the blue case, for sale.

 

 

It is in excellent condition, no scratches or marks. I am selling this one because I received a 60Cx for Mother's Day. I have everything that came in the box (GPS unit, Quick Start Guide, Owner's Manual, Wrist Strap, PC Interface Cable and basic maps already installed). There are 17 additional maps you can purchase and download to this unit. You can check out all the details at Garmin eTrex Legend. This GPS is less than a year old. I've used it for some geo-caching and on the road a few times, it works great. I was totally happy with it.

I am selling this unit for $100 (shipping included within the US, additional for APO's or out of country).

 

Please contact me with any questions or to purchase using PayPal: cbthediver@rushmore.com

Cheryl,

I noticed your post on the Garage Sale. I'm looking around for a replacement for my current GPS--Lawrence--because I recently upgraded my geocaching membership. I want to be able to download from the computer directly onto the GPS to easily have multiple geocaches at my finger tips. Do you have any experience with downloading from geocaching.com to your Legend? Did you do much geocaching in wooded areas? Was the gps able to hold a signal during most of your use--while driving, geocaching, etc?

 

Thanks head for your response, Liberty.

 

P.S. I noticed your email address =@rushmore.com

Would you happen to be in Rapid City, SD?

Hi Liberty,

 

Yes, I am in Rapid City, SD. How did you know?

 

I used the eTrex Legend on about 30 geo-caches. I downloaded directly to it

as a Premium Member, it worked great. It's a two step process, the

Geo-caching.com site downloads the caches to a file on your computer, then I

used Easy GPS (a free download program you can get at

http://www.easygps.com/) and it downloads to your GPS. Sure beats having to

enter manually and it holds up to 500 waypoints.

 

As for the wooded areas question...yes, I did a lot of caches up in the

Black Hills. It worked fine unless it was really dense coverage and even

then moving 10 feet one way or the other re-established the signal. I often

go caching with friends who have the Garmin 60CSX model and the eTrex Legend

did almost as well as the expensive one. The main difference we noticed is

that the Legend took longer to boot up and find the satellites the first

time, but after they were found for the first time it kept up with the

expensive model. As for holding the signal while driving it never failed. I

had also downloaded MapSource maps and used it while traveling. It did what

I needed it to do. It comes with basic maps installed.

 

It really is an excellent little unit. When I purchased it I had done a lot

of research and found a survey of all geo-cachers and it was the first

choice in the under $200 price range for any brand/model of GPS unit.

 

Other than not having the plastic turtle shell packaging you wouldn't know

it's not a brand new unit. I always took very good care of it. I'm sure you

would be happy with it. If you decide to purchase it you can pay via PayPal

by signing in and clicking on the "Send Money" tab. Enter my email address

and the amount. I would send the unit after receiving payment. I will be

traveling tomorrow and Thursday and may not be able to check my emails until

Friday. Hopefully there will be time, but I don't want you to think I'm

ignoring your responses.

 

If there's any other questions I can answer, please let me know. Thanks for

the inquiry.
