+Smilin' Dawg Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I think there was a page on geocaching web site that had lots of links to suppliers of stuff we would like to buy. I don't see it any more. Where do you buy your stuff? Quote Link to comment
+Team FIREBOY Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Groundspeak.com then click on domestic and international partners. This will give you a web list of places to shop that cater to geocaching. Quote Link to comment
+wesleykey Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I buy on eBay or at Wal-Mart Quote Link to comment
+FireRef Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I buy on eBay or at Wal-Mart If you search on eBay for geocaching, you will find tons. You may want to throw -geocoin in there (with the negative sign) if you're not interested in these, because they account for half to 3/4 of the materials in there. Quote Link to comment
+logonwheeler Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Ebay can be a good source of Geocaching gear, however the disadvantage is the availability of getting most things from one seller. For instance, if you wanted Travel Bugs and also a few Nano Caches and maybe a micro or two - the result would be paying multiple sellers multiple shipping rates for all the gear. OTOH, buying from one of the Groundspeak partners on this page allows you to order most (if not all) the items that you need from one place. This results in usually faster shipping times, cheaper shipping rates and better customer service. Just my 2c Quote Link to comment

Too bad it doesn't include all of the sellers, such as GPSgeek, where I buy my antennas and cables. Quote Link to comment

I do believe that only Groundspeak partners are listed, as they are the only authorized dealers of Official Groundspeak Gear. All other shops must fend for themselves! See my signature for one of the Groundspeak partners! Quote Link to comment
