GPS

[Guest tomboy]

Does anybody think that GPS's are way to much money! Even when there used they are too much. I think the used ones should be at least under $100 don't you?

I agree, but it's supply and demand, buddy.

I think that would depend on the model. Sure a used eTrex basic is probable worth less then $100 but a used Street pilot Colot is still worth several hundred dollars.

 

I personally think that for what the unit does they are priced about right. Especial if you shop around and get a bargin. I thought www.tvnav.com gave me a great deal on my GPSMAP 76.

 

I would say that for the most part eBay is a great place to sell you GPS not buy one.

You can buy an Etrex basic(yellow one) or a Magellan 310 for less than $100 brand new. I just saw the 310 at Fry's for $69. Shop around Tomboy you find something. If you just need it for Geocaching any of the above two will work great

Thanks for the tip. But im looking for a GARMIN that you can download maps into becouse I already have some software.

 

But would'nt it be cool if used GPS's

were under $100?

You already paid for the satellites... unless you didn't pay your U.S. Federal Income Tax for the last several years. Hey! people in foriegn countries are using the satellites; maybe the U.S. should collect from them!!
