+ecumountaineer Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I am just starting caching and I need a cheap or old accurate GPS. I don't want to pay much yet for a GPS. I want that doesn't cost much but is accurate. How should I go? Maybe off ebay or something? Quote Link to comment
+gpsblake Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 How about the buy and sell forum here for used stuff? Anything new on the market will work. The Etrex 10 will be as accurate as a Garmin Montana. But if looking for used, a Garmin H series unit or even an Magellan Explorist 100/200/etc unit will work fine even w/o WAAS and probably cost very little. Heck, even the old Yellow Etrex from 2000 will get you to the location nearly all the time. Quote Link to comment
