+raistlin306 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 There are a bunch of real cheap GPS on ebay, try the following: Garmin Etrex 10 $100 or less Magellan Explorist GC $75 or less Apishere Geomate Jr $50 or less they are a good start, but if you have a smart phone, the official Geospeak app is only $10 and its excellent, plus most smartphone gps built in are very accurate, the only disadvantage is the reception, a real dedicated GPS will alway get a signal, but a phone is only as good as your carrier. Hope you have fun!! Quote Link to comment
+Cardinal Red Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I would caution you to NOT buy a Geomate Jr. I did own one. I would only recommend it to my worst enemy. I even tried to talk the person I traded it to, out of it. But they already owned one, and understood it's limitations. Hopefully you will never find out. Quote Link to comment
+chrisnkim2010 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I will be selling my Magellan Explorist GC as soon as we get our new one in a couple weeks. We are waiting on our tax refund that seems like it is never coming. PM me if you are interested! Quote Link to comment
