Guest JeepCache Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 Thanks for the link, HomeChicken. Unfortunately, they don't seem to have the one I'm looking for. I'm looking for the new GPSMAP 176C. I've found a bunch of places that have it on the web, but I'm not convinced I'm seeing the best prices. ------------------ JeepCache N 40° 06.910 W 076° 02.414 Quote Link to comment

Guest mcb Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 Try http://www.tvnav.com/ They are pretty close to the lowest prices I have found on most Garmin units. I bet you could find lower but you would have to try pretty hard and you won't find better service. I have order twice from them and have been very happy both times. They came highly recommended every where I have looked. mcb Quote Link to comment

Guest porndog Posted August 25, 2001 Share Posted August 25, 2001 http://www.gpsnow.com/ you have to put it in the shpping cart to see the lower unadvertised price. Garmin eTrex Legend w/PC Cable $209.95 Quote Link to comment
Guest bridaw Posted August 25, 2001 Share Posted August 25, 2001 eBay! It takes some patience but you can get a steal of a deal on eBay. I already had a IIIp so I wasn't dying to get the eTrex Legend ASAP. I could wait a week. I watched the closing prices for eTrex Legends for several days on eBay then started making bids. I got a new Legend with cable and strap and manual for $170 + $6 shipping. I also bought my Mapsource Topo and US Road & Rec CD sets from eBay. I bought my IIIp from http://www.gpssignal.com/ a year ago and it was hands down the best price I could find at that time. Great service and nice "package deals" if you want extras as well. ------------------ Brian & Terry San Diego, CA [This message has been edited by bridaw (edited 25 August 2001).] Quote Link to comment

Guest bridaw Posted August 31, 2001 Share Posted August 31, 2001 Here is another great location for low prices on GPS accessories! http://www.selectzone.com/ I wanted real GARMIN accessories and most of the data/power cables on eBay are clones/knock offs. I also didn't want to shop around for the best deal on each individual accessory only to peter the savings away on shipping costs from multiple vendors. I ended up getting a Bean Bag mount for a III+, new style eTrex case, Data/Power cable for both the III+ and Legend. Selectzone had the best deal considering I wanted multiple accessories. The shipping cost was $7 and no charge for sales tax. Selectzone did have the best price I could find on 3 out of the 4 items plus the shipping and sales tax savings. ------------------ Brian & Terry San Diego, CA Quote Link to comment

Guest Snowtrail Posted September 4, 2001 Share Posted September 4, 2001 I got a great deal on a Garmin pc/ac adaptor http://www.cyber-marine.com/ Quote Link to comment
Guest BootsWalker Posted September 6, 2001 Share Posted September 6, 2001 I bought a vista and found the best prices here: http://xspotter.com/ The prices for all the various models I was considering were only a few dollars less than several other places I checked (including Wal-Mart). Vista $295 Legend $215 eMap $156 etc. The difference is they sell the MetroGuide CD for $100 and every other place I checked sells it for $130. Once I figured out you have to disable the palm replicator before you can communicate with the Garmin it was great. Quote Link to comment
