Good Garmin 705 Price?
GPS R US has the blingey Garmin 705 package available for $505.00 ie
CPU/GPS+HRM+Cadence+NA Maps on a card+Bike Mount.
This company appears to have an ebay presence and also appears
to be in New Zealand.
Is this a good price?
Has anyone here had dealings with the company?
Thanks,
Jerry

The mountain equipment coop in Canada has it listed for $545 Canadian but I don't know if that includes the HRM, maps, etc.

Looks like a great price to me
That seems to be a very good price. However, when I bought my Garmen, friends advised me to purchase the maps on a DVD so that I could have them on my computer AND on my Garmen. The maps on the memory card cannot be uploaded to your computer. I did have to purchase a memory card for about $15.

Geomangear has refurbed Edge 705's with normal 1 year Garmin warranty for $375. The only thing this does not include is the maps and SD card. Figure another $100 for those.

Colorado Cyclist had a killer deal earlier in the week, but its gone now. $399 for a bundle wth HR and Cadence. Not sure about the maps. All brand new.
