It's now $349 there, I paid $325 for it through them in May, they had a garmin sale going, also got an interface cord included for hooking to the PC to use Mapquest.

Last year I did a search on "GPS" . I found a store that refurbishes them and garrenties them . They were almost half of new ! Can't remeber the name of the company though .

try www.gpscity.com! I bought a garmin gps 5 from them and got a great price!

Good luck,
Rick

Try HERE for the best prices I have found. I think it is 287.00 plus shipping.
Disclaimer: I have no personal experience with this vendor.

I bought my Garmin 182 from them (gps discount). They had the best price, shipped the same day, and sent me shipping confirmation with a tracking numer and a UPS link. If fact I will be ordering a Lake Huron Blue Chart chip from them.

GPS DISCOUNT
 

laster's link is to GPS Discount. I just used them for my purchase. They answered all my questions. I needed the unit in a hurry. Placed the order at 4:30 PM, got it the next morning . I forgot to get software and called them back. They found the best software/memory card deal and sent it next day as well. They have earned my future business. If you call, talk to Scott Farris.

Boat US is cheaper than West!

Thats it, thats where I bought mine not the link I listed, sorry, I had to go home and look at the t-shirt they sent along free.

Sorry about the confusion.

350 is the going price right now, a great GPS, only complaint I have heard is toggle switch is a little hard to use under way on a boat, does a lot of things the bigger gps do, you might look at the garmin map76 or 76s, a little bigger screen and a few more functions
