They're out of stock now, incidentally eBay seem to be banging them out around £129 then add £10 p+p = 139 or.....go to JG Tech and get it for £119 delivered... well you've got to laugh!

Funnily enough it's always been like that - Ebay sellers more expensive than a good commercial discounter for GPS. They are a funny comodity - a bluetooth unit with out the LCD screen or interface software still costs £100!

People often pay through the nose for stuff on e-bay - just 'cos they assume its cheap (and generally know someone who has had a bargain before), and can't be bothered looking around for a deal.

I know someone who sells bike stuff, and on their e-bay advert is a link to their website - where they sell the kit directly. They were hoping to use their e-bay listing more as an advert than aiming to sell all their gear directly through e-bay. However - people don't even click on the link!! And pay more in the auction than if they went direct to the site - how idle!!??!!

Well its not that cheap, but their price is less than the actual trade price from the authroised UK Garmin distributor and that includes a quantity order! So I am not sure where they are getting them from. But there is no point in me trying to compete with them as I will go out of business very quickly.
