Hi Guys,
I am after a Garmin Etrex (the yellow one) & wondering if anyone knows the cheapest place to pick one up.
I think they are worth around the $300 mark. I saw them on Amazon.com for $89 US (around AU$115), but you need a contact in the US to buy this way. :(
Also tried razorprices website but they only seem to deal in PC parts.

Any help appreciated, as always.
