[Wanted Ulverstone] Garmin Etrex 30

Wed 05 Oct, 2022 10:51 am

Well, I might want one. Thought I'd just put the feelers out to see if anyone has one sitting in a drawer, that hasn't been used to death, that they may want to move on.

I've got one sitting in a drawer, still in it's box.
Other than setting it up initially it has only been used in the field twice on bicycle touring trips.
About 30 hours of use, if that. Not enough to flatten 1 set of batteries.
Personally I reckon it's a PITA to use, much better units around, but you're welcome to make an offer.

Thanks, hc. I'll pm you. Yes, I know there are much better units around. Sometimes it drives me nuts (sloooooow to zoom in for detail, out for context, small screen, etc, etc). But it took a few years to learn the very basics of it, which I now know.
Edit: I probably need one that isn't worth as much as one that's basically new.
