Os maps on my new Garmin Oregon 600

Post by foxforks »

Hi everyone,
I'm new to the forum - I've previously done mach and back and El and back and this year I've entered Bear bones 200 for the first time. I've just bought a new toy (Garmin Oregon 600) and I now need to get the OS maps to go with it so I can start practicing using it. Can anyone recommend anywhere I can get them that gives good value for money? Cheers Lisa

foxforks - all ok with purchase? I ordered and it took 2 weeks to arrive (apparently in can take 20 working days!) and then was 11p short on postage. RM then charged me a £1 penalty so had to pay £1.11 to collect from sorting office instead of through my letterbox.

I did email 'dazzler' and mentioned it, thought he might have apologised and maybe even offered a credit note for a future purchase but heard nothing.

I need a couple more maps and wondered if I could take my cash elsewhere, any competitors? If he is the cheapest then I will go there again as it did eventually turn up.

I think you were just unlucky Kevin, I've not seen anywhere that comes close on price.

Thanks Stu. Not going to cut off my nose to spite my face over ~£1. And the price is good.

Can't see how he does it legally for £20? I know as we have a contract with OS. However, I'm not one to complain as they appear to work well ;-)
