Spat Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Hi Where did you buy your Garmin Edge 500 bundle from and what did you pay? Best price I have found is off CRC and it looks like it will come to 2400 with duties, no shipping because buying with a freind so we will take 2 units.
AndreZA Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 R1895 but excludes shipping. http://www.bikeinn.com/bike/garmin-edge-500-pack/7443/p
Spat Posted June 7, 2011 Author Posted June 7, 2011 Thanks checked them out that is just for the unit, when you call to find out then they tell you the bundle costs 2800 or 2789
Spat Posted June 7, 2011 Author Posted June 7, 2011 How much duties can you expect to pay on this if you import it?
DJG Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Thats a good price - found easygis to be the cheapest most times, but this they cant beat. http://www.easygis.co.za/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=126_7&products_id=564
AndreZA Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Thanks checked them out that is just for the unit, when you call to find out then they tell you the bundle costs 2800 or 2789 On my link Whats in the Box: Edge 500 Heart rate monitor and speed/cadence sensor Bike mount AC charger USB cable Owners manual on disk Quick start manual
Spat Posted June 7, 2011 Author Posted June 7, 2011 Yip , false advertising, I called them and the call center guy asked me if I want the unit or the bundle then he gave me the different prices, I should let them know about the consumer protection act.
American Flyers Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 I got mine thru www.ecmtb.co.zaGood price.Rather buy in local because of gaurantee..
Spat Posted June 7, 2011 Author Posted June 7, 2011 Whoops got my facts mixed up it was not that one Mampara, so with shipping and duties probably going to be around 2500, and the CRC option may work out cheaper coz buying with a buddy and save shipping.
DaLoCo Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) Add at least R1000 per unit for SA maps Edited June 7, 2011 by DaLoCo

Two of them including DHL shipping is R4228.41. That does not include Vat this side though.
Pusher Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 I got mine from Evans Cycles. You have the choice of either the Blue or Grey one and it arrived with the new Garmin heart strap which is super comfortable. Took about four days to arrive. Currently R2070.21 which includes delivery ex duties which is about 15%. http://www.evanscycles.com/products/garmin/edge-500-gps-enabled-computer-with-cadence-sensor-and-hr-monitor-ec021845
Pusher Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) Add at least R1000 per unit for SA maps You can't load base maps on the 500 although you can create your own maps with the unit. Edited June 7, 2011 by Pusher
CAAD4 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Add at least R1000 per unit for SA maps No Mapping on a 500 AFAIK.
DaLoCo Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 No Mapping on a 500 AFAIK. Oh....my bad, just figured as it is a GPS mapping would be needed. Does it use Google maps then? I have an Edge 305, very happy with it.
Dubber88 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) Bought the Unit from Bikeinn , total cost was just over R1800. Delivery & Import duties is around 20% Edited June 7, 2011 by Dubber88
