geotrails Posted September 29, 2009 Share Yes, Edgar raises an issue. I have always purchased Garmin locally as Avnic will not honour warranty's for units purchased abroad. At a rough guess I can get a 705 through CRC for R3700 and here it will cost me around R5000. When I have a warranty claim I send to Avnic and it costs me R50 for Speed Services and then they quibble and delay. Will I get different service if I return to CRC? Perhaps it's worth the risk. In the past CRC have been fantastic on warranty returns. Surely if we are paying a premium for a warranty we should get premium service? I still have not sent in my unit. I am leaving it till after my next race, then I'll put Avnic to the test and let you know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwynn Posted September 29, 2009 Share My first 305 came from my son in the UK as a birthday present. It started with the switching off thing and I took it to Avnic. They replaced it, no problems. Same happened with the 3rd one. Took it in and said I didn't buy the thing to be repaired every week. Paid R1800.00 and walked out with a 705! I can not complain about the service at Avnic. I do think however that their response is is directly equivalent to the customers attitude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
