I am SO tempted to buy a 205...in the event that my 305 should ever bite the dust or need repair. I seriously am addicted to my "Big Red."  |

| If you're an REI member, there's also a 20% coupon along with that. I'm not sure if you can use it on top of the sale price but if you can, that's a great deal. |

| P.S. Its alive. I already tried to get Amazon to price match so I could get cheaper/faster shipping no go. And I can't get any of the coupons to apply to either the 305 or 405. So its either the 305 for $164.99 + $11.99 shipping of the 405 for $349.95 + $11.99 shipping from REI. So I think it'll be the 305. Shipping is expensive and I live in a state that doesn't have an REI so can't ship it to store (but I don't pay tax). |

I was just told by REI that the 20% off coupon does not apply to GPS items  |

I know I'm trying to figure out a way to get something off  but have been unsuccessful. The only additional discount I can get is 3% though either FatWallet.com or through my Citi MasterCard. I just which Amazon.com would price match since I have Prime and could upgrade to overnight for $3.99 and have it tomorrow
I think $11.99 is a lot for standard shipping since there is no REI in my state (which means I save on tax, though). |

I got hit for tax and shipping. Of course I just had to have the damn thing sent overnight only to find out the Garmin store in Chicago has plenty of them in both colors. Grrrrr.... |

I've got one sitting in my cart. I do not want to pay $28.99 for overnight. I keep refreshing Amazon.com to see if they'll match... The closest store to me over 100 miles away.

| Well, I just ordered the 205. I think it will be fine for me--I'm not hugely into electronic stuff. It will be a giant step up from my digital watch/stopwatch/chronograph. |

Zappos doesn't price match anymore according to all the deal sites (fatwallet, slickdeals) |
