Cheap Sat Navs

mfceiling

Just logged on to halfords.ie and went to sat nav clearance section.

Sat Navs from €6!!

Ordered a garmin with full european and gb/ireland maps for €59.90

Random stores seem to have them but i got sorted with mine for coolock.

Cantona's Collars

Clicked on the N Drive Touch XL and one price says €6 but in the product description it's €104

mfceiling

My confirmation came through at €59.90...

Will call the store in the morning to make sure.

Do they have to stand over that price i wonder?

MickShamrock

I reserved this one for €6. My reservation email hasn't come yet, but I received a text which just gives a ref number. No price.

Any good as a basic Sat Nav?

Yeah, reserved the same.

If the Sat Nav is useful, let's hope it's running C.E or something.

Any confirmation email for you yet Basq?

If you check stock, they say none in stock....But this is for Dubin...They might be in stock elsewhere.

robertpatterson

None in stock anywhere in the ROI according to their website:(

Schorpio

None in stock in Cork, Limerick or Tralee either.

EDIT - Kilkenny the only store showing with stock at the mo.

parsi

Thanks OP - got a nice 4310 f0r €59 incl 2 years of maps. Text received, no email yet.

Now to sell my smaller one...

Nope.. do they normally e-mail?

Printed confirmation should be sufficient.

Don't know. Just thought they might since they required email address.

Just printing out my confirmation now.

Their site does say:

If an administrative error has resulted in an incorrect price being displayed, we reserve the right to correct that price and notify you accordingly.

Siobh73

Yeah , I tried reserving all of the up to E60 and none in stock.

Perhaps with little help of boards :

Use Google navigation - the robo-lady mangles Irish place-names so spectacularly, makes me feel as if I'm abroad.

I'd be very wary of travelling any distance before checking with the store that the product is actually in stock.
In the past I ordered something online from Halfords that appeared to be the last one in stock. Gave them a ring to make sure it was there before I travelled. Was told that it hadn't been in stock for months, but the stock system said there was one in store. Couldn't be found.

I have had similar experience with halfords. It wasnt even something that we on offer. Staff didn't really care either

I only have a 10 minute walk to check and see if I'm successful in getting a Sat Nav for €6 tomorrow, so no big deal. If you ain't in, you can't win! :pac:

Yeah, I'm driving past it... not sure if I should go in at 9 and be a little late for work.

Or just wait til lunch.

Think I'll wait til lunch as I've to go to PC World next door to it at some stage tomorrow too.

Collected mine this morning without issue. However they did say that there were reservations made for items that haven't been instore for years so I'd advise patience.

Yeah, the N Drive Touch model has been discontinued for a long time so not holding out much hope.

You work? :eek:

Didn't think you had time between moderating fora and collecting bargains.:)

Fluffy kittens and gumdrops only pay for a certain number of bargains..

.. everything else needs MUNNN-AAYYYYY!

Basq

I just got an e-mail confirmation saying my order is ready for collection, so that's reassuring.

Macspower

Got a call today from the Navan store to say my Sat Nav is ready for collection. 39 euro one

Berty

Think they are trying to clear out some stock. A friend of mine works there and got me one including a case for peanuts. End of Quarter or end of Financial Year trying to get shot of the things.

I got mine including a new map, vent holder and leather case(downloaded from TomTom) for less than the price an updated map on my 6 year old Sat Nav would have cost.

Mine was a TomTom One V4 with Western European mapping.

I hear the one in Limerick has a Sat Nav with Lifetime maps for €150.

VirtualWorld

Picked up my 6e sat nav this morning without issue. After reading your comments about people being let down I was already to quote the law of contract, hammer my fists and stamp my feet. Will have to pick a row with someone else now. Damnit.

BOOM!



Thanks again to the OP!

MickShamrock

Got the same one Basq. No problem at all. Salesperson said they flew off the shelves. I also got convinced to buy a case for it which was only 3 Euro.

Thanks again OP! Great find.

Hard luck! I got a text last night confirming, then two texts this morning and a voicemail from the store letting me know it was ready for collection!

Lanigamadan

Thanks OP - I picked up a Tom Tom One for €20 plus the now obligatory case (for €2)!

Anyone in the Carlow region looking for a €6 sat nav?

I have 2 of these reserved in the Carlow store but I can't make it to the store today and the reservations expire tonight.

Anyone in the area interested in collecting both units and keeping one for themselves? I will Paypal the cost of the other plus postage to me in Tipperary.

PM me if anyone is interested.

n1ck

Sold out everywhere.

I reserved 2 of these for collection in Sligo. I was hoping to get courier friend to collect them.

Anyone in Sligo want one of these, and post the other to me. I can send money via paypal or bank.

They cost €90 each.

Are you sure that both are available for collection?

As previously mentioned, I had 2 reserved in Carlow. When I rang to confirm, I was informed that it was "ONE PER CUSTOMER" :mad:

So they had kindly cancelled one of the sat navs :rolleyes:

I have a 6 Euro Navigon gps ready for collection in Wexford. anybody wants to exchange this with the one in dublin stores? I don't mind if its little bit expensive

andreac

Does anyone know if any are available before i go checking each one?? Thanks

davehey79

Hmmm...:mad::mad:

I was wondering where the lady on the phone pulled the "one per customer" rule from.

I wonder where my second sat nav is now :rolleyes:

I also have 2 reserved in the Sligo store. Guy called Philip is being very helpful and holding them for a few extra days. They don't accept payment over the phone so trying to find another way to pay & collect them. The idea of driving over 5 hours is not to appealing.
