"If It Seems Too Good To Be True" - ¿Sus Pricing?


Recommended Posts

Garmin GPS finally took a shit on me, looking for a new dash top unit (truck is not new enough to have built in).  Don't like to use the Googs on my phone because talking while using GPS @ the same time is a headache due to overlapping speech, slow for phone to correct orientation of map, SMS interference, etc.
 
Anyway.
 
Garmin site shows ~$ 300, sus website shows $ 200 inclusive to s&h... "free returns", etc.
 
Is AliExpress the Chinese AliBaba thing?
If I purchase using my CapitalOne MasterCard & the buy goes sideways, am I in any way protected?
⅓ / $ 100⁰⁰ off seems too good to be true.

I know it was Garvin on the show, but I was tempted by the proximate comedy of a male prostitute being the voiceover guide of a mobile mapping system.  

I mean, we are two wild and crazy guys!

You ain't got a tablet laying around that you could use to run waze?

That would require a separate phone plan unless I used my phone as a HotSpot & I already get data throttled too much l.

Does your Palm Pilot have a navigation app that you can use?

No, however I do have a short Panamanian that hangs out under the dash & screams out directions like I'm racing RallyCar Group B.

 

Very difficult because he cannot actually see the road that well & uses a mirror on a Selfie Stick like a periscope.
