Where To Buy Darmin Gps In Pattaya, advice please

Does anyone know of a Darmin dealer in Pattaya who actualy has the Nuvi line of GPS units in stock?

Have you checked out TukCom for *Garmin*? First floor with all the Sony goods and maybe IT Center on the 5th floor?

I saw garmin in Tuckom 1st floor in Sony shop and in a little shop SMART near the optician. But not too much choice and seems no have technicians to fix

At Tukcom, I only found a computor shop that has a display with brocures of an online dealer the guy in the shop didn't know any more about it he gave me a brocure but I don't like buying online, I didn't find them at the Sony shop.

I guess I'll have to go to Bangkok for this.

Thanks for the replies.

There's good reviews for the nuvi 260W...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbsup.gif) ...... if that's available in Thailand. Good luck!

I bought my Garmins from the US but bought the maps from Gadget Trend in Bangkok. Their service is great. Here's the link;

Gadget Trend will EMS anything in their shop direct to your home. Address your email to a guy named Art. He speaks excellent English and he will answer any questions you have.

Seconded.
I didn't find the people in Tuk Com particularly helpful or knowledgeable whereas Gadget Trend's service has been excellent. And the shop at the Homeplace Building is convenient if you wanted to check it out. Bus from Pattaya to Ekamai and from there a very short journey to Soi Thong Lor.

Tesco's are selling the Nuvi 200

Cheers

The guy from Gadgettrend.com comes to both the expat clubs with units for sale. He has also done teaching sessions for people who buy his kit.

Ring him and find out when he is next coming down here.
