Purchase the Forerunner 305 at Zappos.com: http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/24649609/c/104143.html

and pricematch it to Buydig.com: http://www.buydig.com/shop/product.aspx?sku=GRFR305

Total should be: $213.49 - 16.65 (10% of the difference) = $196.84

On top of that, there's a $50 rebate from PowerBar: http://www.powerbar.com/nirf/cm2/upload/DAF91EB5-A696-4635-AA2D-BB7600D008C9/GarminRebate.pdf

The rebate is legit as it's mentioned on the garmin website, so your total after everything should be $146.84.

Hope I'm not missing anything. This is the lowest I've seen. Good luck everyone.

rebate is $75 on Edge 305, and you can get it for $299 at JR.com.

$225 is one heck of a deal on the edge 305.

Even better at PCNation.com http://www.pcnation.com/web/details.asp?item=0102AA

$229.88 - $75 rebate = $154.88.

I doubt you can use the rebate from an ebay transaction.

Wallyworld has Edge 305 w/HR & cadence for $270 inc. shipping to your local WW store. Looks like PCnation deal is for 305 w/HR only.

you can if the seller is an auth dealer and gives you a retail sale receipt

I just got my refurbed Edge 305 on eBay for $229 - that included HR and CAD. It doesn't look like a refurb - it looks brand new. I hate rebates, so this was the best deal for me.

But if you didn't mind waiting for the rebate, and you wanted the HR and CAD units (and who wouldn't want them?) then Walmart.com would be the best deal by far.

Competitive pricing but most of all great service and support at Geoman (geomangear). He is often found at mtbr ansering questions. Too bad I bought an Edge 305 one week before the valid rebate date of 06/01. Oh well.

:cool:

I just purchased a Forerunner (the Edge is a great deal but I bike and run) for $147 using your method... THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

So they don't have authorized eBay dealers. But the rebate form only states you need an "original dated itemized receipt" (like previous poster said) and does not mention anything about buying from only authorized dealers.

Thanks for the info Strifez, you just saved me $75.00. :thumbsup:

COMP-U-PLUS is selling the Garmin Edge 305 with heart rate monitor & speed cadence sensor for $249.05 + $16.25 shipping. Deduct the $75 rebate from Powerbar and you've got the whole package for $190.30.
