I ordered a Harmony Remote off eBay a few weeks ago and in the box was a surprise......a Magellan eXplorist 500LE!!!
First off....there are no maps for South Korea, except the basemap (i think). So, I wouldn't suggest buying it unless you are heading home, or want it as a gift for someone.
The box wasn't sealed, so I opened it up to see what the deal was. It is brand new (as far as I can tell). Everything is in there. The GPS still has the plastic screen cover. I didn't turn it on as I don't have the AAA's, but can if you want me to.
The Magellan lists it for $199. TigerDirect.ca lists it for $129. You can get them on eBay for around $120......
It's yours for 110,000won, firm. I'm not too stressed if I don't sell it as I can easily send it home as a gift for someone. I don't know anything about it other than what is written below.
Here are some specs from the Magellan site.

Are you selling just the GPS unit or the maps CD and stuff that came with it? Got any pictures of the actual unit?
Cheers,

I'm selling exactly what comes when you buy it from a store - In the box there is the manual, cable, a CD, to be honest I know absolutely nothing about it - I don't know what maps come with it. Reading the website, it doesn't sound like much.
It's just an extra 'gift' in the package I received. The eBay seller put in in my package by mistake (along with my actual item). Shipping took forever, so i'll take it as a gift  |
