I am selling my like new 255W and 205W. The 255W has the latest maps, and the 205W has maps that are 1 year old. Both are in excellent shape, have no scratches at all on them, and have everything that came with them (windshield mount, mount bracket, charging cable, and the GPS). These GPSs’ have the larger 4.3” screens which is easier to work with and see, rather than the little GPS units that are like only 3”. I am asking $100 or best offer for the 255W, and $70 or best offer for the 205W. Happy bidding!

Just an FYI but Amazon has the Nuvi 265WT with lifetime map updates, carrying case and a $15 amazon card for $100 with no shipping. Might want to adjust your price down a bit.

Well I looked at that ad but that GPS doesn’t come with lifetime map updates, it just has a “lifetime” traffic receiver integrated into the GPS, which is also found in the GPS I’m selling. No GPS unit from Garmin has free lifetime map updates. That seems like an awesome deal, but that ad unfortunately expired already, and if you check the prices of the GPS on that same page of refurbished units, they run anywhere between $110 and $120, and a new one is even more. All the features mentioned there with that GPS including the FM Traffic Receiver and Bluetooth Hands Free Calling are also featured with my 255W.

I was backwards on the one previously mentioned having lifetime maps, because I purchased a different one yesterday, the Garm Nuvi 1450LMT.

Wrong, try again. The one I purchased yesterday for $130 is a Garmin and does have lifetime map updates, as well as everything else.

Well I apologize but I figured if map updates were free then they wouldn't sell that years maps on an sd card, as well as maps of other countries at best buy for something like $50 I think it was last time I looked. But at any rate, if that is true I guess that makes us both wrong. It just seems like everytime I try to post something on here there's always someone that's waiting to critique the ad or try to be negative about the ad. This is wolfweb for christ sake, this section of it is for selling. If all your going to do is critique or try to tell someone they are wrong, maybe you should click on "general discussion" rather than "classifieds". If you aren't bidding or trying to make a deal, why post something on someones ad they took the time to create. Im sure when you post things you would have negative feelings if I picked your ads apart in every minute detail and told you your information was not correct. Im sorry I don't mean to be a jerk or anything but just something to think about.

I am not trying to be a jerk or anything either. But we see it time and time again that people post things on here (esp. people who post very infrequently) and have unrealistic expectations on what they should get for a product, and then get offended when they feel they are being lowballed. The one I mentioned was a newer model than the nicer one you had and was on sale for the same price as what you wanted for a used device that didn't have a case or traffic updates and had a $15 credit, effectively making the sale price $85, at the time. It was a limited offer, obviously.

Just trying to get you to understand that regardless of how much you paid at the time, its probably not worth what you are asking. GPS prices are dropping like a rock, esp. for the older units, and the eBay price for the 255W is about $75.
