... original message sent a couple weeks ago. Since I never heard anything back
I guess the answer to my question was "no", which is certainly your prerogative.
However, I must say that simply ignoring, rather than responding to, an email
from an existing customer is not exactly a great way to encourage referrals and
new customers. Just my $0.02.

Ok thanks Jo, I never received a reply to my previous email and i was very surprise
because usually GPS Central always have been very fast to reply to email. So this
is why I send another email for the same issue.

Just wanted
to let you know that I received the GPS you sent me the next day you shipped it.
I must say this was an amazing experience, calling a store in Calgary when most
stores here were already closed (you were still open due to the time difference)
and buying a GPS and getting it in my hands within 16 hours is pretty impressive.
From the time I hung up, that GPS must have been in motion for the whole time.
Thank you very much also for the good recommendations, and the swapping of the
original cable with the combo cable. I had received recommendations from my friend
for GPS Central, and you can be sure that I will be making the same recommendations
to others as well... The unit worked great, and I really like the built-in compass,
although it's too bad they don't have a sighting mirror like a real compass. I
was amazed with the quantity of map information already in it, it had all the
lakes where we went partridge hunting way up north in the La V?rendrye wildlife
reserve, and that knocked my friends' and my socks off.... All in all, I am quite
the satisfied customer... Just thought I'd let you know!

I must say... I was a little disappointed when I first came across your online

No Magellan support I thought. Well after a couple of emails and a recent purchase,
I became your number 1 fan in Eastern Canada due
to the "top-notch" personal treatment I got. Now with the addition of Magellan
products and the excellent pages on all models with comparisons, you have outdone
yourself. You have thought of everything and it is much appreciated by us end
users. Hats off to your staff who have the foresight to know what people want.
I know where my next GPS purchase will be from.

I bought from GPS Central (www.gpscentral.ca). The GPSMAP76S was $CA610 (no PST
because store located in Calgary and I live in Ontario). The Bluechart was $CA180,
but Garmin will be rebating me $US50, with a promotion that ended a month or so
ago. Delivery was almost the next day by ExpressPost and their service was excellent.
I may of had the advantage of time zone difference (phoning East to West) but
they answer the phones quite late at night and were very helpful. When I had problems
with the first unit they shipped me, they contacted Garmin within a day and had
a replacement on my doorstep the next day, before I had time to return the bad
unit. They also gave me excellent support when I ran into a program glitch trying
to unlock the maps.

knows gps units. I have just bought a new Garmin MAP76S from them and they are
priced very comparatively against any so called lo cost supplier on the internet
as well as better priced than anyone in Calgary. [We were sent us a copy of this

I had just started looking for a GPS unit for hiking and tracked
to your site via Garmin Vendor references. Your site is great, well laid out,
fast, and a bounty of information. I am only depressed by the lack of "Canadian
Content" for Maps (eg Calgary) but a Vista/Legend for hiking looks nice. Nice
to see you in Calgary, that makes my life easy.

I would like to express how impressed I continue to be with your customer service,
for the following reasons: Promptness: my order was processed (as usual) extremely
promptly. Total time from sending the unit from Ottawa to Calgary, and getting
the new unit back to me : 5 business days. Friendliness: clear, courteous, not
ever adversarial, and, most of all, always willing to bend over backward to accommodate
a customer. This is *rare*. Case in point - this whole unit exchange process.
Low prices (icing on the cake) Good, solid, professional on-line presence with
proper on-line ordering capabilities.

mount surpassed my expectations....I'm very pleased with it !

To GARMIN: I just wanted to tell you how very happy I am with your product, the
E-map that I purchased a few months ago. Yesterday we gave my 78 year old father
a GPS 176C and he loves it. I don't think we will be seeing him for some time
as he will be on the road so much playing with it! I also want to mention GPSCentral.ca
and the amazing service I have received from the whole staff since getting into
this activity. The service is second to none and they are always there when I
need them to answer whatever question I may have about operating the unit, purchasing
maps or other accessories. I have been recommending your product and their service
to everyone I speak to about this.

Thank
you VERY much!! it's a little late in the season to be ordering a unit now, but

Just a quick note to say thank you, for the fantastic service (and
price!) on my new Garmin Etrex Legend. I just received the unit this afternoon,
after placing my order online at midnight last night. Now, that's performance!
And the Legend is just great. It is smaller and more feature-packed than I first
thought. What a great surprise in this day and age of advertisers typically sticking
it to us, the consumers. Thanks, again. I will be back online soon to pick up
some accessories.

Not sure if you remember me, but thought I'd send along a note of
thanks. I arranged with you and Ian to come give a demo of the Vista and Legend
and Emap to us at our company back in May. Soon after that, I purchased a Vista
from you, and one of my co-workers bought one as well. I thought that I'd give
you a little update. Since receiving so much help from GPSCentral with programs
and accessories, my experience with the Vista has been nothing short of amazing.
As an avid hunter and sportsman, I thought that I had a pretty good sense of direction.
But after hunting in a totally different area of Alberta, and being stuck out
in the wilderness until after dark one night, the Vista brought me straight back
to camp, and prevented an unwanted, cold, sleepless night in the woods. Thanks
so much for everything, and keep up the great work. It's nice to see that someone
still believes that the customer comes first.

I have recently purchased
an eTrex Legend w/MapSource from your store. I received my new GPS within 2 days
(Cornwall, Ont.) and everything was perfect! Your prices are the lowest I've ever
seen, and your selection of GPS and accessories is unbeatable. I will soon be
placing an order for accesories for my eTrex and will be back to your site for
any future needs. I've recommended your site to 3 people who plan on purchasing
in the near future.
Very satisfied customer, John

Last Tuesday my wife thought she had just bought me a very expensive
toy [GPSMAP 76]. She was somewhat amazed at the way it
could track, but it wasn't until our trip on Friday that things changed. She started
slowly, but by the time we had reached Conrad, MT she was marking waypoints, changing
the setup, etc. The next day, we lost our way in Casper (they only signpost two-digit
highways in town) so she zoomed in, found where we were and guided me to the right
highway. An hour later our State Highway became a dirt track (still on the map,
though). Suddenly, she saw the marker was no longer on the marked highway. We
turned and found we had missed an unmarked 300 degree right turn (an unmapped
track continued the Highway). So that saved us an enormous amount of lost time.
Who knows when we would have realized we were not on the right road? Then she
found we could find the elevations at various points on our land and she's really
happy now. With the detailed uploads from the CD ROM there is no need to operate
the laptop in the car. I think I sold three people on the idea of getting one.
Thanks for your advice.
Bob

Once again thank you for the great service. I have found the blue charts for this
unit [GPSMAP 176C] to be an accurate reproduction of the
charts for the south shores of Lake Huron. All reefs in my boating area are where
they are supposed to be!!! This is crucial as the shores are literally studded
with reefs. It has turned out to be almost too useful as I become to rely on it.

You mentioned the other day that it's funny I had such high praise
for your company when you mixed up my order. I think the reason being is that
you didn't lie about it and took responsibility for the mistake. So many places
now just try to blame the consumer and don't care about customer service. It's
very rare and I hope you never lose that part of the integrity which is so appealing
to your clients.
Steve [We had sent Steve the wrong MapSource
CD, but quickly sent the correct one to him -- he ended up buying the other one

I
would like to express my thanks to yourself and GPS Central for the excellent
service you have provided. I am extremely impressed with your client service practices,
the company return policy and the time frames in receiving both the original and
replacement GPS units. I will definitely recommend your company to all I encounter
who are interested in purchasing GPS units.
Yours truly, Ken [Thank
you, Ken, for the appreciative message you also sent to GARMIN]
June 29, 2001
That was just
a test! You passed with flying colors. You could have sent me back a long list

I have been very impressed with your level of service and support,
by word of mouth. "A" who sits nearby purchased a Etrex Summit (then
Vista), and mentioned where, then "M" picked up a Colour Streetpilot.
Both these guys sit near me at work and I was convinced of your commitment to
service. When I was about to order I spotted Freds Emap ( another great service;
Thanks!). Most of my usage is probably outdoor, so I will probably resell the
Emap and get an etrex model at some point. I will definitely purchase from you.
Peter

for the extra investigation on using City Nav maps on the Vista. You REALLY know

Fred

Just
to let you know for the record, that I am and was VERY satisfied with your service
as a company and as a person (dealing with Jo :)). I try to persuade people to
buy from you guys since I know the service is excellent and prices are difficult
to match. GPS Legend which I got from you, come in a PERFECT condition and now
gives me a lot of fun. Just an idea for you guys: it will be nice if you can come
up with some sort of sticker so I can stick it on my GPS and proudly show from
whom I bought my receiver. I wouldn't mind to have baseball cap or T-shirt if
you plan those things in a future.

I finally called the 1-800 number, the wonderful lady on the phone was very apologetic,

she calmed me down, and restored my faith in customer service.

So much for awesome customer service! I totally messed up on this one and it wasn't
sent out :-( However, the order has now been processed and packed and will leave
Calgary by Xpresspost as soon as CPC allows. We won't charge you anything for
shipping since we didn't deliver on time and I've taken an extra $5 off the price
of the CD (now $115.00) as a token of apology for my oversight.
Jo
April 14, 2001
Thanks for the update! I disagree though ... it's still awesome
service! We all forget things ocassionally, or make mistakes, but the difference
is what we do about it! You realized the problem, and acted to correct it ASAP,
