Looking for a Forerunner 305

Postby orleansrunner1962 » Fri Apr 02, 2010 10:20 am

My 305 is finally acting up (battery issues) after 2.5 years of serving me loyally - where is the best spot to get the best deal to replace it?

Cheers

Get it fixed for 1/2 the cost of a new one. I did with my old 301 and got it fully refurbished

Here is the site and instructions that did mine in Canada

You'll need to contact the Canadian repair facility at http://www.raytech.ca .

On their home page on the right hand side is a Repairs/Return link. You click on that link fill out the information and submit it to them. They will reply will the cost of the repair/exchange of a newly overhauled device and shipping address and instructions.
Please consider the jobs of those in the forest industry before deciding not to print stuff

If you don't have a Costco membership, you can buy a brand new one with a warrantee at either MEC or Running Room for ten bucks more.
