Cheapest place to buy Garmin GPSMAP551?

[alt]

Hi Folks,
Helping a friend buy a GPSMAP 551 so we're looking for the cheapest place to buy (including postage to Ireland)

Cheapest so far seems to be: http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/2506/garmin-gpsmap-551 which is coming in at £346 (ex-VAT, it's for his business) + £9 postage

Does anyone know where one could be gotten cheaper? If not, has anyone ever bought from HandTec before?

thanks folks!

Bought several sat nav's for cars from Handtec, for myself, family and friends. Never a problem.

I recently bought a Garmin plotter and radar, Handtec were the cheapest i could find for the plotter, but unfortunately they don't keep radar. I got a decent price for the pair from Seamark Nunn, might be worth asking them if they could beat the Handtec price.

Last weekend I bought myself a new chart plotter (Garmin 620) and I was going to get it from handtec as they were the cheapest after weeks of searching, but first wanted to have a look at one.

I ended going to Shepperton Marina (Lindon Lewis Marine) http://www.pushtheboatout.com/acatalog/GPS___Chartplotters.html

They came in cheaper than handtec by a good margin when I bundle in the G2 Chart as well. If near to you I would suggest a visit!
