Ah! so 7 days made sense lah.
According to Garmin's website, nuvi 310 and 360 is only available in June 2006. 7 days from today is June oredi... may be some truth in it...

LMK... you must be your estate's Local Hero! Btw... you carry a 36" steel rule everywhere you go?

I bought the 360 with European maps too... but strangely the Expansys.co.uk site still shows my order awaiting stock.... after >24hrs.... how is your order status?
Hi SFL33X,

How are you able to order the Garmin Nuvi 360 with European maps via Expansys.com.sg? I notice it's only listed on the UK website eg. expansys.co.uk. I'm trying to order a Nuvi 350

thanks

I ordered via the UK site... they promised to ship to me in 5 days (starting from yday)... it costs GBP 404.21 (no need to pay the 17.5% VAT ) and GBP22.95 in freight charges (abit more than the HK site) but I want to get the whole Europe map and the extra 500mb in internal memory...

More importantly, Amethyst525 already got his 2 weeks ago... so this route proves to be "authentic"...

1. BMW cannot try with the 12" ruler la.
2. waking me up will cost you a pair of wing flaps! not 500!

Oh, Ok thanks Did you do it via their standard web form or via email? I've tried sending email to the expansys Hong Kong office to see if they will ship it via Hong Kong to Singapore.

Via the uk website order page... not emails... the HK helpdesk not too helpful... as this product is not meant for Asia market... they won't make it available on the Singapore/HK sites... frankly the difference is only abit more due to the DHL long distance freight...and I wouldn't mind paying that...

Their global warehouse and central distribution centre is in the UK... so its all going to be the same...
