Product price now up to $79.99 – $10.00 more than the inflated price of $69.99 when I first reviewed today. Less than $20.00 from other sites. I had always thougt better of Amazon.

I ordered this case for a new unit I purchased also from Amazon. When I got notice of the purchase I was notified that the handling charges were almost double the stated price on the ad. I have sent three email to the company asking to cancel the order and have not heard back from them.

As cool as the carrying case for the Nuvi 200w is, it is too small for the gps itself. Kind of ridiculous. Should be 1 inch longer for optimal protection.

This is a terrible shopping experience!
I purchased a GPS and carrying case from Amazon, in the United States, and went to pick it up the day I was leaving for Panama.
They sent the WRONG carrying case! The GPS unit sticks out over an inch, and exposes the screen to scratches and other damage. It is absolutely worthless to me.
So now I have a case that is worthless, and worse yet, I have to start searching for a new one here in Panama–because I sure as heck won’t trust Amazon to ship me the right one!
What a screwed up order!
My time is too valuable to spend it on shipping this case back, and reordering the right case for my unit. And then shipping THAT case to me here in Panama. A HUGE waste of valuable time!
I sure wish they would have gotten it right the first time!
Buyer beware. Buy your carrying case AFTER you get your GPS!
ps: They wouldn’t let me select ZERO stars in this review, so I had to give it one star. It doesn’t deserve even that!

I ordered a garmin nuvi 205 and also a protective case for the nuvi. The garmin nuvi 205 was fine, but the package the protective case came in had already been opened. It was probably sent back to Amazon by someone else, and Amazon passed it on to me. I thought that was VERY poor customer service. I will be careful from now on if I ever order from Amazon again. I am very disappointed with Amazon. Shame on you! Now get your act together.
