Looking to part ways with two bike computers. One near new and in immaculate condition. The other is a functioning but pretty battered workhorse.
Polar CS400
Bought in November 2012, this has been used only on my best bike so has seen very little wear and tear. Its in excellent condition, well looked after and kept clean and free of moisture. Everything that was originally in the box (except the zip ties) is included. So that's head unit, mounting bracket, speed sensor, wheel magnet and heart rate strap with sensor.
I'll also chuck in the the infra-red USB adaptor which I bought separately. Unfortunately it doesn't (repeat doesn't) work with modern Apple Macs. Pretty much nothing Polar makes will.
I'm looking for £90 but more than happy to entertain offers. The shop price ticket on the box says £219.99. The infrared USB adaptor was £30.

Garmin 705
On to something which has seen a darn sight more wear and tear; my trusty Garmin 705. This is a good few years old but have served me well over thousands of miles. In that time it has taken a few knocks, scrapes and bumps to screen and housing. However it is still functional (although the altimeter is temperamental). It finds satellites well and is accurate on distance and speed (judged on other people's computers). Its on the latest Firmware.
I'm upgrading to a new Garmin but wanted to see if anyone could make use of this. All I've got is a USB connector lead and a (Blackberry) charger.
To be clear this does NOT come with any maps or microSD card.
Looking for £50 but happy to take an offer.

On both I'm happy to send by post at cost, but would prefer to meet in London to exchange cash for goods. I do take PayPal.
