i believe gps city in vegas or calgary is a solid starting point. The 550 is out of date though - right? So you might look for remaindered or used. Also, if you want the 550 form factor but don't need bluetooth look for a 450 similarly used.

I had some trouble with Garmin honouring a free upgrade on a outdated unit which they promised to do as soon as it became available. They then denied any knowledge and wanted to charge me for the upgrade when I had already paid the inflated price which was meant to include it. They were very unhelpful and lost my business forever.

I now own a Garmin which cost me $899 and has always had outdated maps but they will never get another cent from me.
