From the outdoors community, I had never heard anything good about these guys.
They have a work shcedule that goes from 7am to 3pm.
I wen on the 31 of the month, with a pay day and Hallowen holiday, and at 2:51pm.
As I went tru the door, I was greeted. I did not stop for chat, and went straight to the Maps section (there is a big “maps” sign).
There, there was a lady on the computer, another guy at the cashier and a guy hanging around with maps.
I knew what I wanted, I had the Nad27 coordinates with me, yet I did not need them. They had a general map of Panama with a grid of the available maps.
Pointing out what I needed was quick and easy.
As soon as I selected my maps, the guy went and get it for me.
He even tried to locate my coordinates on the map (however I did not had my GPS on MGRS at the moment, so it did not matched the grid).
I was just gona pay for my maps ($8.00 each) and leave, but the guy say, no, let me get you a ruberband to hold them rolled up. He even shacked my hand on the way out.
I do not know about what others have found, but I have the impression of a great service. I felt very well served.
On the way out, the lady near the door, smiled at me and say good by.
After that, I left happy, and went to my dad Office, Dad, dad, check out the maps I got.
Together we found the waypoint I had on my gps unit....
And that was the last time I saw the paper map...
