Dont hope for too much my friend. They are rarely sold on the used-market and when they are the price is almost the same as new :-(
If you want a cheaper solution I would recommend you to go for the Garmin 60 CSX which has a smaller screen but fulfilling its purpose. It can store waypoints and tracks and you can transfer waypoints between device and PC etc.
The price is about a third of the 276 I think.

In addition to what Eric said i also recommend the Oregon 300, it comes after the 60 CSX. 276C is like a piece of gold now, even here in Qatar, because the model is discontinued and the Middle East agent in Dubai "AMIT” has increased the price to almost double .

This site should help in deciding what is suitable for you and your budget.

Garmin GPSMAP 60CSx seems to be the best choice for price but small screen is a downer.
Garmin GPSMAP 152 has a bigger screen but lower resolution and in BW.

If you intend to buy a Garmin from the official agent (AMIT) in Mina AD, always double check prices with their Dubai branch. The AD branch salesman is very greedy to say the least. Better still just go to Dubai, much better/bigger choices and lots of stock. Last time i was there, they had 5 salesmen working the showroom while AD has 1.

or get it from "Al Jazira" also an official agent, on the same road Mina AD.
