Fat Birds any good?

Slow Downcp

There's more to hold onto, but I prefer slim ones.

Sorry - someone had to :oops:

Postage is FREE to NI, I ordered mine on Sat and they arrived today.

I point blank refuse to buy from any retailer who charges extra for delivery to NI. I haven't a clue how they get away with it as it doesn't actually cost any extra to send something!

to actually answer the question - fatbirds is a well-rated shop and they are also a very helpful bunch.

Can't explain the £18 though....

Let your feet do the talking and shop elsewhere..... they obviously don't want your money

I got mine from Ribble last week.
I know they are slagged off here a bit, but mine arrived within 2 days (not as fast as Wiggle though, 1 day for them).

postage does seem high, perhaps they are using a courier service which might explain it.

you could email them and ask if they can royal mail it.

I think they are using a courier at the mo, as they are in a Postal strike effected area.

yes seen those last night, but tend not to buy of anyone with less than 100% feedback, but saying you have had no problems may go for them. thanks m8

you wont buy from a reputable e-bay shop coz theyve only got 99.9% positive! :shock: i take it you dont buy anything from any high st shops either?

Chain Reaction cycles. They are local and postage is free.

You call an eShop with over 38500 at 99.9% risky? Jeez, you've ultra strict rules in life :shock:

My local Argos shop would have about 40%, as there's always a queue on the customer desk

Fat birds = bit like a moped, good fun to ride until your mates find out.

I did buy something in the past (bottle cages) as they were the only importer of Van Nicholas.
Found it reliable and didn't pay postal charges if I recall correctly

Fat birds = more cushion for the pushing!

Fat birds, the more you drink, the better they look.

Buy them a kebab and they are putty (lot of putty) inyour hands.
