Nooooooooo. I just ordered something last night. Does anyone know if they'll let me add it since it hasn't been shipped yet?

Cancel and reorder. Or order again and return the original item under distance selling rules

Sent them an email but they never got back so i just reordered it. I'll just send the other one back later. Same thing happened a few months back when PBK and a sale on some winter stuff and had the same winter jersey £50 cheaper. Ah well, that's life!

Probably why there are 5 left

How do you get the 15% off? These would go great under winter bibs if nothing else

Ah - OK - £46.04 PLUS VAT - the lowest I could get it with that code was around £55 but that was with VAT and thought I must be missing another voucher.

I hadn't noticed that! Its a bit naughty isn't it showing a price without tax on the options page than adding it on when you open the item? Is that not advertising at one price and selling for another?

Ive just been looking at Ribble cycles. They have got a lot of offers on at the moment. Ive just spent over £250 and Ive received free shipping to Australia. BARGAIN!

Cycloslalomeur

Sorry about the repetition, this is a repost from road buying advice.

Just learnt that Wiggle had Cycleops aluminium rollers with the magnetic resistance unit for 191 quid in the spring. At the moment the one without the resistance gadget is £159.93 with the current discount code (I'm based in Belgium), with Tredz selling the magnet for 54 pounds exclusive carriage. Does anybody know of a better deal in or outside the UK?

Thanks.

Apologies to readers of another form, but I thought i wold share here as well:

Bargain? Oooh yes. Yesterday was, on the whole a bargaintastic day. On Friday evening, on the way from work to the pub, I noticed my back tyre need a little squirt of air, 30 seconds later I realised that it was p*******d. Oh well, in two years of daily cycling, it was my first, and I was not far from home (pub). Left the bike at pub intending to pick it up in the morning in the car. Next morning I went to get it. Now I KNOW that the bike fits in the back seat of the car, drop the front wheel out, no problem, job done. But I have since fitted mudguards and now no way no how does it now go in. So off to the local LBS. A month or two ago I had been chatting to the owner (an old pal of mine) about Joe Blow II track pumps, and he had offered me a discount, "I can do one for you for £28.00". I didn't have the money at the time. Yesterday I cheekily asked "£30.00 for the pump and an innertube?" A reluctant yes.... RESULT! (It is a top-notch LBS and don't stock any generic cheapo rubbish, so the tube was Schwalbe).

So off to a good start to the day I tootle off in to town. I had heard that Millets/Blacks were having some trouble financially and were selling stuff off cheap so I had a look in Millets. I bought:

A buff RRP £12.99 reduced to £5.00;
A 'Peter Storm' branded Angora/wool mix scarf RRP £14.99 reduced to £5.00
A 'Peter Storm' neck gaiter, RRP £12.99 reduced to £5.00.
These prices were nice enough but they were doing extra 25% off AND buy two and third item is 1/2 price so for £41.00 worth of gear I paid £7.50..... Another RESULT!

So, back to the pub and fit the new tube, and home, where... the postman had been, leaving packets containing:



http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... FBT


100% 190 gsm Merino wool half-zip jersey for £12.99???? Shurely shome mishtake??? It is fine. A slighly odd cut, being a tiny bit 'baggy' under the arms but still, great stuff.

And these:



http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180655644360? ... 1436.l2649

I don't have a lot of experience with cycle shorts/bibs/tights etc but these seem to be every bit as good as the ones priced at £30.00/£40.00 or more in a bike shop. The seller is very good at answering queries.

Both items were ordered early Friday morning so to get them on Saturday was a real nice surprise.


On a slightly less bargaintastic note, I got these on Friday:
http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/CLPXWGLV/pl ... ing_gloves

Faultless service, despatched immediate, recieved next day but frankly they are not very good. Stitching right where you don’t want it, (gets under fingernails), and on a very cold evening ride (friday night) not very warm. Still for £5.00 can't expect miracles, and perhaps with some silk or similar undergloves they will be OK.

Should be able to beat £22 for those - eg Ribble, Tredz, Parker etc.

What is the sizing like on the shorts?

I found my pair to be spot on, in fact too good but that was down to the fact that I ride to work in 10deg and home in 4deg. Riding home they are ideal. I can play with my Garmin with them but not my touchscreen phone which is a benefit in some way.

Yeah, I'd been hovering over the £15 off £100 for a little while - I'm glad I waited

The only gloves I have are cycling and not really suitable for normal wearing. Popped into St James Park Shop(!) in Bristol and got a pair of Karrimor liner gloves for £2.99

well, tredz is 24 too, parkers is 26, ribble 27 - although you can get 25% off if you buy before midday today, or if you spend over £35.

But the title of this thread is "bargains you've spotted" - not "let's speculate what the cheapest online stores are".

I bought mine in store, because it was for my commuter with disc brakes,not a full on race bike, and wanted to check they would work As it happens, I got mine for 21.60 cos the box was damaged!

£128 for a Garmin Forerunner 405CX seems like a great price (same price as they are currently charging for the 305 which is good too but the previous model). The CX has better calorie calculation over the 305/405. Includes HRM.

That's fine - and the instore thing is always good. I'm just saying that £24 isn't a particular bargain as they can be found for a couple of quid or more less easily enough. Tredz appears to have changed its prices but really, £24 is the maximum you need to pay so not really a particular bargain.

eg Parker here (as I said, less than £22) - link might not be right as the Parker website doesn't work on the work browser :roll:
However, still £21.50 free delivery.
