You have been deceived into thinking you were getting a much better deal than you actually did, in reality you saved 10p over Tredz price!

Merlin have the Rogues for £34.99

and there are a plenty of generic shock pumps about for £20.00

I got a much better shock pump for £16 off Ebay. Raleigh one with a hose and a non-leaking release system. Think it might have been through Winstanleys.

I didn't see that, but when they're selling items at more than double the suggested retail price they can afford to.

Bred2shred

Well i think in future i'll keep my opinions of a good deal to myself.

It'll save me getting shot down by Dirtydog11

Some people really can just suck the fun out of anything.

And i know i didn't put this in my first post but, my work give me bonus bonds most months for really just doing my job, £50 this month. So that little lot really only cost me a fiver, now thats a bargain. And halfords is really the only decent place i can spend my vouchers, so i guess i'll just have to keep lining their big corporate pockets. :P

Not having a go at the deal BUT why buy 2L bladder - is there not a 3L one that you obviously don't need to fill up.

Yes there's a 3L one, it's nearly twice the price. Simples

I took advantage of the buy one get the next half price and there was also a voucher so I saved about £20 on a saddle and track pump compared to everyone else`s prices. Free delivery too and came in 2 days.

@ I got this and that, you've been ripped off, sucking the enjoyment out of this miserable enough climate. Most people here are genuine, good, helpful people.
Sometimes it's not what you say but the way you say it.
Or type it in this case

Not that impressive when you can get Continental ones for £3 from Evans :P Although that would involve going into Evans...

Yup, and generally they're so keen to do it, they don't stop and check the facts
