Just had the email of woooooo too lol might mail back to see if I can get a discount voucher lol as I’m so upset and close toooooooo tears now!

Just got the email too!

So I called in to my local store this morning as I was passing, guy said I was in luck as they’d just had a delivery. Had to hang around for almost an hour but out he comes with my box! He rang it up on the til then looked a bit confused when it came to 1p!! I did joke about my BC 10% discount but thought I’d better get out of there sharpish!

I’m amazed you picked this frame up. I got a call from Halfords yesterday to tell me the order was being cancelled, as I expected, the guy also said that every single order was being cancelled. So you’ve done very well getting one.

But you do know it’s a full on track bike?

Pictures of frame or it didn’t happen 😉 expect to see one on ebay starting price 99p any day soon?

I had the cancellation email, but the chaps at the store still called to say the frame hasn’t arrived today and they hope to have it for me by Wednesday 🙄

Same as cookie

Got the email the other day cancelling my order, but just had a call from the store apologising that it’s not in yet and can I call them back to arrange another collection day…

If this was your LBS would you still do the same?

Still no cancellation email for me. I am practically going blue from holding my breath so long now.

Dear Mr Halfords,

I will look after this frame with love and care if you send it to me. I am sure it can be built up into an exciting commuter bike with much spare parts-box weirdness, riser bars and Sturmey Archer goodness placed upon it gently..

Yours, no_eyed

riser bars and Sturmey Archer goodness

This is why we can’t have nice things.

If this was your LBS would you still do the same?

My lbs doesn’t do internet shopping, so no. And the same as what, buy something at the price advertised knowing full well it’s not going to happen?

Why go through the process then

Why go through the process then

As I said before if you’re not in it you’re not going to win it. The ‘process’ you speak of takes about 15 seconds so hardly a big deal given I was on the halfords site anyway.

Why go through the process then

Because I want a track bike.

I hold out almost no hope of getting one by this method, but for 10 seconds effort?

Finally got this new steed built up, wadaya think?

Not bad for a 1p frame 😉

Not bad but surely the cost of shipping it back to Denver should be taken into account eh? 😉

Haha, Happy April 1st!…

However, at least I got a name check on Cycling Weekly website… 😀

.

I’ve just had an email from Halfords asking me to review my frame.

You know, the one they cancelled.

Yeah. That one.

🙄

I’ve just had an email from Halfords asking me to review my frame.

Likewise! Writing a ‘review’ now… 🙂

I’ve had a similar email!! What should we write?

I went too town lol best review I’ve ever done haha
