edit - what he said

Trade size WD40 free at Screwfix with ANY app purchase today only. Part of their 12 days of app-based offers.

I was buying an electric shower anyway, but it would also work with the cheapest item they sell, which the chap behind the counter says is a roll of PTFE tape for £0.36.

The screwfix free wd40 reminds me of the asda app download, you get 5 quid free if you download the asda app and use it, i bought a banana for 15p and got the 5 quid....this was summer so not sure if bribe is still going.

Briskers for £11

Price, description, previous reviews, everything about that screams FAKE

I've previously contacted ebay and 100% about the obviously fake 100% kit and they don't seem to care.

I for +1 know for a fact that ebay cs acts in favour if fake goods sellers even with proof sent on by brand company to act as evidence.

Erm, I've clicked "accept all cookies" on the Greggs site and nothing has happened. Where are my biscuits?

OS Maps app premium subscription now 50% off (£17.49).

agreed at @dartdude, i bought a terrex jacket, when it arrived it was clearly fake, it had adidas / terrex logos all over, i complained it was fake , ebay had no interest, adidas dont get involved, i got lucky with a technicality,  i sent pictures of the jacket agaisnt the stock images, as it had random logo on the sleeve, and i got a refund 'not as described'

AudioPro P5 speaker for £60

https://uk.audiopro.com/products/p5

We've got one and it's very good. We use it when we're away form home and also in our campervan. It's not stupidly bass heavy but has a really good overall sound.

Bah, eBay shopping 101! I've got a legit set so I can compare how bad they are in the interests of market research... Purchased for a secret santa gift so hopefully they'll never know....

Briskers? The cheap ones I bought last year (different seller) looked identical to my older, legit pair but the rubberised bits started to come away quite quickly (plus the cardboard tag they were attached to was for a different style) - I surmised they are probably QC rejections which have found their way out the back door.

Merlin dont have the mechs in stock?

Wow they went quick. Glad I got my order in before posting it up. Its a bit like seagulls on here. Wonder how many will end up on eBay

blimey. how much do they cost *with* batteries?

Don't quote me on this. But the OS maps offer is today only, so I cancelled my current sub which was to expire 28/12/2024 and repurchased a full year at £17. It looks like it has added the new year onto the remaining time, as it now expires 28/12/2025. So it may just add a year on to your current subscription.

Amazon have just released some more free games.

Elite dangerous and Dredge free on Amazon prime gaming.

Plenty of other games as well.

I'm still dithering over those ghost wheels mentioned above. Anyone got them and able to say they are awesome, or if there is any buyers remorse? How loud is the freehub?

I'd use them for Gorrick and SDW type riding.

yer they seem awesome, freehub has a slightly deeper tone, nothing i don't like about them tbh

Last day of Klean kanteens 25% off site wide.

FRIDAY25

Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition (which includes the Phantom Liberty expansion) is £26.99 on CD Keys for a GOG code.

I've been wanting to play it for a while, this has finally tipped me over the edge.

PS5 controller for £39.99 at Currys

Certain colors are £39.99, white ones are £44.99. EDIT - it seems only certain colors available for delivery.

Really enjoyed my play through of Cyberpunk 2077, the DLC is fantastic and very "dark" IMO. Hoping they are working on a sequel.

Dredge is worth it from the Amazon games library.

@fueled Ghost wheels seem awesome. Halfway through fitting rimpacts and minions, and it’s not been as awful as I was expecting!

Haven't ridden them yet, I think I have to wrap them up and put them under the tree once they’re ready.

Last ~23 hours of the Steam sale, some prices actually undercut Cdkeys for a change! 😮

I finally bought Hades for £8.39, having worried it would be too fast paced for my little old head to cope with since long covid, but loving it.

I purchased a pair of these a few years ago after a PSA on here, they have been great for the winter and at that price, an absolute bargain!

Airdrop Edit MX Deluxe with 20% off, couple left. If 8 didn't have one already, I'd be in this like a tramp on chips.

...and free delivery with the Regatta deal if you 'become a member' for free. I ordered 2 pairs of trousers, used the 10% code and went via TCB so should be about £17.50 per pair - thanks for the heads up!

What's the score with import duty nowadays?

What kind of % are you looking at having to pay on that?

If its the same as my forks from Germany the total to pay Royal Mail was 27.65% but was still cheaper by £100 than any where else I could get in the UK

I did the calc before ordering but didn't know what their handling charge would be

i havent paid anything extra on imports from Bike Inn

https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/en/sram-gx-eagle-axs-upgrade-groupset/141130084/p?utm_source=google_products&utm_medium=merchant&id_producte=144246714&country=uk&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAmMC6BhA6EiwAdN5iLR8nW4Mu4Rz0yohjz1jm4rXqoVK65t4LGKA7GeBH3KH-xHnmk3NeBxoCNyAQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

i just had to pay £133 vat/import duty for a frame from germany-i really wasnt expexting it.

That includes £12 delivery charge from royal mail cos it was a saturday

Vat at 20% and import duty varies on the calssification of the item.

Im going to argue with Tax people via a form online

Details here: I am ordering from the UK, what do I need to consider?

National sales tax as well as customs & Import fees:

Deliveries to Great Britain are net, i.e. without national sales tax. This tax is then due on import. If United Kingdom is selected as the country of delivery, the prices are displayed in the shop without sales tax.

In addition to the shipping costs calculated by Bike-Discount, additional import costs may apply. These are usually about any import duties and national sales tax.

So not such a good PSA after all - sorry, folks!

Half price off 50 items at Tiso

that Orbea looks like a bargain at £1050.

bombers, mixture of Deore and SLX 12 speed & a dropper

Just Lordgun and Bikeinn left now that customs etc isn't a worry now isn't it?

They are the only two I've used. Not come across any others

Sports Pursuit is another one.
