AndreZA Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Admin, can't you make a section where people can post all sorts of shopping deals they come across. Here is a deal on a Giro Pro-light helmet. Only R1400 delivered to your door. No extra taxes. http://www.takealot.com/imports/moreusa/giro-prolight-bike-helmet-red-black-large,b002lsvjcm r0adrunner 1
DamMTBer Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 +1 I would appreciate something like that
Weight Weenie Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 +1 would be great Ie. Sportsman warehouse had a 2 for 1 GU Chew special a while backWOuld be nice to have a place to tell hubbers In the mean time, Buycycle has a special on 29er frames, Bulls Copperhead in alu, buy 2 for R5400.00
Wallee Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 +1 I just ordered one of those helmets now. Can't wait anymore, CWC specials are taking too long.
Wallee Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Although there is an "online shopping" forum under Tech Shack.
AndreZA Posted September 30, 2011 Author Posted September 30, 2011 Although there is an "online shopping" forum under Tech Shack. Thanks, never saw that.
YUMEYA Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 I think a good deal is something to rave about.
Robrider Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 (edited) Do you still have to pay duties of that helmet? Helmets usually work out to be about 44% when imported. That would come to R2021. more than buycycle (edit)... http://www.buycycle.co.za/buygear/helmets/giro-en/giro-prolight-road-helmet-giro.html Edited September 30, 2011 by Robrider
YUMEYA Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Correct me if I am wrong but sites like want it all include all cost in the price you see. I purchased DJ console from Take2 which was sourced from the states and only paid the price that was advertised. No Vat and no duties.
Robrider Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Cool, I'm, just trying to get some confirmation, because a R600 difference is a deal breaker for me, and I would hate to get a nasty surprise.
AndreZA Posted September 30, 2011 Author Posted September 30, 2011 Cool, I'm, just trying to get some confirmation, because a R600 difference is a deal breaker for me, and I would hate to get a nasty surprise. With Takealot the price you see is it. Nothing more is added. Delivered to your door by courier. Last week I got two orders from the states and not a single sent extra was charged and I saved about R400 on each order.
T-Bob Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Popped in to Crown Cycles in Cape Town where they have Fizik Arione on special @ R699. Got me a white one, didn't have to order from OS and supported a LBS. Sweet. Also picked up a few little bargain things as well. Never really gone there before, spotted the deal on the website (jumped from the Hub I think). Just back from a 30km ride and I can honestly say that seat is amazing for me. The Giant on that came with my TCR Advanced was leaving me hobbling after 10kms.
AndreZA Posted October 3, 2011 Author Posted October 3, 2011 Okay, Takealot has a special on till Dec 31. FREE SHIPPING and this includes overseas orders. So you can order something for R10 and shipping will be free.
T-Bob Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 CWC has a heap of specials on the newly launched website including the Fizik that Crown has for R699 on sale (white) for R499. Nice.
