Bungykhb Posted February 4, 2011 Author Posted February 4, 2011 Being playing around with the 800 and it is jam packed with features. Brilliant buy even if I say so myself!!!You got that right! I am upgrading from the RS800sd (running) to the cx because I do quite a bit of "multy" sports. Can’t wait to get it… (struggling a bit with Paypal though)
niklasvm Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Just received my Polar RS800CX from Bike Inn and what a pleasure. 3 days to be delivered. Fantastic services from then and DHL. Saved about R500 Just for interest sakes, how much custom duty did you have to pay. I'm considering also buying a polar from them.
Dirtracker Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Just for interest sakes, how much custom duty did you have to pay. I'm considering also buying a polar from them. R580 which included VAT and Duties
Tiny K Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 BMC Fan used them quite recently. Got a Garmin Edge 500. I would have used them if I didn't have a contact coming back from the states so just ordered through amazon.
Bungykhb Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) Ok, how’s this for a special:The Polar RS800CX Pro (this includes all the bike pods, the S3 running pod and the GPS - about 6 G's local price)At Bike in they are approx R3920 BUT if we take two (2) the price comes down to about R2940 / set! With DHL it is R6400 for the two (R3200/watch!)Is there someone that wants in on this? I definitely am going to buy myself one, but if I find one more person that wants in, we can save close to a grand each! (Remember that we still need to pay duties this side, so the final price will be around R7200 for the two watches, approx. R3600 per watch.WHO IS IN WITH ME? (I live in Heidelberg Gauteng, it will be a plus if you also live in Gauteng) Edited March 7, 2011 by Bungykhb
Bungykhb Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) The shipping will take 2-3working days. So we could have it by the end of the week!!!! AND Polar has a 2 year international guarantee. I bought my RS800SD like this and had no problems fixing it here in SA. Polars back up service is the very best I have experienced in this country - similar to Leatherman. Edited March 7, 2011 by Bungykhb
kosmonooit Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 I just put through an order, bit of a struggle compared to CRC. There was a problem with currency code to Paypal, took many phone calls, emails, they eventually send me a Paypal payment solicitation, did that, now waiting for shipment, hope it works out and worth the hassle, prices are good!
niklasvm Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 I ordered on a monday 2 weeks ago, paid via credit card and i picked up the package at DHL on Wednesday afternoon (i didn't want to wait till Thurs morning). No hassles. Great service and prices!
Bungykhb Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) OK, worked it out - it comes to about R3850 per watch (only if we take 2 or more) Not too shabby...See the link:http://www.bikeinn.com/bike/polar-rs800cx-pro-training-edition-premium/11094/p Edited March 8, 2011 by Bungykhb

(Actually I am glad the sale did not go through. The price for one would have been close to 5 G's. Now that we are buying 2, the costs comes down to around R3700 / watch. What a bargain!!)
