  • BARGAIN!
    Why not get your money back?

    I'm out for a ride tomorrow so will probably have to test the jacket.. will keep the large.
    Before I return the Medium (cream) anybody need one? 90GPB... and I could deliver in central london anytime this week.

    With the sale and a discount code it cost 93.50... So i figured I'd rather offer it on here than post back and wait for refund, plus someone could could get a jacket if they missed getting a medium in the sale.

  • Essentials Case has gone up too. Was just about to buy one but will give it a miss along with the other nicknacks I was gonna buy.
    Big mistake on their part I think. Lower margins/sensible prices on the more affordable products will entice new members to the parish, who in turn will spend more money over the long term and recommend others.
    Chasing profits on these items is a great way to shoot yourself in the foot.

    They go by the 'Giffen goods' principle:

  • New colours of wind jacket up.

    Ah, you may be right. I'd only heard of Giffen goods.

  • I wish I could market a Giffen good.

  • Pretty pricey too. Took me a few goes with xe.com to work out what currency it was - first try Chinese had the jackets at just over £27,500. Do they have hipsters in China?

  • Are you familiar with that "brand" at all?

  • "Do they have hipsters in China?"

    You better believe it!

  • First time I had to use the rain-jacket in anger (so far been employed mostly as an extra layer when needed) and it was excellent. Mind you these days I laugh at rain. Still cower from wind however.

    Only downer was the oily stain the cream band got from the crank arm as I was sat next to the hanging bike on the train. 1st world problems however

    Plenty of hipsters in south korea

  • Pretty pricey too.

    Something Won, Patrick?

  • Some prices went up today.

    A few weeks back whilst they were still updating their italian site - the RRP in italian underneath the BUNDLE PRICE (with discount!) actual price was lower than the prices they were being sold at which showed just how much their prices have risen since they've taken on the sky deal.

  • Wanted to get one for my friend's bday.
