Alu panniers

[Vern]

Ah yes, but has anyone bought any yet (or will admit to it)
They might be only £150 each, but look at the speil on the web site, EVERYTHING is extra. For your £150, you get a box, and that's it. Still, I'm sure he must have a long line of twats, sorry, customers, lined up. Any idea how much that stand cost him at the NEC?

Didn't see his stand, but the guy I spoke to who was doing earplugs in the Classic area said his stand cost 3000 quid. It was a very small stand too!

sorry

I just thought they looked ok for the money and the ease of release would give the security as hard boxes with all the advantages of soft bags. Plus he was a nice bloke , done a lot of travelling and interesting to talk with. Lesson learned I won't do it again...

Panniers to Sweden

Johan, I've been trying to e-mail you, but it keeps coming back to me. The price to ship to Sweden is approx' £80.

irish agent

have a word with the civil one he is the irish agent. He takes a very small mark up on the panniers. Even cheaper than vern and postage is cheaper in euros

So let me get this right Civil One buys them off Vern and then sells them for less than he paid for them ....... ah, I understand now he's the Irish agent.... that explains all

 

[Vern]

Let's clear a couple of things up here!

The civil one, is not an agent for my panniers, there are NO agents or stockists of my panniers, anywhere, and there never will be. I sold those panniers to the civil one, at a stupidly low price, because he kept asking, and he chose to sell them on. He now wants another pair, again at a knock down price, which isn't going to happen, as I presume he wants to sell those on as well.
I only get taken for a sucker once, and it pisses me off.
I know the posting was light hearted, but not everyone might have seen it that way.
Rant over
Carry on
