    Depends entirely on the actual retailer. Add it to your basket and see - you can check everything out before finally submitting the order.

    I tried it with a few different benches and things there and they wouldnt ship any of them. Tried it with a 50kg weight set too and they want £200 in shipping fees. :eek:

    I only know irish-lifting.com

    I think Marathonic here used www.powerhouse-fitness.co.uk for his home gym.

    I got a bench delivered from Amazon so they will definitely deliver some items. Also had some weights delivered too and all were eligible for free shipping

    Were you in the UK or Ireland ? I didnt realise they did free shipping outside of the UK.

    I live in Ireland. Free shipping on orders over £25. Granted not every item on the site applies but I always got it.

    And this was direct from Amazon not a merchant selling through amazon ? I've never gotten free shipping on stuff even when it qualified, always told me free shipping doesnt apply to orders from outside the UK.

    I have posted links to a few 20kg dumbbell sets and they had free delivery, and I did go to checkout to make sure. I checked some squat stands sold by amazon and there was no free shipping, not sure if they would even sell them.

    Amazon can be strange for what they allow, I know some people have emailed them and got them to change the allowances, sometimes they have stuff wrongly categorised, e.g. treating a phone like it was dvd media.

    If you are looking for cheap items to bump yourself over £25 check here

    you can get dvds for a few quid.
