    Took a punt on this

    63778_P

    LINK

    £60 delivered to Parcel motel and presumably €4 to forward (might be too big for a locker though)

    Paid with my Visa debit and used Parcel motel as delivery and billing address, verified with Visa

    Seems like a good price to me!

    Must be expired so, sorry about that.

    My order is still processing, so hopefully it goes through

    I got this today from Lisburn. They still have stock but I presume need to be collected ;59.99. There is a problem with the site just now. Maybe try again later.

    Seems to have been a one-day special.
    Dammit, I saw it on my 'phone and put one in my basket, then waited to get home to type in all my details on the lappy ...gone! :(
    Anyone seen anything similar? (been looking around for a while for a cheap petrol-driven trimmer)

    Cheers for that — managed to get one by opening a new account with only UK details. By giving RoI contact details I'd got locked into their "European deliveries mode", and this offer ain't available there. I managed to get back into UK mode only by setting up a new account (it wouldn't let me change the country once Ireland was entered). Incidentally, the offer expires tomorrow at midnight:
    Save £20 on this Titan 2 in 1 Petrol Multi Tool. Was £99.99 from 02/06/14 to 06/07/14, was £79.99 from 07/07/14 to 31/07/14, Price will revert back to £79.99 on 04/08/14.

    I can't see this fitting into a Parcel Motel locker (max. length 64cm?) but I don't mind paying €7 to collect it from their depot.

    Just me and the Titan vs the Leylandii now.... :D

    Got email from Parcelmotel confirming my oversized package is waiting for me. Hope to pick it up tomorrow but won't get to play with it until the weekend.

    Picked mine up today from Galway Nightline place, which I think is turn closer to Oranmore than the last time I was there (its the one right after the petrol station IIRC)

    Box looked nice anyways :P

    So finally bought my 2 stroke oil, my mixing bottle and opened up the package tonight. Unfortunately I appear to be missing the trimmer head/line and bumper. Disaster. Rang them and they immediately offered to collect and replace whole thing but only from where they delivered it. I explained the drop shipping to the rep and in fairness to her she checked my address with her boss but the only option now available is for me to return the whole package to be replaced by another. Noooooo. Have sent an email with the details hoping I find find someone in their stores kind enough to just open another unit and send the parts.

    This is selling for £150 now... Thanks again OP for this... Saved £90 on it and it's a great machine :)
