  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,684 ✭✭✭triggermortis


    I’ll check how many I have left in the shed tomorrow. I think I’ll probably be in for this


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 142 ✭✭guanciale


    How did you arrive at €21 for 30. I get £14.90 which is closer to €17.00/17.50 depending on fx.

    Plus shipping, overheads, and a bit of margin, tip for the courier, labour costs to split the consignment , secondary packaging costs... :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,122 ✭✭✭Peterx


    Hi. If you still need more people to fill the order I will take 30 for the €21. From Rathmines. Thanks

    Wow, sounds cheap with all those overheads!!

    Never used and dont possess a CO2 inflator, pure air all the way. Is using CO2 just a speed/convenience/weight/aesthetic thing on the road? The slowest part of fixing on the road is normally changing the tube ...or am I missing a marginal gain somewhere?

    The problem i find is trying to get the road bike tyre up to 100 psi with a hand pump on the side of the road.
    Where as the Co2 will give you 100psi in about 2seconds.

    There has been about 15 cent round up to 21 euro i have otherwise went with cost price.
    If people want them shipped somewhere it will be extra.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,503 ✭✭✭secman


    70 cents a pop is very good value, they range between €2 to €3 over the counter.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 697 ✭✭✭Cionn


    I will go for 30 too if there is still availability. Can you confirm the size of the canisters ? I presume 16g

    Any chance youre coming to Kerry or cork in the next few months? Id take 30 and pay you straight away, no problem waiting to get them......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,450 ✭✭✭LollipopJimmy

    Sorry I don't see myself going down there any time soon. I'd offer to post or parcel motel it (at additional cost) but i've no idea how much it'd be

    Perfect- I’ll take 60 so, I can arrange Gls to pick them up whenever/wherever you want- thanks!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 221 ✭✭Milk_Tray


    Id take 30 if posted as I wouldnt be near that area anytime soon

    30 cartridges weigh 1.75kg so ParcelMotel would be cheaper than AnPost. It'll be either €5.50 or €6.50 extra (not sure which category it'd fall into Medium or Large) to send it to your nearest Parcel Motel locker. Lemme know if you still want me to put your name down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭Eamonnator


    GLS
    courier company


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 90 ✭✭makker


    I'd would take 30 please if there's still availability. Can pick up from dub castle

    Cheers for organising
