    Does anyone on here know if the winmau blade 4 board is on the market yet for sale? I was just checking up the Argos website but they don't have it on their site. The unicorn eclipse pro is on offer in Argos but the last 1 I bought was rubbish,wires falling off it and poor quality in general.

    Can beat the unicorn elcipse mate, last longer than any of the winmau boards, plus the wires dont cause as many bouncers

    Thanks for that Dicie. I'm tempted to try the unicorn eclipse pro board again,I've heard plenty of people say that their a great board,I must have been just unlucky with the 1 I bought,it was a pure dud!

    All i can say is m8, steer clear of argos... I know there cheap as chips, but there cheap for a reason....... Im convinced, that there buying seconds/faulty boards and selling em on.

    You've made a valid point there my friend. Well my mind is made up,I'm going to buy an eclipse pro off a proper darts retailer. By the other darts forums the blade 4 is getting a big thumbs down by players in general.

    Not into darts at all:o but have gotten the Unicorn eclipse pro as a present for some one. Its no €25.94 in argos if you can find stock. http://www.argos.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Search?storeId=30001&catalogId=1500002451&langId=-1&searchTerms=eclipse%20pro They also have a World Championship Home darts centre @ €39.99 which has the eclipse pro in a cabinet. http://www.argos.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Search?storeId=30001&catalogId=1500002451&langId=-1&searchTerms=Unicorn+World+Championship+Home+Darts+Centre.
    Interestingly Amazon reduced the price of the Blade 4 to £17.99 last month so its worth keeping an eye on it to see if they reduce it again (which is likely) Its currently £26.99. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0047GNRHQ/ref=ord_cart_shr?ie=UTF8&m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE
