Did sportsdirect piss in your cornflakes this morning?

Chillax eh? they often do free delivery. They are a massive company that won't get pissed off if a few people buy a few cheapy items ffs

johnnykilo · 03-07-2014 10:29PM

couriers are an absolute pain

Nowso · 04-07-2014 12:26AM

prices in general are not as cheap as they were before

Sean Quagmire · 05-07-2014 10:38AM

^^ agreed. I had a shopping cart worth €47 the other day, just checked it this morning to process the order and its now at €64.78!

Isn't that because the £=€ deal ended?

Nowso · 05-07-2014 12:31PM

people say prices have been hiked in the last few days , the euro to pound conversion would rise prices but even without them
both prices are much higher in general anyway

last wednesday a reason why became clear

Sports Direct shareholders voted on Wednesday in favour of the scheme, which will give £180m of shares to 3,000 permanent staff, including Ashley, if profits double by 2019.

They did something very similar to that 2-3 years ago too, didn't they?
I vaguely recall something like that.

Some great prices in the Watersports section.

Dredd_J · 05-07-2014 07:50PM

prices have suddenly gone up by 20% or more.
I had about €100 worth of stuff and was about to checkout and got some fright.
I will never be darkening the door of sportsdirect again at this rate.

If they have put up prices I wouldn't be surprised to see a 20% off discount code appear sometime soon.
Mark it up so they can discount it back again.

What has gone up?
Trainers haven't.

Either have any of the jackets/shirts/T-Shirts/Fleeces that I have looked at randomly. (That's not to say nothing has gone up.)
I found a few things that have gone down in price though.

Are you sure it's not just the exchange rate?

Tubbs4 · 05-07-2014 09:58PM

The euro to sterling for their Own brand is gone. That might be why the basket is gone up for example firetrap.

That's probably it. Exchange rate is fair enough, as tomorrow, prices could be cheaper.

(BTW - Firetrap is owned by SportsDirect too

.)

For the last few days some decent football boots are 90% off (including good ones like adidas f50s etc).

Sizes tend to be limited but keep checking back as stock seems to be added to this every couple of days so you can get lucky in more common sizes.

Would like to know this too, ordered some suitcases that were way smaller than advertised but would cost a fortune to send back.

Are they actually smaller than advertised, or are they smaller than they look in the pics?
If the former, I'd imagine they should pay for the return.

Allyall · 08-07-2014 07:03PM

Adidas Copa Mundial Bag is only €10.79

Way smaller than the specification. Supposed to be 40x31.5x20 but actually 34x29x12.5. 12.5 height makes them practically useless. Have mailed them to see what they say

kneemos · 12-07-2014 02:13AM

Three days from order to delivery...excellent service.

cathy01 · 12-07-2014 09:50AM

Well that is interesting . I orderded a pair of Nike child runner size uk C9. They came and the box also says ukC9 BUT the pair of runners are ukC9.5.
I assumed I'd have to pay to return them but might mail them so
