    There are two under the one reservation code. Someone has sent a pm for the code. I will ask them to contact you if they only want one to see if you can organise something.

    Got a phone call saying it would be kept til tomorrow and said I would collect it today. To say I got a rude reception when I went to the shop today is an understatement. Handed gruffly, no box, no instructions and no charger. Asked for charger, she will get, said the sales assistant pointing at another girl. When I asked her was there a box she got really narky and gave me a lecture. Then my other half spotted the security tag still on it! There was so much eye rolling and puffing I think they were pissed off I was getting it.

    Was that the Navan shop by any chance? I got a quad there and they told me they only had one left made up and they couldn't find the charger. They said mine was the last fully boxed one.

    Naas.


  • Registered Users Posts: 91 ✭✭hipdoobloon


    Funny how every1 is complaining about the bikes and quad
    Bike accessories , boxes , chargers etc as I got the same
    Call yesterday morning saying that the charger was
    Gone AWOL off the quad bike and they would
    Try and order a new 1 but with no guarantees of getting
    1 . Coincidence or what ?

    Gonna swim against the tide here. Reserved the quad in Cork Friday evening when I saw this thread. Got a friendly phone call early Saturday morning wondering when I would be collecting it as they would leave it to hand if over the next few days. Said I would be collecting that morning and was told there was no need to rush - they'd hold it for a week. Went in Saturday anyway, and a very nice girl on the till got the quad, which was fully present and correct in its box.

    On the flip side though, the quad itself isn't really the best and no way worth €100. It's a bit light and flimsy and doesn't have any lights or sounds (which a quad we had previously with a lower RRP had). The 'go' button on the pedal is also a bit hard for our young fellow to hold down with his foot and the driving wheel tends to lose traction quite a bit.

    Got a call from the nice people in the
    Carrickmines branch earlier saying that
    They found the charger 4 the quad bike.
    I picked up a new boxed 1 that wasn't on their
    Website stock list And they also had a cancelation on another
    1 so as of 5 o clock there's a new purple
    1 and the display red 1 .
