I recently picked up a Kryptonite New York lock from Amazon US for around 60% of the cost when purchased in Australia. However they would not ship a cheap torque wrench so it seems to be a bit hit and miss as to OS shipping.JBark wrote:Noticed the other day when I was doing an Amazon order that they've mistakenly marked the Contour Roam2 in Green as available for shipping overseas:
http://www.amazon.com/Contour-ROAM2-Wat ... B009CN8VNY" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
$199, comes out to be around $208 shipped.
Gotta be a mistake, because every single other Contour camera on the site is US shipping only. But it does work, mine just shipped yesterday. I suppose it could just be that nobody likes green, so they're got extra stock and are allowing overseas shipping, but I doubt it.

I think exchange rates, shipping and gst are the usual suspects, right??kukamunga wrote:73% off Cycle Helmet Light at Kathmandu Easter Sale

Backcountry
They are having a special with 20% off any full priced item. Enter code SAVE20. I am sure there are other bargains to be had, but I thought the repair stand was really good value.
I haven't used them before, but they have posted my purchase within 12 hours.

I've used BackCountry before (well, I have an account there so I must have purchased something from there ages ago ). No problems with them when purchasing ski gear.redsonic wrote:Feedback Sports Pro Elite Repair Stands with tote bag delivered to Aus for $242

You've got to be careful with the red groupset on first glance it looks like it's about $200 cheaper than anywhere else. But they've listed a 1070 cassette instead of a 1090 XG which is about $180 cheaper.ray wrote:Merlin has some good deals on Sidi and groupsets as well.

I saw that light on pushys as well and it is also heavily discounted at around the same price. I tried searching for some info on it online but there is nothing. Seems like a good deal, but since I need a light for commuting, I needed something reliable and with a long run time. With the lack of information about the light I couldn't confirm either of these so didn't end up buying it. I am also low on money but if I wasn't I would definately buy the light just to try it out.timgrainger wrote:On the subject of Torpedo7 - I was going to post about their rollers (they're bare bones granted, but for $99 plus P&H, seems okay), but any thoughts on the Tioga 480 Lumen light they have for $35?

Beware that battery pack (as shown in the image) if you ever go riding in the wet. I got that style with my DX version and as soon as they get wet, the cardboard end caps soak up the water and 'rot' the electronic components underneath. Look for a version with the rubber boot cover (I had to buy one when the other failed) and even then, seal all the joints with silcone sealant.jasonc wrote:I was looking at this one for my roadie

The Tioga 480 looks like it's worth a punt at that price.
