Anyone else visit the shop on Regent street? They had a sale on when I was there on Friday, my partner and I paid less than £250 for £800's worth of clothing! Strange but they would not give me 70% off the Exige S in the shop! First time I have seen one in the flesh... Wow I want one.....

They've had some pretty big savings online as well - 50% off the Originals range and 20% off everything else.

70% off the Exige wouldn't have been a great deal - it's the show car and doesn't run. smile

I was just about to buy a t shirt and a ruck sack for £47, then on check out the delivery cost was a huge £23.98 !!! An off peak return train ticket to London could be less than that ha ha?

That level of discounting sounds like they may actually be selling stuff for what it's worth.

Problem is they ship from Italy.

Sure it wasn't that expensive when I ordered a few bits though.

And you're paying Italian VAT at 21%.

Once you've logged in it knows where you are and charges UK VAT.

Yep, recalculates at the checkout.

Shame they don't detect your country based on IP before hand though as a lot of people seem to complain about it.

Five days to go for the 50% discounts. Think I'm going to pop into their Regent Street store & pick me up a bright yellow T and a Type 72 Sweatshirt in blue, before you ask! smile
