Has anyone returned tyres to Black Circles? Cost?
Discussion
Aside of whether you can get them to restock them or not.
Unless it states in the Ts & Cs that they will cover return postage that will likely make up the difference between the 2 prices anyway.
Measure/weigh them & check on parcel2go/interparcel/parcel monkey for an idea of postage costs, not forgetting insurance cost.
The last time I sent a pair I sold on ebay it was around £25/pair.

Just got x4 PS4 for my son's Clio for £299 this week but the GY F1 5 are now £231 typically.
I can't get through to them so has anyone recently returned tyres within 14 days and how much did they charge for the favour ?
Thanks
Do you need a valid reason for return though ?I can't get through to them so has anyone recently returned tyres within 14 days and how much did they charge for the favour ?

Simply changing your mind isn't really a valid reason is it ?

Distance selling regulations means you can return within 14 days without a reason but the seller can charge you reasonable shipping costs and can also deduct an amount if the goods have been inspected beyond what would be "reasonable". I agree that the return shipping cost will be just the same as the difference between the existing and replacement tyres, so why bother?Simply changing your mind isn't really a valid reason is it ?

Cheers. They charged £12 for delivery so I'll speak to them on Monday and see how much they want for the return logistic, if it is £12 again then I'll go for that. If not I'll just keep them or sell them when the black Friday deal stops. nickfrog said:

Somehow places like this get great deals on outgoing shipping.If you were to try and post a tyre back...no chance you'd get that same deal.
Distance selling or not, it's a dick move.
I've used Paisley Freight before to ship wheels and tyres. They quote £37 for 4x 18" tyres.

Spoken to them today and they are having them picked up tomorrow at no cost to me. They're even refunding the orignal postage.
Can't say fairer than that.

I am not sure returning the tyres was such a dick move. It is only saving £70 but for my son that's probably a week worth of beer consumption at Uni...

Interesting but I think they were an excellent choice for a Clio 200 until the GY were £231 on a BF deal from Blackcircles too 2 days later. He is on a well paid 12 month internship in FMCG so not gonna break the bank. This will be his first track day car too next year, not that the PS4 are ideal but even at £75 each I think that was excellent value. What would you have chosen for that car as a student?

I too am curious as to why a Uni student's life isn't worth putting the best tyres you can get on a car?
Indeed - in fact I was tempted to put some AD08Rs but he probably would have used all the grip even in the wet 
.Plus they are 50% more expensive which is a lot of beer.
