    Just ordered a lot of outdoor wear. Extremely cheap and they have to be applauded for keeping the prices between pounds and euro near identical. So many companies take the mick with their exchange rates.

    Yes euro price is the same as pound price.
    Just make sure you change the currency from £ to Eur , top right hand corner of the website.

    I'd say they're terrible to be honest.
    I didn't know there was one and had a look after you posted that.

    I wouldn't touch the €0.99c ones I'd find that a waste of 99cents... wink.png

    The ones under a tenner can be matched by decent well known brands if you look around.

    I saw Creative EP-630 headphones for £8stg on Amazon a few weeks ago. They seem to be sold out now, but are available on Amazon France.

    Sony MDR-J10L Over Ear earphone are available for £6.50 on Amazon


    They may not be the best Earphones ever, but they are great for those prices.

    Look up Sennheiser on Amazon for decent quality Headphones under €20. They have amazing quality ones going up in the 100's, but sticking under €20..

    If you look around you'll see loads of good deals on earphones..:)

    I bought a pair of Adidas and a pair of Puma for myself, and sizes were perfect.

    Got my nephew a pair of the Donnay Golf shoes and a pair of Adidas Predator astro turf, and both them were grand too..

    Are the sizes issues people are having a new thing, or is it only 1 in 10?

    I was going to order a pair of THESE but this is the third time this week i've heard someone mentioning sizes.. (going to look back over the thread.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,608 ✭✭✭breadmonkey


    Is the €1 delivery some sort of special offer to ROI. I'm trying to get stuff delivered to a UK address and it's charging me £4!


  • Registered Users Posts: 181 ✭✭BRAIN FEEDs


    i ordered €12 lonsdale trainers i think,size 11......... way too tight,could have done with a 12,a size ive never worn in my life,and im finished growing a long time ago.:)

    Yes I know what you mean....I have never had to buy a size 12 so their sizes must vary or my feet grew bigger overnight !!!!

    Doubt so. It's a selling point that would be worth mentioning in the product description if it was.

    No, and it's not very good at blocking wind either.

    Check out the Waterproofs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,027 ✭✭✭jpb1974


    Since ordering I'm getting bombarded with email from them.

    I've already unsubscribed twice and am still getting 2-3 emails a day.

    Got my big order today. Full set of golf clubs (ridiculous for €1 delivery) and loads of gear, only one problem and that was a golf polo that was meant to be XL was Small, not a big deal but I've no use for it.

    Of course, no mug.

    Got my Dunlop case today.. great for under a tenner!

    If you think the arm / pulley for it is a little short, give it a good yank to release it the full way... otherwise you'll be cripped with back pain trying to pull it along! :D

    No mug but got one already anyways.

    Sure can't you use the polo to clean your golf clubs!

    I agree, I think it's very good quality (17" one) for 8.99, great bargain this.

    Got my Adidas Ripstop Trainers today (I paid €30)

    Also got THESE Dunlop Waterproofs (I Paid €11.99)

    and THESE Karrimor Sierra Waterproofs (I paid €19.99)

    Adidas Trainers are a perfect fit, i ordered them in my size.
    Dunlop are much nicer then i was expecting, but they have a lining in them, makes them a bit warm, Doubt they'll be suitable for the summer. Rain yes, but they do not let in much air.

    The Karrimor have a weird fit, they're long. But they are nice, airy and comfortable.
    They have a Big Union Jack Logo On the Thigh. It doesn't show up in those pictures, but it's unmissable on them.
    I won't be wearing them, will try and send them back and say they're too long, because they are a bit anyway.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 31,117 ✭✭✭✭snubbleste


    The Karrimor logo.. did you not know this?

    Nope.
    Never even heard of them. When i did notice their logo, i checked them out before i bought them

    Zoomed in an out No sign of the logo on them anywhere, so i decided to go for them. The logo is big, and noticeable. :mad: Can't wear them.

    It's the same reason i bought the Adidas instead of THESE.
