I've found a very good deal on a website called SnowInn,
I've never heard of them before and although there are plenty of Reviews on their site, you never know
Has anyone bought from them before? |
I woudl be very careful clearly they use AI to respond to customer questions so they never really answer questions and waste your time.

I’ve bought plenty from them. Generally had a very good experience and some good deals. Bought skis with bindings from them - more than 50% off and arrived in around 7 days. They also sort out VAT and duty so price you see is price you pay.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

2 weeks ago, I bought a pair of skis from them (line blades) at pretty much a 40% discount for the current years model, I was sceptical at first, the old adage of “if it seems too good to be true it usually is”.
However the skis arrived just over a week later, no import duties or vat to pay, they have a vat number so assume it’s taken care of their end.
Only gripe would be that the packaging wasn’t fantastic but the skis arrived in perfect condition none the less!
Would highly recommend Snowinn, based on my experience.

Used them just before half term for a Superdry jacket the teen had to have! Was £100 cheaper than any other site, even with the tax and higher postage costs. Did worry we had been ripped off as had read the reviews, but took a chance. Arrived by the date stated. Ordered a pair of Cebe googles two days later, once again it was all about the look for the teen in question . Her twin is happy with good Decathlon stuff but this one only wants the trendy! Arrived by the date stated. We crossed our fingers but had back-ups just in case the items ordered did not arrive.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Yes. delivery can take a while as from Spain. just note the £135 rule or you'll be paying VAT duty extra on receipt.

@t44tomo, From the Snow Inn website:
‘Will I be asked to pay additional VAT or duty charges upon receiving my parcel in the United Kingdom?
No, the price on our website will be the final cost to you. There will be no additional VAT or duty charges requested on delivery by our carriers. We have done all we can to prepare for Brexit in the best way possible to offer the best experience for the customer.’
This has been my experience.

Just received an order from them, took a long time to come, maybe 6 weeks or so, everything arrived intact although a little shoddily packed. However....the main item which was an expensive ski jacket still had the security tag on....very frustrating. Trying to get them to send a tool out so I can remove it or refund me enough money to buy one, but they want me to send it back which I'm not really willing to do, given how many people seem to have had bad experiences with their returns, as well as the sheer time it takes for the process. May just bite the bullet and buy one of the tools.

@menatarms, depending on the type of tag you might be able to get it off with a magnet, or perhaps there's someone a YouTube video of someone removing one for you?

I've watched a few but can't find one yet with quite the same type (it's like a smooth cone), also fairly certain it's the type with ink in it so I'm a bit wary of trying.
