edited 28 February 2011 at 8:12AM in It's gone, but was it any good?
EDIT: Postage has been reduced to £9.99 now.

EDIT AGAIN: Thanks to new code found by teapackets the total this seat is now is 52.99! delivered. :) If the code does not work, the delivered price is 60 pounds with the original fiver off code and 8% cashback.


Just been looking at prices of these and saw this one in Robert Dyas for £60 reduced due to slightly damaged packaging RRP £99. Delivery for next day and named is £15. EDIT all deliveries are £9.99 now inc saturday delivery.

Topcashback are offering 8%

EDIT: Thanks to teapackets a new code of 20% is available which takes a whopping 12 squid off the total! I've put the code under the link below.
voucher here.

So £60 + £9.99= £69.99

20% voucher off= £57.99

£5 cashback= £52.99. :j

    Brilliant, I've been after one of these for ages and this looks a good buy.

    There is also 8% on quidco btw.

    I wasn't amused to find that, if I'd had ordered it a day later, I would have saved £5 on delivery.
    So I wrote a polite email asking if they would refund me as a good will gesture.

    I've just a phone call from a very nice lady who told me they would be happy to refund the £5.01.

    So I'd call that excellent customer service, not just the refund, but a polite telephone call as well.
    Top Marks to Robert Dyas.

    Brilliant news, I've never used them before but will again in the future, not sure why they dropped the postage like that was very strange, hope others do the same and get that extra fiver back to spend on here :T
  • Quidco has an offer where you can get free standard delivery if you spend £30 or more but when you click on it and add something to the cart, it adds the £9.99 for delivery. Any ideas? Thanks

    No i tried free delivery code but it didn't work so i stuck with the £5 off code :) would have been nice to get both code to work though!.

    We didn't really want one with cushions either. Otherwise you've just got to find storage for them somewhere and keep taking them in and out.

    Also, having sat on alot of these in garden centres, there is a big difference between them. Cheap ones are nasty and flimsy, which tbh, looks like the one on ebay. The one I got from RD looks much more robust. But, only time will tell, I'm not going to put it together till it's much warmer.
