can you put some prices up on your site Thylo?
**** it pisses me off when sites don't give a price

Thylacine 07-12-06 09:09 PM

I think I have a can of spray-on tan and a pair of King-Gees around here somewhere :lol:

Kotter, looking at a way to put the prices in there. Problem is, there's different prices for different countries. Here's some Tephra prices for the record (getcha pens out) -

Tephra - AUD2550
Tephra SL - AUD2765
Tephra Sc - AUD2895
Tephra Ti - AUD3670
Tephra Ti SL - AUD4670
Tephra CTi - AUD4995 (hush hush)

Why do you charge differently for other countries?
Should I get patty to reroute one through the states because its cheaper? :lol:

badsac 07-12-06 09:21 PM

Exchange rates?

Why's the Ti SL a grand cheaper? Two letters are getting dear these days.

Everything is priced differently in every country. Haven't you ever bought a coffee in Japan before? :D

The Tephra Ti SL is double butted Reynolds Titanium, the Ti is Ancotech straight guage. The Reynolds tubeset costs an absolute packet. The 6-4 version is even more....as in....downtube is 250 bucks. :eek:

Shhh. That's what is special about the Ti SL. Self heating for Melbourne winters :D

Causes too many accidents. You seen what happens when you try to hug your frame at 40kph?

Bloody hell. My local doctors office is free. Bulkbilled GP's, CT scans, ultrasound, pathology... no gap. Is that what a CT scan really costs?

HDTVKSS 07-12-06 11:34 PM

Sucks that SBS coverage doesn't start until 10pm. :( We have already missed the HC climb over the Tourmelet. From the cycling news live rport it looks like a few boys are doing it tuff today.

Sucks even more that we have to put up Garry Gatt and a half hour of absolute drivel before we get to any cycling. Why can't we just go straight into cycling? And while I'm on a roll, why the hell can't they show some of the stages in their entirety? :mad:
