We need to get to 25 of these little beauties to make the £117.50/pcs price break.
Price includes taxes but not shipping which will be your choice of courier/service and will cost whatever it costs - nothing added, nothing taken away
The story so far is:
P1t8ull 2
Dave 5
Non PL 6
Dr Lava 2
FourDee 2
Xytrell 2
Mike Hemlock 1
MechEng3 1
= 21
Any other takers?
