You'd have to be pretty incompetent not to be able to blag a trade card. I went into a Makro once. It smelled of rotting meat and other groceries. I went out again and threw the trade card away. Costco is a bit better. At least that doesn't smell. |

I had a quick look a this type, and the frame tubes seemed a bit thin and may not last too long under use. Have any users got any comments? It does not seem as study as the UK made Belle ones, and I presume that these are just cheaply made in china. dg |

Call it brand snobbery if you like, but I have yet to see anything with a Kinzo badge that is not pretty nasty.... (even screwfix had to resort to giving away kinzo angle grinders as a free gift when you ordered cutting discs as a way to stop the things coming back!) -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
