 We are pleased to announce that Buachaille have teamed up with Snow and Rock and will shortly be showing all their products and prices. This takes the number of outdoor gear retailers featured on Buachaille.com to over 20. Snow and Rock have been selling gear for over 25 years and have grown from 1 shop to 20 during that time. In our experience (from one too many excessive shopping trips to their Covent Garden store), S & R staff are well trained and knowledgeable. In terms of pricing, Snow & Rock are fairly competitive and they tend to run some great sales (there's one going on right now). They also have an "Outlet" section offering gear for rock bottom prices (up to 50% off). Please note, these "Outlet" offers are only available online. The only place we think S & R could improve is on their delivery charges. For orders up to £50, delivery costs £3.95 which isn't too bad but if your order exceeds £50 then it jumps to £6.95 which we feel is a bit steep. Most gear shops work in reverse (i.e. you usually get free delivery if your order is over £X). We should have all S & R products added by early next week. |
Bargain of the Day - Rab Latok Alpine Jacket - Tuesday, March 17, 2009
 Snow and Rock are selling the Latok Alpine from Rab for £108 (RRP £180). As always, there is a catch - it's only available in red and they only have Small and Extra Large left. Also the £6.95 delivery charge is a bit on the steep side. In any case, you're getting a 4 season (at a push in the UK) Rab waterproof jacket for 115 quid so it's still a nice deal. |
