I'd still get a shuffle on if I were you. I don't think he'll be losing sleep over a set of bindings.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Well luckily for me I've now managed to get enough QK inserts & screws back under my retention of title clause to cover what was owed to me.
@2planks, did you manage to get your stuff?

@spyderjon, yes managed to combine a visit to my mum's with the administrators being at the shop so got my bindings and credit card refunded for the skis.
Thanks for giving me the contact details !

I've just caught up with this as I've had an email notification of an online auction next month.
We've had quite a lot of kit from them over the years and sad to hear ...

Unfortunately for me there are not any DPS skis on the list that I want/need (under the n+1 rule).
I missed the sale when Spyderjon bought out the DPS stock when 47 Degrees shutdown.

@spyderjon, Are you planning on buying anything from Edge auction?? If so you should set yourself up a delivery service for those of us who can't get there ;-P

I'm already registered with Bidspotter & there are a few items I'd be interested in but unless I was to win them all at the right price it's not worth the full day/400 mile round trip for me to collect them. If it had a been a physical auction with online bids as well then I think I would've gone but with online only if I win just one item then I'm screwed. And it's definitely not worth me going to the viewing day.
If anyone is interested in the Wintersteiger SBI machine (I'm not BTW), then I know quite a bit about the condition/commissioning costs of that actual machine which I'd be happy to share.

Depends what you mean by "courier". Auctioneers won't package and label stuff for UPS or whoever to collect. But you could send a more specialised courier who would need to act as your representative - so unlikely to be cost effective.

@PaulC1984, Lots of gloves, etc. seem to be tied up in large packages for resale on ebay.

@beequin, lol thanks.
I only need 2 pairs and was looking at the hestra heated gloves. Was also looking at the zipfits, ortovox jacket, some of the bags, carbon poles, and other bits and bobs. Not that I need any more kits but I never like to turn down a bargain if it can be had  (not that it would be a bargain if I had to pay a courier to travel 300 plus miles for a pair of gloves lol )

The target market is really other trade retailers.

You collect from E&W's premises at Partridge Green which is just north of Brighton.

I'd be interested in a couple of bits but collection again is the issue for me....any enterprising locals that wish to make a few quid collecting and sending on?

Is it just me or is that a very wide range of somewhat exotic skis?
With no option to put into a hire fleet?

@SnoodyMcFlude, I like your plan.
Spoke to the auction today. They said that there maybe the possibility to extend the collection period to the Tuesday after the bank hol IF there is enough people requesting it.
Email them with this request and if there's enough of us they will try to oblige

If i find anything i need I would be happy to go down for folks in S Mids (Worcs, Warwicks, Glos etc) and they can pick from me and share petrol costs. Just strating to look through but the body armour seems a no brainer
