    I thought so too. I wasn't buying, just wanted to know the price. I've already found an alternative reasonably priced.

    Don't do it, order what you want early so you get on the backorder list.

    Interesting… I’ve asked that before and been told no sorry. Maybe depends on the item? It’s definitely not their policy and maybe down to the assistant?

    Thats because the South Island is just plain better in every respect!!! (ducking to avoid the backlash )

    Costs are what they are you either pay and shoot or wait and hope it will be available for less

    Yep. 100% on both comments.
    Sadly, some of us are forced to live in the NI. Sika Deer make that somewhat bearable.

    It is spelt Ozark. Good dude. To door . No hassles apart from the courier driver put it over the fence. My young dog thought it was his new toy. Just got it time before he sunk his teeth into the bottle. No harm done.
