My Kite! :)

[Mad Armour]

Wah lau, you are not helping! But actually, I kinda prefer the shape of the Buster...altho Radsail aesthetics more pleasing...

So I guess you sticking with Buster 3m?

Yah, I guess I'm a wuss. Chrip....chirp.

[nightbreed]

Wuss? Heheh, maybe I'll be the one crying after being dragged halfway to my death...

Anyway, I'll be e-mailing Bilboquet to ask them if Buster going to be on sale...no point ordering now and then find out they having 30% off later or something...I think they will reply by Saturday...in which case we might already find out from the site if there's a discount.

yeow_hwee, I tink there's really no diff in whether it's pro or what...you going str8 to quad lines...so might as well get a nice, big one. Buster 3m is about SGD260...the Radsail 4m is about SGD320...$60 difference (and abt $4 cheaper than Buster 4m) for a whole lotta kite...

Oh nuts...Ozone Fury has 10% off...Bloody hell...

[yeow_hwee]

I am more keen on the buster 3m. Its the limit of my budget already. Dun intend to spend more than $300 including shipping.

Could you email them whether are they going to have a sale on buster 3 or not ? Or tell them we are taking 3 kites, can have further discount or not ?

I think the radsail kite would be more acrobatic than buster. It should be harder to control. Buster is usually refered to as a beginner kite. Maybe you would do well with the radsail as you already have experience with the ozone imp.

Thanks alot.

Heheh...done all you asked. just sent the e-mail. Ok. So far it's Buster 3m for you and MA, Fury 3m for me (yes, I've decided). Now we wait for their reply.

Oh, please be informed, the site says total cost if w/o tax...whatever that means...donno how much more, if any. So far, my int'l orders got no tax frm anywhere...MA, can confirm?

[Mad Armour]

[Mad Armour]

Solid! Less freight for all. Hand itchy now, but it's pouring.

Light rain still can fly. I did for 2+ hours the other day. Just wear a cap to keep your head dry, a plastic bag to keep your bag dry and you're good! Today seems like a rain-all-day day. If by 5 still like that, then no hope...

I was thinking of getting the wind meter...

I already have a bicycle helmet and roller blade knee pads.

now, just need to buy more insurance.

Can we get direct from pkd kites ? or need larger quantity

Can just add in lah...they have a few anemometers . Just take your pick.

[nightbreed]

No need, lah. Just agar. Got wind, fly. No wind, try.

I also did consider an anemometer...but to spend money so that I know wind speed...agar is free.

[Mad Armour]

For a moment, I was wondering why they are selling anemones.

[nightbreed]

Ok, just got reply from Bilboquet. NO further sale on Buster. Their inventory for the 3m is LOW. So, they advise placing order soon.

Shipping by economic is now 60Euro. If you go by the normal shipping (as reflected in the site's order form, it's 41Euro. Whatever it is, I'm Ok. yeow_hwee, can you confirm your order?

So far, order stands at:
1. PKD Buster 3m X 02
2. Ozone Fury 3m (Orange) X 01

MA, I guess if you adding stuff, just have to do the math. Sorry to inconvenience you. Let us know approximate cost per person after you submit order so we can put aside $. But I'll be expecting some differences in approx cost and actual cost due to bank's exchange rate. Currently, it's abt SGD1.97 to 1Euro.

So, everybody, let's make things happen!

[yeow_hwee]

I am fine too...

no further discount on buster 3m ?

we will be dividing the 41Euro shipping among 3 of us ?

Bring it on !
