Re: This Is NOT Spam
I have been to the JTF several times in Preston and many of their tools are very cheap, but normally they are cheap makes.
I have never seen Ryobi for sale there in the past, but I'll definately check it out when I have time
Thanks for the info

Re: This Is NOT Spam
I'll be paying them a visit as soon as I get chance
The last time I went there I bought a set of the JML screw extractors and when I got home I realised that there was one missing from the packet
The only problem is that they might have all the Haloween stuff in, so I might have to sneak there without the other half or she'll be buying all sorts of rubbish

Re: This Is NOT Spam
Just roll up Nick, all the banners say open to the public to register.
Wife went with her niece last week and forgot my card so she made herself a member as did the niece, sister-in-law and our daughter. Just need a driving licence or something with your address on it.
These invites come with the flyer.
I have just done a 'big' shop for Chez, for some prizes at a Gala, and there was plenty of stuff left.
Guy looked at me funny when I chucked 10 Fatmax tapes into the trolley, but they are the genuine dogs danglies.

Re: This Is NOT Spam
Just be aware that they display all of their prices ex-VAT, and that the shelf edge labels don't say that. In fact, there's nothing anywhere visible to indicate that you'll be paying 20% more that the marked price. And they even put the RRP (which includes VAT) on some things to show how much you're "saving".
They're still cheap, but not quite as cheap as they first appear.

Re: This Is NOT Spam
I am a bit suspicious of this post?
If there is any truth in it, how come I can't find a branch in London?

Re: This Is NOT Spam
Prob struggling to find one in london BECAUSE THERE IS NOT ONE !!! They are solely a northern company and so from their website you will see all their branch locations. I have been there and their is nothing to be suspicious of. They prob cannot afford the price of a unit in london as you would prob only get a postage stamp sized plot of land for a huge cost.

As Sparky says they only have a few warehouses and don't do any interwebby trading.
They trade in the north, as my first post informed you:
JTF Warehouses can be found at 11 locations throughout the country:
Mansfield, Hucknall, Sheffield, Lincoln, Stoke, Newcastle, Warrington, Preston, Leeds, Peterboro, Tamworth.
