    I would advise anyone that they buy rather carefully ... I just got a pair of Stealth Deluxe Felt wading boots on "special" for R950.00. That means the boots in their pre-50% off state would have been R1900.00. I HIGHLY doubt this is the RRP for these boots. Might just have been taken for a nice long ride, but let this serve as a warning to some perhaps.

    Their website shows this: http://www.flyshops.co.za/shop/index...productId=1277 (R1180) so means sale price should have been R590.

    Deluxe RUBBER boot selling for R1160 FULL RETAIL somewhere else ...

    OUCH!

    Did your deal include some vaseline? At least you helped a fellow FF out. I will be popping in later the week, hopefully for a bargain.

    Vaseline was another R35 extra - RRP was R28 a tub!

    Hi Mario

    Both those websites are derelict.

    And if that's what you are paying for Stealth at full retail, there is only one way to go.

    Regards

    You're either fishing or waiting...

    Agreed Mike - but I know the RRP is around R1300 for those boots. This is what happens when you don't deal with a premium shop. I'll take this hiding, but will remember the lesson well.
