Ok most of us are probably after some, but I'm after just one DMM 4CU (not a 3CU) cam from the outdoor show and not a set of 3 (as I have only lost one cam), so is there anyone going in a similar situation who would just want to get 2 (or 5) of them as they will almost certainly come at a good price for a set of 3??

Or similarly, are there 2 people out there that just want one cam each..?

I could be interested, but i was hoping they would bring the Dragons and then i'd buy them rather than a set of 4CUs.
If someone else wants to help you go with them, otherwise i'm sure we could work something out.

I would be very happy indeed if someone could purchase a size 2.5, 3 or 3.5 4CU (or dragon equivalent) for me as part of a deal. Obviously, I would pay you back.

I doubt they'll have dragons for sale at the show... Most stores have been after them for months, and they've yet to arrive. It'd be a bit annoying for the stores if people could buy them at the outdoors show, especially since the show tends to do discounts as well!

Anyhoo, I'm after some 4CU's . Maybe a 1.25 and another odd size, just for fun. Probs get a 1.5 as well since mine seems to have been a bit over used & worn.
Oh and also some of the small colourfully anodised snap-gates to colour code my rack. :)

Does anybody remember from last year how much they were charging for three 4CUs?? £60 or £70 springs to mind...

If I may be so bold as to post an alternate view Mr Brewer.
Companies releasing a new product need a stage from which to do so. Just opening them for general release in a shop is not publicity-grabbing enough than "release at the outdoor show".

Plus, for high-end products, to sell them cheaply is an advantage. For people who can't afford high-end or brand gear, a discount or low price will encourage them to do so.
To the shops and companies this is good because now there are people with their equipment walking around and 'showing it off'. Not everyone is going to be at the outdoors show, so people who look at others and think 'i could do with something like that' have to buy it at full retail price- in other words, 'free' advertising. In a related vein, this is outdoor equipment. For those who are not careful or by simple accidents, the equipment is almost certain to be damaged or broken. Then, those who have sets of expensive penises have a problem. They have got used to the pricier (and maybe better) gear and therefore are loathe to replace it with something 'lower'. Especially since they already have the majority of a set and so can justify buying one cam at a one-off price (full retail price= :-) for shops.

Yes. I have far too much time on my hands.

Fair point, but i've fallen on my 4CUs and Friends and they did the job they're supposed to do, so (relatively) cheap penises it is for me. Phil when you get there and when you know what deals they're offering, would you be so kind as to give me a ring? I may be climbing or belaying at the time, if so i'll call you back as soon as I can

nowt wrong with friends and 4cus, they do the job just fine, the pricier ones just have a bigger range

Forget I asked for someone to split a set of 3 penises with me, I got one from Cotswolds as they're pretty cheap with the discount and so I could have it for this weekend.
