Anyone know any decent places that have decent prices? Cotswold don't really have a large range... ( Only 2 types of five ten and no sportiva according to their website and these are the brands i want to try out....)

Just go into rock on at redpoint, you get really good advice there

I'd second Michaf C. Any of the Rock On staff are better than any of the Cotswolds staff. They've got a much better range as well. Failing that, Snow and Rock in town may be worth a look.

Yer, i quite like Rock on, it's where i got my chilli's. They gave me some good advice, but at the time, my decision was based on the fact that they were bright red! To be honest i'm just being a little picky and i'm after somewhere with a large range... I'll probably just end up getting them from Rock on again...

Snow and Rock wasn't even worth looking at. Hardly any shoes, and carp advice.

Shoes: My drinking team has a climbing problem

http://www.rockrun.com/

is a fantastic place to find bargains! But if you're shopping on the net you really need to know the sizes of climbing shoe you're used to and the models or at least brands that fit best (as obviously you can't try them on).
I got some red chillis for £30 off here once!!! amazing place.

another fantastic website for climbing gear (mostly cheap boudering mats) is alpkit.com

Hope this helps.

try http://www.v12outdoor.com, they have a good selection if you've got an idea of what fits you.
http://www.highsports.co.uk have a good selection of madrocks, fivetens and evolvs if they tickle your fancy.

But yeah, go to redpoint, that's the best place for advice and fittings and all that, which is the most important bit.
