If anyone is wanting one of these they won't be dissapointed it's a great bit of kit.
You can take it basically anywhere you want.
It's a bit heavy on your shoulders when full but i put mine on a suitcase trolley for now but have carried it for some awkward cleans.
I use mine to do top windows only and clean the bottom traditionally.
Because of this the battery lasts for ages but i would get a spare battery as it is annoying when it runs out halfway through a clean.
I think i have worked out this wfp as for the last 2 weeks i have found no spots on any cleans. I've even been given a couple of quid extra when collecting.
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Andrew

Why is it that people are importing these from the USA when backpacks are available in the UK? Do they have some advantage like pricing or extra features that aren't usually available on other backpacks?
It looks like I will be heading for WFP sooner than I originally thought and would like to know a few details please. If it's viable and not too much trouble, I may want to buy one as well.

Many thanks,

Paul

The advatages on this particular item is a saving of over £50.

The pricing is as follows: -

Purchase price $161.95

Postage & Packing $70.00

Bid Pay fees $ 11.75

Total Dollar price $243.70

£133.70 at todays exchange rate

An import charge of around about £20 brings the price to £153.70

This item can be supplied in the UK, however the cheapest price is in or around £175 + P&P + VAT = £223.25

Hope answers your questions

Andrew

Post by: Thecleanerservice on September 14, 2005, 04:52:10 pm: Thanks Andrew helpful breakdown, and looks to me like a practical way of breaking in to the wfp market. But I still know more about Sea cucumbers than I do about wfp systems. If you've got anymore info I'd be grateful, or if it's all been said before you might know the link. I'l trawl through the back catalogue in the meantime.
