Eerrr that could possibly be my fault its only 5 minutes up the road from me and several UKCS members have asked me to pick them up for them saving them £5 p&p
In the little info-mercial that was on the US site, what are those little white 'bricks' they stick in first to light the fire and are you able to find them easily? Just curious as we don't own one but after watching the info-mercial..must say, they look really nice!

They are firelighters - able to get them just about anywhere that sells BBQ fuel etc.

yes it is old stock, it says its old stock, you get what you pay for after all.
And if you look at the date I posted my reply you will see that it's almost a month old , this IS the thread that's been on before.............................
Just a quick question, when any of you look for prices on the net for other users looking for a bargain do you all order and check out the stock first??
Because the way some of the posts that have been directed at me so far have been worded, they come across as very accusatory that you didn't all get the bargain of the century.
I posted a link to what appears to be a good price, from there on you have to check the fine print yourselves.
No, I thought that it was a price I was prepared to pay, but unfortunately the product wasnt fit for purpose, if it had been great, we all want bargins, so please keep posting when you see them. It is a case of some you win some you lose.
I personally only order if I want it, certainly not to check out.

Hi Firemoon ........ they are fire lighters and can be brought at any supermarket - DIY stores and any where you buy bbq coals ..... they light easliy and burn for several mins and will catch light to the coals
Just a quick question, when any of you look for prices on the net for other users looking for a bargain do you all order and check out the stock first?? ....... no I don't, I tend to answer from personal experience, especially when it's the Cobb - Double Skillet or Remoska (my three favourite cooking items - camping and at home) Because the way some of the posts that have been directed at me so far have been worded, they come across as very accusatory that you didn't all get the bargain of the century. ...... swing and roundabouts - I also have a Cadac which I got at what I thought was a good price, the day it arrived someone posted another company where selling it £25 cheaper - and to add insult to injury, over the last year I have found that peeps who brought theirs from the same company as me and from the other company, got bags for all the individual pieces and I NEVER boo hoo I posted a link to what appears to be a good price, from there on you have to check the fine print yourselves. ..... as I posted at the time it's good if you don't mind basic ...... have a friend who brought one from bbq warehouse, then paid £20.50 for non stick grill plate - £15 for a bag - £2.50 for a nicer handle - £7.50 for roasting rack and I do believe the cook book for £5 ........ could have got it cheaper from the Cobb man thro Ukcs ........ again answering from personal experience
Sometimes it can be difficult on forums, they way one writes and another reads ......... but very very very few peeps on here post to delibrately be nasty in any way
We all general just give our opinons as we feel them, with the intention to be helpful - just as you did ...... so keep them coming please
