Snow hiking, sled/toboggan bulk buy

Postby Dutchy » Sat 02 Apr, 2016 10:07 am

Hi all!
With temperatures dropping we are getting excited about winter!!! After lugging packs on our backs through the snow in past years, we are now looking at buying sleds/toboggans to tow along!
Most of the nicer bigger ones would come from the US and I'm thinking of buying a pack of them. Some packs have 12 in them.
Just seeing if anyone wants to buy some if I'd buy a 12 pack. We'd take 2, so possibly 10 to sell. Subject to the model, about $40 - $60 each.

Check shipping costs
When we did the calculations before deciding to bring a 6-pack of the paris sleds in as personal sporting goods the alternative shipping as freight was in the hundreds of dollars

EDIT
These are the people I wanted to buy from originally but when I put the items into the shopping cart I got some ridiculously high postage cost

it stipulated $10 postage, ridiculous as postage from the US normally is really expensive! Regardless, bringing stuff in from either the US or Europe is easier if you buy a pack. If people are interested, i'll get to work on it!

The Aldi ones are OK for the money but when I saw them last year I thought they were far too LW and flimsy for hauling gear in but they are cheap and 3 of them in a sled train would work
