Terra Circa / Mondo Enduro?
Interested in buying the Terra Circa & Mondo Enduro DVD's.
Tried but failed to find them at the NEC Bike Show yesterday.
I know that Overland Solutions sell them both but at £19.99 each + P&P + 17.5% VAT, it starts to get a little expensive.

Steve, Please go to http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/books/books2.shtml and click the link and send them a mail, and let us know what they come back with. SHOULD be a fair price, and we get a piece of it, but I'd like to know if Overland Solutions is depp discounting or what's up.
Thanks, Grant

Note they quoted me some time ago:
DVD for £19.99 or Video for £16.99 plus postage and handling
If that's changed I need to know!

Grant,
Was quoted £19.99 per DVD + £2.00 P&P + Tax, that comes out at £49.33 for both DVDs which is expensive IMO?
Aimimage quote £24.99 for DVD & £21.46 for video, although I believe this is an inclusive price.
Should I decide to buy them, I'm more than willing to buy them from whoever supports this site - let me know who's best in this regard?

I talked to Austin Vince a couple of years ago when he was at the HU UK Meeting, and he explained that it was very expensive to produce, his profit is tiny, and since the market is also tiny in comparison to music and movie dvd's, that's what the price comes out to. The Terra Circa video IS great, very well done - I have one, and can recommend it.
As for who to buy it from, the best is direct from aimimage and tell them clearly that you learnt about it through us, then we get a couple of quid. You can call them direct. Let me know if you do buy it, so I can check that they're fulfilling their end of the deal and paying me!
Next choice would be Overland Solutions, they do advertise with us. And of course let them know I sent you!
Thanks, Grant

Hi Grant
I bought both DVDs on line from Aimimage yesterday, then 'phoned to let them know where I'd heard about them.
Over to you!

An hour and a half DVD couldn't really do justice to that trip and so much was just skipped over that could have made great viewing. Just a wish though, not a criticism, it was great to watch.
