TQ:AU:1123 Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 2Aug 10, 2011 3:44 pm There is no catch, I have purchased 2 from this very seller. I purchased the 1st one about 12 months ago, and have been using it in my old ensuite, this has now been switched the main bathroom, and the other one I purchased about a month ago. They have put the price up since I purchased my first one. I only paid $175 for that, and the one I recently purchased was $183. Might be worth contacting them and asking for their best price. I purchased the shower mixer locally, as hubby was worried if there was anything wrong with it he could return it to the local plumbing supplier . With the plumber discount from the local store, there was only about $20 difference for the mixer. Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 3Aug 10, 2011 3:53 pm TBT....that eBay seller is fantastic. I bought a laundry tub from them and it arrived well packaged and within a day or two which was great because I needed it in a hurry as the builder supplied a small one which wouldn't hold the water from the washing machine and refused to do anything about it and of course, I needed to be able to do the washing. Still got the supplied laundry tub, must get organised and list it on eBay or Gumtree, thanks for the reminder. Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 4Aug 10, 2011 6:14 pm I bought two Futura rail showers from that ebay seller. Message him for a price if you're buying more than one - I got two with free postage to Melbourne, from memory it worked out at $155 each. They arrived quickly with good packaging. If only our job would start I could see what they're like... Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 5Aug 11, 2011 1:05 pm Cheers guys. So what happens if something goes wrong? Do you have to send it back to the seller or Methven? Who pays for postage? And what if the seller goes out of business? Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 6Aug 11, 2011 2:37 pm I don't know for sure, but I would think it is Methven that offers the warranty. I have just gone and fished out our new one to go in the ensuite and it says on the back of the packaging 'The warranty statement shall apply to all tapware and showers supplied by Methven, for more information visit www.methven.com.au" Down futher is states on the packaging "Lifetime replacement guarantee" Not sure what parts that relates to? Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 7Nov 10, 2011 5:37 am Hi I know that this is an old thread, but I just wanted to add a quick update. I went to the physical store of that eBay seller yesterday and I can't speak highly enough of them. Their warehouse is in an industrial back street and isn't flash like a Reece or Tradelink showroom, but the prices make up for it. It is a family run business, and the staff are friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. They are a reputable plumbing supply firm and I wouldn't have any concern about warranty - eBay is just a small part of their business. I needed 4 bathrooms of taps and showers and I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted. The staff member took down my requirements and came back in about 5 minutes with all of the pricing. Very good discounts with no need to haggle. They even carried the box to my car. Paul Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 8Nov 10, 2011 7:13 am Thanks for the feedback Paul....while I had bought a laundry tub from them and was 100% happy it was all done online as it wasn't worth my while to drive several hours for one item, but their online service was fantastic and I couldn't fault them for that. Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 9Dec 03, 2012 10:49 pm It's been over a year since the last post in this thread and the ebay link no longer works. Can anyone provide a current link to this ebay seller, or details if the company name and address/phone number? Re: Cheap Methven Futura satin jet on ebay 10Dec 04, 2012 12:02 am I've saved that seller on my 'puter at home, but I'm not home now and won't be for a while. However, a search on eBay for Methven turned up several sellers, but I cannot recall which one it was that was mentioned above. If you still really want to know, make a note in your diary and send me a PM in about two weeks. Cheers, P_D .
