You can pay with postal order, only cost a £1 or 2  ;)
With a PO it should be faster than a cheque  :)

i really need to find a shop near to me so i can go pick em up unless i find someone with paypal coz paypal gives ur money back if something goes wrong. does anyone else no any shops near to kent where they sell pro jumpers

Well I believe you can send a cheaque to Projump --tho you have to wait for it to clear b4 dispatch. I believe Carma saw some rather dodgy ( and illeagal ) versions sold in a Kent market a day or 2 ago --but you seriously do not want to go there.

Oh and being the pedant that I am, you state you want to know of a shop 'near kent'. Do you mean you specifically do not want to purchase from a shop in Kent?  Cos I have just been vaguelly told of 1 in Reading ( well on Xchrimbl Day my sister said to me 'We saw a shop that sells your things in Reading last week')

We accept paypal too but only post out to the confirmed card holder address.

Why dony you ask somebody that lives near you to order them for you and you give them the cash when they arrive? Or your parents?
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: GRS on January 06, 2008, 03:11:47 AM
Pro-Jump offer an option to take paypal if thats what you need, good luck thou and hope you get your  :PJ1: soon  :)
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: DJ MIDNIGHT on January 06, 2008, 10:26:38 AM
i wonna do it by paypal but i dont have it so i wud have to find somebody that has it and ask them if i cud use it and give them the money init. also does anyone no if paypal give you all your money back if something bad happens or do they only give a percentage of it back
 :woohoo:
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: Spud on January 06, 2008, 11:12:43 AM
If your stuff gets lost in the post then nope...that is down to what type of postage you have got on it and the courier. But with ebay I think they will give you the money back if it never gets sent and then they get the money vbck for them later.... I think. Paypal is ok but using a credit card is proberly safer because then if something does go wrong/ fraud they sort it. But you cant do that with a debit card.

There is no 100% safe method which is annoying...

Post by: DJ MIDNIGHT on January 06, 2008, 11:35:05 AM
my mum really wans me to get them from a shop but i dont want to because there selling for bout 180 in shops and only 135 online :banghead:
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: Spud on January 06, 2008, 11:38:46 AM
This seems frustrating...I dont know what to say now. Something fairly simple has been made kinda tricky for you. Why does she want you to get them from a shop?
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: DJ MIDNIGHT on January 06, 2008, 12:04:31 PM
because she dont trust ebay as my sister got cond 100 pound because my sister payed for the item but ebayer didnt send the package
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: Spud on January 06, 2008, 12:16:53 PM
Would your mum pay the difference or the shop price match? Did you ever get that £100 back?
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: DJ MIDNIGHT on January 06, 2008, 12:28:15 PM
nope no money back because she used postal order in other words she put 100 pound in an envolope and sent it off
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: rickbicker26 on January 06, 2008, 12:29:33 PM
theres plenty of site to buy the projumps off that arent ebay, http://www.projumps.co.uk/ (http://www.projumps.co.uk/) is just one of them, i got mine from http://www.ukgooddeals.com/pp/Jumping_Stilts/ProJump-Stilts/Adult-ProJump-Jumping-Stilts.html (http://www.ukgooddeals.com/pp/Jumping_Stilts/ProJump-Stilts/Adult-ProJump-Jumping-Stilts.html)

She should have taken the slip off the side !? That why people use them to prove it's their money that's been cashed and it should be covered !?

Does your mum think buying Pro-Jump from the shop via EBAY is a bad idea ?
There's 100's of us who brought via EBAY ! :thumbs:

Why would they want to con £150 from you ?  :-\

Credit cards also have to pay the money back on purchases of over £100 if the goods you paid for dont turn up..

You could always find The Royal Bank of Scotland near you and pay that way if you got them through www.ukgooddeals.com that way you know for certain that the money goes straight into there account and no one elses, http://www.ukgooddeals.com/sitepage/Payment.html (http://www.ukgooddeals.com/sitepage/Payment.html)

naz could give u more details about the direct cash deposit.

Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: English-tailor on January 08, 2008, 05:49:57 PM
Buy directly from Projump online, they are very trustworthy and they give good after sales service. If your mum wants to be sure you wont get ripped off they are the people to buy from.
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: Dark Knight on January 08, 2008, 05:54:10 PM
I think you could buy from the shop without going via EBAY but I found the EBAY link !?

You could have looked for " Adult Original ProJump Sports Stilts Kangaroo Pro Jump"  :thumbs:
There are second hand ones about but unless you know what your doing ( better still have a look at them ) I would think twice about buying them ?
Stick with Pro-Jump Stores .... They'll not con you  :Dark_Knight:

You just have to let us know when you place your order:

It's a bit confusing though if you want M60s. The size chart has juniors up to 50kg and adults 80kg and up - no 60 or 70 listed.
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: webmaster on January 10, 2008, 01:02:36 AM
Thanks, I'll let the guys at the office know to update the ebay advert as we have the 60's and 70's in stock, they can already be brought from the website directly anyway and you can also pay by paypal so its probably best to go through the website...

But if you wanna go through ebay we do have the 60's & 70's in stock.

i used some of my friends powerisers and reli got into it so i bought my own from this site a few days ago. i did it with a postal order as im onli 15 so i dont have pay pal and i cost about £150 alltogether.

Pro-Jumps= £135
Postal Order= £9
Regestered Post= £4 (Lets you make a clain if they get lost in the post)

I havent got my own pair yet but ill let you know how it goes.  :angel:

I though about all the places first and i found that this site was the cheapest site.
The best 3 were here for £135
Ebay for £155
Amazon for £179 with 12 month woranty

Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: Sx Nutta on February 19, 2008, 04:30:40 PM
unless the seller is uk gooddeals, who are pro jump
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: Nero on February 19, 2008, 04:34:33 PM
yeah, but what im saying is pro jump will stand to make more of a profit if you use the store, therfore should supply lower prices to end consumer from the website, where as they have ebay and paypal charges using them
Title: Re: where to buy
Post by: Sx Nutta on February 19, 2008, 04:36:24 PM
