Their add suggests they are selling sizes Sml to XL which is OK for outer armour but not for the under armour will drop in and take a look today to confirm.

Why don't we just work how many want a Jacket and what size, and order them Bulk from the US.
I could even see if Stewart "OZinUS" Can help us out.
Say we order 10 + Freight and get them here cheaper

Just rang Head Office of Anaconda, and gave them a piece of my mind, so now their gunna find some in XL and get back to me.
So if you want one PM me .

The guys at Bayswater said they had none at the start of the sale and an XL wont go over my armor.
Waste of time to good to be true!

Mine is an XL and it fits me when I'm wearing both my winter internal armour and my jacket.
When I got mine I paid about $50 from Peter Stevens in Ringwood maybe 12 monts ago.
That $70 non sale price is too much.
I think Peter Stevens is the only FOX dealer in Australia.

After spitting it with Anaconda, they are chasing some XL's for me, so i will know tomorrow how many they can muster up.


Title: Re: fox rain jacket

They have the exclusive if they want it the importer is Monza who is related to the Stevens

Went to te web page, looks like the same one to me.

You need to go through a few pages to get to it.

http://www.anaconda.com.au/Specials.aspx (http://www.anaconda.com.au/Specials.aspx)

Anaconda must be getting them from outside Australia and are selling them as a pushbike accessory.

Spot on Tim and apparently they wont be selling them anymore after these are gone, so they say?

Here's the Scoop, i managed to get hold of 3 XL Jackets.
1 for me, 1 for Serge and 1 for Ron H if he wants it.
If Ron Doesn't want it, i now have 2.

Did they come from Anaconda?
 I was at their Bayswater store tonight and asked about them. They gave me the impression that they were like rocking horse poo, they never had them and were never going to see them.

Post by: Serge C on September 03, 2010, 01,47:01 PM

Apparently, they have come from QLD!

You can get a 6'x4' tarp at Bunnings for $3 and wear the jacket


Title: Re: rain jacket and bad marketing Anaconda
Post by: Brad on September 03, 2010, 10,29:18 PM
Usual ploy, get them in the store with tit bits of interest (some you never had with the usual sold out excuse)and then sell them something else which is hopefully more expensive.
Well done to Peter for calling their bluff and getting something out of this BS style marketing.
Anaconda have done this before (last time it was outdoor footwear), they suck and wont be getting any of my hard earn't cash in the near future.

Just an update on this Post:

Anaconda never got the Fox Jackets in.
They lie through Their Teeth.

NEVER NEVER buy from this Rip off Joint!!
