Lime?

**RichClark** · 3rd January 2006, 19:26

I know the 'where to buy lime' thread has been done to to death, and I've found plenty of good leads going through the archives.

I'll probably end up ordering through Divex, but before I do, I just thought I'd check and see if anyone had recently bought a pallet and had some spare 4-8 grade kegs that they'd like to off-load.

Cheers

PS around the London / Slough / Hertford area would be great

Hi Rich,

Well as it so happens I bought a pallet of Sofnolime 797 from AP at the beginning of December. If it's any use to you as of today I only have 2 tubs left sat in my front room.
If you're interested I'm selling them at £57 a tub.

With the amount of interest I've had from people in the area (Stoney Cove) I may well end up ordering another pallet in the next few weeks.
(Oh god another lime mountain in my front room!

)

At the moment I'm keeping my hours up on my unit at Stoney or on occasions I do make the odd trip to Dotty or the NDC, so if you wanted to collect from those locations that would be fine with me.

Let me know if you're interested.

Neil

Anyone stuck for lime or gas in the Lincolnshire area I still have some 797 left @ £60 , I have a Haskell so you good o2 and Trimix fill all at short notice. Thats if I'm not diving.

Divex were very helpful and do a good service but the one criticism I had was the courier company they use to deliver it. They were crap. Twice I was given a delivery date, twice I arranged for someone to be in, twice they didn't turn up, twice they left a card the next day when there was no-one there, twice I arranged to pick it up from the depot and twice they had sent it back to Divex before I got there.

I ended up driving to Diver's warehouse instead. They even carried the keg to my car for me

I can't believe the bloody system blanked out w.h.o.r.e.house... everyone knows that's their official title and "warehouse" is just an ironic nickname

Thanks for the advice, I'll have it shipped to work, as long as it arrives during office hours, I *should* be ok.

Cheers

Hi Brent,

That'll be me

(John's mate)

As Brent has pointed out, I'm not making any money out of this, I'm purely covering my costs hence the reason I can't/won't ship it to anyone. But it can be collected from me on my dive travels around the UK or my house in Northants.

I'm only doing it so I can get the cheaper bulk price for my own lime and give some of the same benefit to other people. Coz I'm nice like that

Just ask John....

Cheers

Neil
