    This should not have happened. A Daughter A Sister, A Friend. A Young life Lost.

    Think about what you are doing. Always consider the worst case scenario and clear the safety zone.

    Done, have resent the email requesting pricing on 1,2,3,4 and 5 units shipped to either Melb or Florida USA. They are $147 USD each for a single. I can see an immediate use when using extension ropes - wish I had this when I did that tyre on the way into Burgoynes on the side of a tree-less hill and finding an anchor that was within the strap limits was more difficult that you would think possible. Have sent a price request to X-Lock and ASR for comparison

    OK guys, finally got a reply from the US manufacturer, and the price is firm at $147 USD each up to a quantity of 20 units, then there is a 10% discount applied. The postage is ridiculous - $40US each, so 20 units would be $800USD - stuff that. I am sure my FEDEX mailbox in Florida will beat that hands down, generally half to a third of the USPS.

    Let me know interest - do your numbers guys as its USD. I am going to hold off until I get back to work to place the order. Happy to put it on my credit card and you simply direct deposit the amount when its all said and done.

    Put it into context - its a drop compared what you have spent so far, probably what all of us have spent on our hobby/passion. I am sure you could make one, but this one is actually load rated at 20,000lb, so must have undergone some testing. We don't know what it is made of either - looks like some sort of alum. alloy, but it could be a forging thats been tumbled and plated. I think I will go with the rated item. As i said previously, Its another trick I could have used in the past. Without this it took 3 hrs out of my weekend. I will order mine as soon as i get back to work, and let you know if anyone wants to jump on. Unfortunately the group discount is not that favourable.
