Don't know if you know but Costco are selling 12 packs of bikes for only £12 (plus VAT)

Thought some people may be interested.

There are some old postings about the cost of Bikes and Costco are mentioned several times. Don't you have to pay a fee to become a member or something before being able to buy stuff? Just wondering!

The other thing to be aware of is that sometimes the cheaper stores get a hold of Bike rejects. Which (so I have been told) are of a much inferior quality.

Has anyone actually bought a set - and can confirm they are ok?

You have to be a costco member and to be one you need your own business or be added to somebody elses account and they can only add 2 people :(
Sorry that wasn't the question but it's worth knowing.

You don'thave to have a business, to be a Costco member. You can get individual membership. Need totake two proofs of identity.

As for business memebership you can have upto 7 additional members.

Just for clarification.....

Also I have also bought this brick of cards from them and they are indeed of the same quality as those I have bought any where else.

lol
Sorry about the wrong info, in that case I will have to kill my m8 for telling porkies to me all those years, lol.

On the positive side he can't argue with getting me a brick now, hmmm maybe just a light killing.

You can buy bricks from various online magic dealers. I recently went to costco but couldnt find the bricks *oh well*
