The GLW has decided to get herself a nice new Brompton M6L. So, she specced it on the Brompton website and about the only dealer now in Norwich is Cycle Republic, i.e., posh Halfords. She e-mailed them about the arrangements and the manager e-mailed back stating that there is about a five week wait, no big deal there. However he also said they would require a 100% non-refundable deposit ; that's about £1,100. To us, that seems outrageous just on principle, especially that if there's an issue with the bike when we go to collect it, but also that's £1,100 worth of interest over five weeks that we are losing and Cycle Republic are gaining.
