Hmmm, Wiggle dropped Assos, or Assos dropped Wiggle…

[DaveP]

Just looked on Wiggle today for a little bit of xmas shopping, and lo and behold, they don’t do Assos anymore, wonder why that is…

 

[yello]

We could conjecture all day long... and still be wrong!

As I understand it, Assos gained contol of Wiggle's Mainframe computer and attempted to trigger a nuclear war. Luckily Wiggle had been developing some serious Robotech, and sent in it's newest Special Forces Mecha Squad, which partially destroyed the Assos underground base, crippling it's Sentient Machine. I don't think we've heard the last of Assos though, they're a devious and crafty bunch.

I heard they's accidentally left a packet of jelly babies down the assos woman's bibtights, making it look like she was a bloke in lycra-drag

 

[yello]

I've heard of peanut smuggling but never jelly babies...

Maybe people who shop on Wiggle just recognise the value for money of their own dhb brand and don't buy Assos?

Was thinking just the very same thing.....

Was the Large Hadron Collider working the weekend by any chance...

Yeah, I'm too tight to buy Assos stuff as well. And I never get jelly beans from Wiggle either.

I've never received any goodies from them either... however, rather bizarrely, when I got my Marathon Winter tyres for the Hybrid recently (from a German site) I got a small packet of Honey Shreddies cereal. Go figure!!

Don't you think Assos kit seems really overpriced?

 

[Globalti]

Would people buy Assos kit if it was dirt cheap?

 

[Hover Fly]

WHen I got my Rohloff from Roseversand in Germany there was a bar of Milka in with it. Perhaps they think there is still food rationing over here.

 

[mr Mag00]

its offical wiggle are dropped as my preferred supplier. appaling customer care. i know my moving away wont force them to change but its just not good enough to blame the postal system or weather when one piece arrives and others dont.



so sorry wiggle 'youre fired!'

 

[zizou]

might be related to their 20% off sale at the moment, and the stuff will reappear tomorrow

Deffo.

If items came with "jelly assos ladies" instead of jelly babies
