Ventura cp 50 (argos)

[BrumJim]

£735 now. I've never watched a bike price before, but this has to break records for price yo-yo-ing.
Is there a dispute between Head of Toys Pricing and Head of Exercise Equipment Pricing?

I love the way the Argos site makes a big thing of the massive £14 saving on the rrp, surely going to attract a lot of buyers........
