Buying leathers from Italy?
Hello all. I'm looking to buy a leather jacket now that (fingers crossed) drier weather is on its way. I like the look of Dainese's short ones. Trouble is they're really expensive.
A bit of searching unearthed this site in Italy which sells them for much less (same number of Euros as Pounds if you catch my drift). Delivery costs are low, so it seems like a pretty good deal: WheelUp I figure I've just got to get the size spot on, which means finding somewhere nearby that has them in stock and trying them on. I'm going to feel like a right tease trying these things on and not buying them, but I have to get these euro sizes licked. Has anyone ever bought leathers from overseas before? Hopefully putting it on credit card I'll be protected. |

Another way?
Get a cheapie flight by Ryanair to Forli / Bologna - if you plan it right it can only be as little as 99p and go to the Ducati shop. This time of year, they should still have some bargains on and you get to do a factory tour and also to look at the Ducati museum - fabbo day trip. Not done it yet but I know Albie and Gary T did it last year with the DSC. I believe they are talking about another one in the next month or so so I'm pretty sure I'll be tagging along on that one.
Go on, you know it makes sense simon |
