    any advice on haggling their price down from 350 to 300 on a power rack? im buying an oly set which is 160 too and dropping the 50 is the only way i can afford this set.

    I was told it can be done.

    If you buy the oly set from them they should do you a better discount for having bought multiple items.

    If however, you're getting the oly set elsewhere (I'd be interested to know which set, where and for how much!), just try to haggle politely with a slightly lower price than what you actually want and then try to settle at around £300 (may be slightly more mind you).

    I think they need to be convinced you are actually willing to buy the item straightaway if the price is right. Good luck!

    btw. am I correct in assuming it's the F430 you're after now?! -good choice, if so.

    You can blag them and it would probably be in your favour to go there in person and do it. Also, you get to look around their showroom which is an eerie experience, full of gym porn. I went there last year.

    The warehouse is up in Scotland though, right?

    I'm gonna get the CF475 soon with the lat pulley. I really regret going for the CF375.

    They've got about 10 showrooms, not sure where there warehouse is.

    If you have the 375 and don't like it, do yourself a favour and skip the 475. There's a common theme with Bodymax products, they tend to suck.

    Either of these is a huge jump up from Bodymax;

    The F430 can be had for around 300 or less if you haggle. Only about 50 more than the 475 and it's substantially better.

    That's the one I went to, there is some scary looking equipment in there.

    Sounds alright to me, and generally you get what you pay for with exercise equipment. Check it's in stock though before you order.

    Excellent Company bought a lot of stuff from them this year and its always been positive. Plus they have excellent after sales service , Highly recommend powerhouse fitness good products prices and low delivery rates.
