Gymandfitness.com.au is new to OzBargain so I thought we'd start off with a quick coupon code - 10% all gym equipment, strength equipment, MMA gear, cardio and supplements (EVERYTHING! except Concept Rowers) with a minimum spend of $50!
Enjoy!
Referee gets $50 off, Referer gets 500 coins.
Seems rep is not here, but I would guess that the difference is in firmness.
I'd actually recommend going with something with a plastic inner like this which was posted earlier, but no longer at a the bargain price, or the 'travel roller' which you can get from Iron Edge.
I find that all foam is good for the stiffer parts of your body like your calves, but ultimately when you're doing your hips, quads, and upper back you want something harder (and more painful).
Hi spacenoodle
This foam rollers are nice and firm!
Hi robxxx!
Sorry for the slight delay, they are both the same size - the only difference being that the commercial grade is designed for studios, gyms, etc. to last from constant use whilst the standard foam roller is ideal for home use.
Hope this helps!
Send me an email if you have problems with freight costs and I will see what I can do for you if you are ordering multiple items steven(@)gymandfitness.com.au
the shipping pretty much kills the deal. i won't call it "Great Shipping Rates Australia".
i was looking for Rubber Hex Dumbbells - 10kg (sold in pairs), only willing to pay for $50. Am i being realistic guys?
Hi sol3x & carpo31
It all depends on where you are located and it depends on how nice the freight company is being to us :)
Any issues, send me an email to steven(@)gymandfitness.com.au - if you are ordering multiple items I may just be able to work something out to absorb the expensive freight cost if you are in rural areas.
Yeah shipping is a killer otherwise i would of got some things too
I bought my Gym set off these guys (power rack, 150kg weight set, olympic barbell, bench, olympic ezcurl bar, dumbells, 2x2 flooring and a dipping belt) for $1200ish delivered. I had to get it priced matched with a friend's invoice who purchased earlier.
They did have issues getting my order right (whoever did the invoicing nub'd it up a few times) and it takes a day for them to reply to your emails so that was a -ve. They also sent some abswing item instead of my dipping belt which also was quite frustrating because I hate having to send stuff back.
All in all, price is ok. Not sure if you can use this code on top of a price match though. Hopefully they've improved their service. I was dealing with a Mark.. Most likely won't order from these guys again though…
hope this helps
The prices seem good, there's also gym direct who will give you a 10% discount if you are a member of ausbb.com (bodybuilding forum).
I actually looked at the these guys when I got my power rack but ended up going with the MMPR from gym direct.
Hi spacenoodle
We also do custom quotes all the time so if you are buying more than one item, it is best to email info(@)gymandfitness.com.au and we'll work out a package price.
Keep an eye on ausbb.com for GymandFitness.com.au, I've been chatting with them this last week, got a few things in the pipeline!
Hi derkyft
Sorry to hear about your hassles!
Sometimes issues to arise but we do our best to fix it asap! We also don't expect you to pay for return freight if it was our stuff up - you don't even need to drop it off, we organise couriers to pick it up to make it less of a hassle.
As for the emails, we have hired more staff as business is going crazy, our average response time is under 18 hours (except for CRAZY periods like Christmas/NY).
We've streamlined a lot of things. Feel free to email me personally and I will make sure you get looked after in future derkyft - steven(@)gymandfitness.com.au
Thanks Steven, I'll give you guys another shot when I need more gym gear. Cheers
I got really excited for a second until I realized you've explicitly excluded the C2 machines, is there a reason? Currently saving for the Model E.
Unfortunately Concept don't let retailers discount their rowers. Please send an email to steven(@)gymandfitness.com.au and I will help you out ;)
Feel free to email me spacenoodle, I have some good news for you.
I ordered from them recently, 20kg dumbbell set. Ordered Monday and arrived by Friday the same week from Brisbane. I thought the shipping was reasonable for 20kg and was even better once the $10 off coupon was applied (from signing up to the newsletter).
Customer service for purchases online was quick. I got a call within a few hours of placing my order to advise the product I had ordered was out of stock but they would be happy to give me the more expensive set for the same price which I was happy with of course. The customer service representative advised when it would arrive etc. No problems with my order.
Glad to hear you are happy with your purchase and kudos to the freight company for helping to make it a speedy delivery :)
Your prices are very good, but the shipping even on light items kills it for me.
If I lived nearby I would be grabbing a couple of things for sure.
I have a question, can you tell me the difference between the standard foam roller and the commercial one?
