Blade 5 Bargain

Post by Rout »

Apparently if you go into Argos and order one of their Blade 4's for £19.99 you actually get a Blade 5 as they ran out of 4s ages ago.

Blade 5s should be about 40-45.

(Sadly, I have heard that all the numbers are in the right places on these boards. So if you aspire to be like the guys you are seeing on the TV at the moment you might have to start swapping the numbers round yourself. Still a decent price though.)

Haha that would imply I can slightly aim, 10 years ago I would have loved it.

They are just the standard Blade 5 though aren't they, the Dual core is around the £40.00 mark.

As you can see my darts room setup is normally exclusively Unicorn, but as my HD board is goosed, took advantage of the Argos offer and got a Blade 5 for 20 quid, and am picking up a 2nd one as my back up boats tomorrow.

Just a quick question. Are those cracks in the board normal?
