New Dartboard
Anyone know where to get a cheap Blade 4 or Eclipse Pro
I tried Amazon but if you inc. shipping to Ireland and then change the currency from sterling to euro it's a bit much.

Without checking, argos is usually good for these boards.

I actually checked there as well and off the top of my head it was around 37-40 euro.
Probably my best bet so far

Re: New Dartboard
Argos Uk = £21
Argos Ireland = €39
I know the currency rate but it's not that much

Re: New Dartboard
It doesn't actually have to be Eclipse or Blade , just any relatively cheap one.
I saw one on a180 for £16

Sod the cost and get a decent board that'll last you twice as long as the ones you're looking at. Get a Bull's pal, seriously its the dogs bollocks.

I've seen the pics of your current board mate and a piece of cardboard would be better.
I haven't come across a keener new player, so I suggest something which will last and all reviews point to the Bulls, pal.

Re: New Dartboard
Bought an eclipse pro a few months back and the bloody thing is falling apart already.
One year I got a bike for my birthday. So I went peddling off down the road and knocked an old lady down.
'Can't you ring your bell?' She said. 'I can ring my bell,' I said 'But I can't ride my bike'

Bull's Micko, bull's man. The eclipse looks grand on first viewing but doesn't last the pace.

Re: New Dartboard
Thats seems a good price, rotate it on a regular basis and it should last you 12 months.Pieman wrote:Thanks mateD & B wrote:Pieman wrote:Anyone know where to get a cheap Blade 4 or Eclipse Pro

Don't think I've ever seen one in the couple of sports shops that sell boards around here, not a great choice at all to be honest.gazman wrote:Bull's Micko, bull's man. The eclipse looks grand on first viewing but doesn't last the pace.

Re: New Dartboard
I've had my bulls going on 2 years and the bugger looks like new. Had an eclipse prior and it lasted around 6-8 months before I gave up on rotating it.

Re: New Dartboard
Not the greatest of pictures but you can see the wear and tear on it after only a few months.
