I may need some help from a member living in the Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland.
I have broken the wheel on my pipe cutter. Spare wheels are showing as no longer available.
This company seems to have some but they will not post to England. https://shop4fasteners.co.uk/irwin-r...r-200-30c.html

It is not the whole thing just the wheel which can be seen here https://www.eganreid.co.uk/spare-wheel-for-200-30c--2

If postage costs are not silly would any member be willing to accept the wheel and then post to England? I am assuming this does not break any laws.

thank you

Both internet addresses given are in England.

Both quote delivery charges for mainland UK as well.

When I went to pay and fill in the address it would not allow me to change country to England. I emailed the company and they have told me they will only post to the Republic or Northern Ireland.

This is their reply
"Thank you for your email. Unfortunately we only ship within the Republic of Ireland"

The second link was to show the exact item I want, it is from a different company that cannot supply the item.

The first link is from a company that has the item but the picture is wrong

Check the handle "A spare cutter wheel is located in the handle." taken from a website.

Ian, go to Car Boot sales and pick up the complete thing for a couple of quid.

I have just cheeked my cutter, Atlan, are a genius, no i did not read that. There is indeed a new cutting wheel in the handle. I have owned my cutter for 20 years or more and never knew that.:duh::duh: Mate you have made me so happy, thank you. :D:D I always thought what was in the top of the handle was for holding the handle in place.

I seem to be quite attached to this cutter. Yet again a member of this forum has helped with a problem, the help is second to none. what a group of people, brillient.

thanks again Atlan :D:D

I want to fix this cutter. I have another cutter the same style but it is different, will still do the same job.

Hi Ian,

As Shop4Fasteners is based in Sheffield your experience is very strange. I have just entered my billing address in England and it quoted me standard delivery of £5.95. :shrug:

I suspect that there's an incompatibility between their website and whatever computer/phone you were using to place the order. Can you not place the order over the phone? You can then replace the spare in the handle for next time.
