Nevisport Going Under?

The Nevisport in Edinburgh seems to be closing down; there's massive sale on all stock with at least 20% off. What's weird is that everything is reduced, usually when shops close down any stock which can be moved to other stores isn't reduced. Everything from OS maps to GPS seems to be on sale. It'd be a shame to see another outdoor shop have difficulties (I seem to remember Blacks closing a lot of stores last year) but since they moved along to the East End of Rose Street I've not been that impressed by their stock. The truth is that for a good range of things (even just small stuff) you need a lot of space and Tiso or online shops are going to win every time. That said I got my skis from them earlier in the year and they were the cheapest on and offline, the service was pretty ace as well.

It's not all bad news though because I picked up a cheap harness. Hopefully we'll be heading out to Ratho one day this week and I can try it out then. From trying it on it's a lot more padded and comfy that the ones you can rent out there.
