5 Road bike inner tubes for £11.99 on Amazon, really happy with mine they are very good quality. No issues so far. I have a Vandorm pump which is also very very good. Defo worth a look at the £11.99 reduced price.
All sizes can be found on Amazon

Great price. I've never used them before but you can't grumble at that price

If only they weren't just £7.99 only last week :thinking:
Not a good deal. It's a (relatively) high price for a low quality product. The pics in that first review are pretty accurate as to what to expect.
Far better options out there.

Actually very good value, considering an inner tube retails at £5.99. Looking at the two one star reviews the other buyers are pumping the tube up outside of a tyre which acheives nothing. All tubes look like that when inflated outside a tyre, it has no technical means.

Neither good value, or true of all inner tubes. They were £7.99 last week, so how can this price be good value?
This is a no-name brand, and you can get well regarded own brands, or discounted name brands cheaper than this. Where is the value here?
Michelin £3.29 at Halfords and their own brand are 5 for £10

For anyone looking This is obviously self promotion. Member has only posted deals by that same Amazon Marketplace seller. These are really low quality tubes.

Hi,
The brand is Vandorm. What gives you the impression these are low quality? As I have explained I have purchased these and they are really good. Please check the continental inner tube listings and other brands that all have that same complaint from uneducated cyclists inflating the tube outside of the tyre.
All bicycle tubes are designed to work within the confines of the bicycle tyres, there is no practical purpose for inflating the tubes outside the tyre.
I have tried and tested all other brands, these are just as good.

Well, the latest two reviews on Amazon showing the pictures show why the impression is that they are low quality

Your obviously not too savy with regards to inner tubes. Please check any brand inner tube and they will all inflate into an unusual shape when not inflated within the confines of a tyre. Inflating them outside of a tyre has no technical purpose whatsover and is therefore meaningless. It is not a concern at all. Like I said I have been using them and they are perfect.

Perhaps vandorm also made this one. I've had some tyres from vandorm from the woolly hat shop on ebay and they have been pretty good to be honest and a great price. However there always seems to be inner tubes on offer from various places so I personally don't rate paying over £2 each for generic inner tubes.

Isn't this the same product for £2 less plus you can get a bit of topcashback and nectar points.
However agree about the quality concerns and poundland do good quality inner tubes of 20", 24" and 26" anyway so if your after those sizes they might be a better option.

It is, and like you say, same naff product. Basically this is the OP's business and they've posted the most expensive price they've ever sold them at on here as a deal ie. both their website and ebay store is currently £2 cheaper, and their Amazon store was £4 cheaper literally days before this deal was posted.
This "deal" is a joke, and we must be mugs because somehow it went hot :thinking:

You missed my point, you asked why people have the impression of low quality, and I told you a reason why
