As above,so pay 65p + £5 postage or buy another brand of nippers?

Good god my snapped ages ago, do you really need them [emoji15]

I bet if you ring TT they'll stick one in an envelope and post it, only cost a stamp then. Remember to put 5 springs on your next order so you've got spares [emoji1]

I have never liked rubi snips/nippers. My set came out of b&q about 7 years ago and I have never had a problem with them.
Now I have said this they will probably break tomorrow :lol:

I always take the spring out, can't use them with it in!

I'm still amazed they have lasted this long. They where only a cheap replacement as my last pair broke while in the middle of a job.
