No problems with any other websites. Just Camskill.

It’s working for me too.

Bought rears for the Evora and a couple of tyres for my mums car just recently.

He has to get the missus to go pick stuff up from there now :(

On a more helpful note, "timed out" means it's likely a network block somewhere, so check your firewall rules on your router (or it's """oNLIne SAFetY""" settings ) to see if it's been accidentally disabled.

I've had a look in the settings and there's nothing set up, just the general firewall, and turning it off made no difference. Asus Zen CT8 FWIW.

Bizarre that Camskill is the only website I have this problem with. Oh well. It doesn't really affect me day to day.

I’ve never been on camskill before and when I did there was this banner at the bottom of my browser; maybe they do something different with cookies and it’s blocked on your devices or isp? Don’t think I’ve seen that banner before?

Really? I first used them around 2002, and have bought 90% of my tyres from them since then. :?

I’ve not used them to buy though have looked tyres up on there before to sense check prices. But you can only buy tyres, not arrange fitting, as far as I know. Much easier to use Blackcircles, eTyres or whatever.

I bought three sets from them a couple of months ago 😄

For a while I went elsewhere as I didn’t find their prices that great, but recently they’ve undercut all the other sites by a reasonable amount.

I also like their basic site layout. Yes it’s old and a bit ugly, but it’s very easy to just browse different sizes and widths where most other sites force you to plug in a specific size to view the range in that size.
