Why buy Kite Equipment in Cape Town?

It is generally cheaper to buy your new equipment here in Cape Town and take it back overseas with you.

Keep in mind that you can also claim back the tax you pay here as a tourist. If you want to save even more money, and you don’t mind showing off last year’s kiteboard model, you can cash in on the special deals and discounted prices on the previous season’s equipment offered by most local kite shops.

Should you arrive in Cape Town with your kite gear and find better deals at the local kite shops, you can advertise your kite equipment on www.gumtree.co.za where you’re sure to find a buyer in a short space of time.
