RunScribe Plus and STRYD have been in short supply recently. so much so that you have possibly not been able to get hold of one. Fear not, salvation is close to hand (foot).
If you want to get a pair of RunScribe pods now you can buy direct from RunScribe in the USA using the image links below or from NewRunningGear in the UK.
USA: 10% off Runscribe – Discount automatically applied which you see automatically added in the checkout UK/EU distributor newrunningear.com: use 10% code SCtfk10 on checkout
STRYD Discounts, Availability and current pricing
STRYD is only available directly from STRYD in the USA. There will be import duties for you to import into the EU.
I partner directly with STRYD in the USA and their distributor New Running Gear in the EU. The images below take you through to whatever current deal on STRYD there is at any given time in the USA/Canada. Thank you!

>STRYD is only available directly from STRYD in the USA. There will be import duties for you to import into the EU
Well on their site it is stated: Free US shipping. No EU VAT tax. Worldwide shipping.
I have asked them via chat and got confirmation that shipping happens from their UK distributor, therefore no import TAX will be in place. As a result it is cheaper to buy from STRYD website, as $219 equals ~ 180 EUR, but buying STRYD in Europe you have to pay more than 200 EUR.
i’m pretty sure you will pay import tax AND an admin fee when you import into UK and into EU. You may well also have to collect from somewhere inconvenient…in my other job I import stuff quite a lot. not electronics admittedly. you also have to factor in the actual excahnge rate you will pay and not a mid price.
importing into the UK generally incurs no cost, from memory, **if** the value is less than about £20.
plus how do you return to the USA if something goes wrong
also with Alchemy/NewRunningGear you get a 10% discount in UK/EU. Alchemy/NewRunningGear have been out of stock recently.
even if it was cheaper by a few euros/pounds , it’s prob not worth hassle.
imo
Chaugi is right. Their EU shipments are carried out by their UK distribution centre. I ordered one about two months ago from the Czech Republic and paid no extra tax or vat.
yes, i checked too. I assumed they offered shipping from USA directly.
Any rumors on a Stryd 3.0 footpod coming within the next couple of months. The Stryd 2 is getting old in Breaking techonology terms, and competitiors are getting closer.
If not then maybe just rumors of a summer discount coming for people looking to buy.
2x no , unfortunately 🙁
if newrunninggear have them back in stock in the EU then there are discounts to be had there.
hey, any thoughts on where runscribe is available in the eu? apparently newrunninggear doesn’t sell it anymore…
thanks,
tudor
ha!
yes there is a story there I might tell one day.
let me put you in contact with them directly (offline). They will ship direct
