Schlumpf offers 4% rebate for bank transfer payments cleared within 10 days after purchase. The deal is probably only available to continental Europe though. Anyway, people who are interested should contact Jolanda office@schlumpf.ch. It’s a small company therefore it may take a few days before someone replies your inquiries. So be patient.
