Just back from a great week camping but have managed to lose one of the air-bed stoppers.  It is a regatta airbed from Argos (their website Q&A states they do not stock the spare stoppers!).  It is a stopper that screws on, it has a dual inlet so you can open the first bit and use the pump to inflate the airbed or you can open the whole cap and it deflates quickly.  Does that make sense? 

Anyway - does anyone know where i can get a spare one?  I have looked on ebay and on online websites but they just list the old bung type stoppers.

Your help would be much appreciated!

Thanks, Carolyn

Have you tried contacting Regatta direct - you can't be the first person to have lost one and won't be the last!

Hi everyone - yes the Gelert repair kit with valve kit is perfect (& cheap!)  I will order two to ensure i don't have to search next time!  (The daft thing about the airbed is that the stopper is not attached to the main airbed!)  As Helen63 said, i can't be the first and won't be the last to lose a stopper!

Thanks to everyone, this site is so helpful, i have learnt so much just reading various posts and now have had such helpful feedback, thank you!

Carolyn

Glad you've got sorted. Think I'll book mark the site Steven mentioned, it's always my fear that we'll lose a stopper!

Could you not get one direct from Gelert, or one of their local stockists listed?
