Question ### Online Bike Shops ###

Hi

Has anyone here purchased parts from either of these 2 online stores:

1. pricepoint.com

2. jensonusa.com

If so, did everything go ok?

Did you order from the US, or intl.?

Thanks.

Hi Merlin

A mate of mine down here ordered via PricePoint

No problems except for him being confused as to which courier they were using and mumbling because of how long the stuff was taking - when it was already here!!

I think they limit you to an order of around $1k

cheers

I've used jensonusa (to Australia) and everything was great as far as the ordering process goes, however I won't be getting anything from there again as they only use FedEx to deliver internationally and my experience with Fedex was extremely poor i.e. to the point that i will never get anything delivered/sent by them if i can possibly avoid it.

To be more precise (and fair) it was Fedex in Australia where the bottlenecks occur(ed).

Have ordered from Pricepoint many times. They have great web deals; e.g. Mythos Kevlar foldable tires (MB) $9.99 each (locally these sell for ~$35.00).
