OK it's like this.....im surrounded by a plethora of LBS! I've bought various things from various shops and have noticed they all have one thing in common...a flippin stiff upper lip! Maybe they r just so used to takin my money that they know they dont have to try with me anymore? At least try and sell the product...etc.
No names mentioned but my mate bought an Orange MTB after having fallen for mine....Things went well, they were only too happy to take his money.....then poor chap had a malfunction with this rear der...like the next day....they treated him like an Iraqi or something....bad news u say? but wait there is more....Seems i've been askin about and this is common practise among the larger shops. Treat em mean keep em keen seems to b the flavour of the day!
However all is not lost...for we still have these lil LBS poppin up all over the place....not only r these people really nice to u....they give u a better deal, especially when it comes to labour and treat ur bike with respect. I reckon we should stand up and support the smaller shops. A big BOO to the big fish!
