Just Keep Pedaling Posted November 1, 2011 Share Placed an order last Monday night. +-R3500. Nothing happens all week. On Thursday I contact them and say - "hey, whats up?" They say, there is nothing wrong with your order - we are having a problem on our side. Friday they email and say "two items you ordered are not in stock" (they are showing in stock on the website). (Shimano shoes and Shimano Shifter) I pick two replacement items in stock and send an email. On Monday I get an email saying the ORGINAL item I ordered is not in stock (duh) can I choose a replacement. I point out that I already asked for a replacement item. Today the email me - the replacement item is also out of stock (its still showing in stock on their website). Retrenchments? Systems issues? Lack of credit worthiniess to stock up? Anybody else seeing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Keep Pedaling Posted November 1, 2011 Share Previous time I ordered a few months back - I clicked the place order button and literally 15 minutes later I got a message - "you order has been dispatched."

Caerus Posted November 1, 2011 Share Even better, try Bike24. As cheap as CRC and they have stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant Posted November 1, 2011 Share Had a similar issue, where I ordered an item that was in stock then all of a sudden it was not.Big issue is, order was placed 2 days before the rand saw its Ars3 so ended up costing me an extra R 480.00Seriously anoyed, there response a 5 pound voucher. not good enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Java001 Posted November 1, 2011 Share They are closing down.... Yes, heard about this.The UK operation is closing to move offshore to merge with CWC in Cape Town. This solves all hubber problems and worship posts can now be combined. , whilst those that complain on the hub can now be jointly flamed To those that insist that you dare not complain or email BEFORE you have at least phoned, a nightmare awaits ! It's no longer going to be only "did you phone Chris Snr and Chris Jnr", but have you phoned Ian, Frank, Peter, Roger, William, Butch, Gerald and another 50 sales staff at CCWRC Chris Chain Willemse Reaction Cycles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
