Ox_Wagon Posted October 16, 2008 Share On a more serious note: I dropped in at some of the LBS in my area and it looks like the price increases (price fixing?) are starting to kick in. Some stuff I was interested in has increased by 30-40%. I guess I will not be buying any of those anymore.<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now who imports maxxi's?KonaFan2008-10-16 06:29:55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtrider Posted October 16, 2008 Share It is a good think the dollar exchange rate had nothing to do with it Ox The item I wanted to order from Chain has gone up by more than that ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bateleur1 Posted October 16, 2008 Share puzzler' date=' listening to this I want to puke on your Mavic wheels![/quote'] First someone needs to force Mavic to give YOU a set and only then just before you ride them you should puke on them . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widget Posted October 16, 2008 Share I am wondering on what grounds they could confiscate the wheels.?If they are imported legally (even if they are grey) and all taxes / Vat requirements etc are paid, they are the property of CWC, nobody can confiscate them. If they are counterfeit Mavic products, then thats another thing all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip,the stuff came in before all hell broke loss so we can expect another 20-50% on top of that when the new shipments come in.Ox_Wagon2008-10-16 06:36:49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thug Posted October 16, 2008 Share I think someone needs to list down all the "official" products that Dragon imports and then we can start a boycott !! your Giant for starters. We'll sort that out with a bit of sandpaper and a visit to Cycle-Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeK Posted October 16, 2008 Share Goeie een Willehond. Puzzler, ek hoop jy het goeie navorsing gedoen aangaande jou stelling, indien dit sou voorkom as onwaar kan CWC skade van jou eis asook 'n crimen iniuria saak teen jou aanhangig maak. Hoop nie vir jou part dit gebeur nie, maar ek hoop ook nie dit is waar nie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my family fought for years against the mainstream acceptance of this evil Mavic empire! (Boutique wheels are evil!) I deserve the right to puke on them whenever I want to....

masood Posted October 16, 2008 Share Chris Willemses' store has been raided and all grey import Mavic Wheelsets from which the serial numbers have been removed were confiscated. This was done to protect the public from buying Mavic wheelsets which are brought into the country in an illict manner. Riding with wheels like these will not only void the warranty but may expose the cyclist to a wide range of liability issues. Mavic takes quality and service very seriously and will do anything in their power to protect the public from pirated products. Boy am i glad i got mine from a reputable dealer - they have changed my cycling experience This is ***, wheels cannot be confiscated unless stolen or counterfeit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWC Online Posted October 16, 2008 Share Hallo Puzler [ seker my ou opposisie en ek sien 1ste post ]. Aan al my ondersteuners. Hier is die waarheid. Ja ek het n besoek gehad vanaf die SAPS en n prokureur en ja hulle het 10 stelle wiele geneem vir bewaring. Die rede is omdat daar nie serail nommers op die wiele is nie. Ek neem aan julle sal verstaan dat ek nie verder hierop kan uitbrei nie, maar sal julle op hoogte hou!!TAKE NOTE. Only wheels without the serail number has been taken away. We have many other wheels in our shop with serail numbers on it. Now the good news for all the cyclists and my supporters out there. You guys have never seen a prices like the ones you are going to see soon. I will also make sure that you will get the best prices on wheels as well as on other stuff that we import direct. Watch our specials next week. Hier kom GROOT Chrismas specials!!!Remember that we do garuntee all the stock that we sell. Thanks for your support!
