Caerus Posted September 4, 2010 Share How did u come across this, anyone used it yet? I doubt that your LBS will come anywhere close to beating CWC at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted September 4, 2010 Share good question Crack: its very recent, makes me wonder if Colnago is one of those that run the site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted September 4, 2010 Share good question Crack: its very recent, makes me wonder if Colnago is one of those that run the site Would be great if the LBS did get their acts together and become more competitive with their prices. You do wonder who is behind this and what they are making out of it? I go to the people giving the best prices and service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricorn Posted September 4, 2010 Share well, the western cape LBS' are pretty competitive compared to the benchmark: CRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggsovereasywithteandtoast Posted September 4, 2010 Share We figured you’d rather have a bicycle supplier chasing you than having to waste your time phoning people who didn’t answer their phones, or played lousy hold music only to tell you that they didn’t have what you’re looking for in stock. I honestly think that I have NEVER phoned a bike shop.I use any excuse to be inside a bike shop. It makes me feel good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colnago Posted September 5, 2010 Share good question Crack: its very recent, makes me wonder if Colnago is one of those that run the site i wish i was cause i think its a great idea, but im to busy with my real job and dont have time to phone bike shops... obviuosly seems that someone has though... good luck to them and i came across it by searching google..was looking at bikes for sale in SA and it popped up under google adds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerhardc Posted September 5, 2010 Share Their role makes me think of mortgage originators/aggregators in the house market space.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted September 5, 2010 Share Why dont they just start off with decent prices to begin with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted September 5, 2010 Share So its a community of bikestores working together to regulate the prices they sell bikes at.if it really was independant then they would put their name to it. If the quotes come back and they're competetive, then that's great.If they come back steep then we're back to price fixing mr maclean. But the worst case is them starting off cheap and slowly but surely inflating then we have a controlled market. I'm not convinced we need another middleman in the market. We all know what a good price for bikes are. I'll watch this with interest, but have my reservations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
