stewie911 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Did an order Saterday night and to my suprise, customs phoned me this morning telling me my package is in RSA. Plus point for Evans cycles: Unlike CRC, you can order Mavic products. Unfortunatly not Specialized.(Or luckily for my budget ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaco-fiets Posted January 18, 2011 Share Im keen to give evans cycles a try. Been checking out the cannondale super six hi mod full sram red going for........ wait for it........ just R32 000! Sure its tax free but it still is way cheeper than here. You can always asked them to send as bike parts then you skip all that duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceMTB Posted January 18, 2011 Share How does it work with bring in bikes from overseas. I see they are cheeper there. Do you pay VAT when it arives in SA and are there any other hiden costs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted January 18, 2011 Share How does it work with bring in bikes from overseas. I see they are cheeper there. Do you pay VAT when it arives in SA and are there any other hiden costs?

Just type CRC in the search window and happy reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOBIKES ONLINE STORE Posted January 18, 2011 Share How does it work with bring in bikes from overseas. I see they are cheeper there. Do you pay VAT when it arives in SA and are there any other hiden costs? Hi Bruce Quick answer on bikes - add 32.7% of value (15% duty of value plus 15.4% VAT on the new amount). So the Cannondale of R32 000 will b a total of +/- R42 450 with hopefully free shipping on that amount! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaco-fiets Posted January 18, 2011 Share Still probably R15000 cheaper than here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinton - theCOW Posted January 19, 2011 Share :thumbup: To Evans! Year ago i ordered S-Work shoes, arrived at my cousin in the UK quick as well, can't remember exact days to save on the customs duties. Ordered a seatpost for a m8 on Sat as well after Wiggle didn't have stock. Evans did a price match, processed order on Sat and it arrived either Tues or Wed at my cousin. They def on my list of guys to buy from! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewie911 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Wiggle order was done Sunday afternoon and Evans Saterday night, both packages got delivered to our office on Friday morning. Beat that CRC. Wiggle even emailed me my tracking number and they let me know when my package arrived in RSA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT1 Posted January 22, 2011 Share I found the Evans staff a bit thick though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanCr Posted September 6, 2011 Share Recently attempted to purchase 2 Brake disk Rotors as a testing the waters with Evans. The stock did not arrive, everything seemed like it was good when I first contacted the supprt team and they quickly claimed to have dispatched another replacement order to me. I queried if it was possible to pay for a more reliable method of delivery but was assured that it woud arrive soon. Unfortunately the so called second package did not arrive either. Subsequent attempts to communicate with Evan's Cycles seams to have fallen on Def ears, easpecially when I try and get any shipping information out of them. As such I will not be buying anything from them ever again as they just do not seem to be interested, which is sad considering the professionalism of some of the Other Online retailers. At the moment I am out of pocket with no stock for an oreder place around 2 months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
