If you aren't going ti, you're wasting everyone's time.


This shit writes itself. Investors are being welcomed!
 
2 part quick one...

- what is the chain reaction cycles minimum spend for free delivery these days? I'm a little over $400 and they still want to change me for delivery. Perhaps it's a weight/size issue? Maybe they have ditched this because of costs? I haven't ordered bike parts for a while as would rather spend more money of stuff I can use than a small amount on delivery.


- does anyone have any discount codes for them? I unsubscribed to their constan spam a while ago, so am now disconnected from what they are offering.

Just dreams at the moment. A little basket experimenting has shown that it was probably a weight/size related issue. I'll I've this some contemplation.

If you have a large bulky item take a look to see if wiggle have it? they seem to have a more lenient shipping policy for some reason. maybe do two shipments - 1 from each store.

Good idea. Seems I haven't used wiggle in so long I have lost the password...and their ste is suspiciously not sending me a password reset option. I seem to be having some problems with technology.
 
Well I was following @slowmick 's advice and eventually got myself back into the wiggles account. It turns out I haven't purchased from them since early 2015! I was about to hit the button when chain reaction sent me a "$20 off for $200+" vouchers because I apparently hadn't purchased anything for a while...this meant even with the delivery fee I'd be $10 better off than with wiggle.

Of course the code didn't fucking work and I had to fuck around on their live chat. But they refunded me the $20 after I made the purchase. So who doesn't like a discount?

Thanks again for the suggestion there slow Mick. It did actually work! But I didn't use it in the end.

It's a shame our dollar is so low or I would use them more often.

True to an extent...but they have (like a lot of other retailers) really pulled in the purse strings on bargains. Still what I have purchased last night was closer to half the price than two thirds the price of the next best price I could find for it.

That depends on whether they use Evri or DHL. The latter usually takes 5-7 days, the former takes about 3 weeks. (If we're talking about CRC/Wiggle)

I haven't purchased from them for a while, but 5-7 working days has long been my delivery window with CRC regardless of who is giving it to me. The last few times I have used the usual local suspects it's lucky if the purchase has been dispatched by 5 days.




Props to cycling deal though. Those guys are pretty quick with dispatch. If only they had a decent range to offer.

It's only in the last few months that CRC/Wiggle started using Evri. It gets despatched quickly, but then it sits in the departures lounge for about 7-14 days before arriving somewhere in Australia and getting kicked about by Aus Post.
There's no rhyme or reason to it, but sometimes they use Evri and sometimes they use DHL.
 
I wonder if this is why they were offering a $9.99 express option? I took that as it was cheaper than the $14.99 I was otherwise subject too.
