Shift Havoc Hybrid Pants - group buy from overseas - interested?

[Addict]

To pull out, first you have to enter, if something sounds to good to be true, well, ya'll know the rest
You can get the real thing right here in NZ for $179 http://motorcyclegear.co.nz/sale-shi...rid-pants.html...seems they are out of stock at the moment, but worth a contact.
These are mens pants also.

I did try them - they told me that they will not be getting any more in and that shift only do MX gear now.

Kinda pissed me off that they still advertise them.

Hey, please let me know the final price then I'll let you know to add me or not, as I have found this web site http://www.motorcyclecloseouts.com/h...ft_havoc+pants that does it for US $179.95 and they have the stock I think

Cheers,

That is a great pair of pants and unfortunately it has been discontinued and I can't find anything remotely close to it and be in the same price range!

Will do, I also tried them but they will not sell outside the states, so i thought to try the ship2u thing - turns out they wont even accept payment from outside the states!!!???

I would be keen for a pair as a more comfortable alternative to full leathers but have a few concerns about the supplier.

The price seems too cheap considering the RRP for these was $200 USD. Also the seller is located in Pakistan and doesn't take credit card or Paypal payments, only Western Union etc.
That site is known for selling cheap knock-offs and fakes and it doesnt even say anywhere on his add that they are Shift Havoc pants. He's just used a stock photo of them and copied the description.

Beware

Hi, adding up the numbers now, is that an in or out?

I found a pair of the Shift Havoc pants instore in my size today so tried them on. Ended up parting with hard earned, so, if these "replicas" are anywhere near the same quality as the Shift ones they are a good pant. That'll learn me for going in to look at boots

299 perchance?

299 perchance?

Yeah, not too bad for a pant listed over $500

yep

two weeks, but keep in mind the time of year - masses of mail being sent.

I bought a fairing kit from china at this time of year a couple of years ago with a four week lead time which ended up being about 6 weeks.

[Corse1]

Whatever the time frame I am still keen so hurry up all you question markers before you spend all your money over christmas

[giro]

Yeah, come on guys, it's still cheap. I need mine pronto!

[Addict]

To all of you who had a bad gut feeling................you were right.
