Buying gear off the net?

[BUNGY]

Been looking for some new gear and have found this site www.motorcyclegear.co.nz. Got a real nice shift jacket on there for way cheaper than the local bike shop.

So im here asking if anyone has ever used the site or knows anyone who has.

[P38]

Looks like a nice site.

Didn't know they exsisted.

Cheers for sharing.

I have found the internet traders to be very good and have not been dissapointed yet.

Most (all really) gave better service than the local shops around here.

It's alway a nervous time waiting for your goods when you order from a new site, but someone has to be first.

i haven't used the site nor know anyone that has,
but there looks like some good prices on there.

might have to have better look around/hope i don't spend to much.

I bought my Alpinestars jacket from them. Really good, quick, packaged well. No complaints

i bought almost a full new set of gear from ebay (US)

cost me about $1200

would've cost me well over $2k here


easy decision

Ebay is your friend I just got a full new exhaust system for my cruiser for $500 NZ landed at my doorstep probably saved myself $1000

yep...crazy cheap compared to local prices

very difficult for local distributors to compete with the relatively small size of our market

Looks like a good site alrite, like the look of the spool gloves for a realistic price.

Yea I like the deal im just a little weary of buying off a site I dont know. Trade me and Ebay are fine because but this is a random site I've never heard about. Thought I would be on the safe side and see if anyone has used them before. Looks like Im off to go buy a new jacket.

I bought a Shift Airbourne jacket off them late last year. They seemed really good to deal with and I think free shipping for purchases over $150.

some nice gear on there

I buy almost all my parts and accesories from: http://www.shopbombaymotorsports.com/

It's in Lost Angeles USA and I generally save at least 30-50%, including shipping than any store here. Just bought a pinlock visor and clear insert for my Shoei helmet. It was $84 US, including shipping. That's about $105 NZ. The visor alone here is $90. Usually takes about 3-5 days to ship over.
Pranav, the owner has been a friend for many years and always has the best prices I have ever found. He'll often throw in free goods, e.g., I needed a few screws for the fairing on my Bandit and he threw 3 of them in at no charge.
If he doesn't have it, he can usually get whatever you need. Highly recommended!

I've noticed a lot of cheap bike gear on Trademe, should I be weary of these? I'm not an expert but how can you tell if it's just a cheap chinese knock off or something? Like this for example http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-159153681.htm
