    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Has anyone ordered from bike bandit ? If parts are listed on the price sheets does that mean its in stock?Just thought i'de ask around before ordering from them
Thanks for the help

It takes them a little while, but the parts you get are stock.Unless of course you order their aftermarket parts.
 
I have ordered from them with no problems. Usually if they show a price it is available, It doesn't tell you if it is in stock or not.
 
I've ordered from them a couple of times, mostly with good luck, but you should give their shipping policy a look over, it can be intimidating! I had to wait a whole month to find out they couldn't get something for me once, and if you cancel it they charge you a restocking fee for something they don't have, kinda stupid. So if it is something you need right away try to call them to place the order, I've learned that the long way with any company on line. ALWAYS CALL TO FIND OUT IF THEY HAVE WHAT YOU WANT!!! Or you could be forced to wait for something you need unable to cancel it.
Hope this helps?!?

thank you all for your input . Sounds like a good company to me . & i will call in my order .

Thanks again folks :D
 
You might want to check www.ronayers.com.
They seem to have the same availability of parts but have always been less expensive. RonAyers doesn't have the online fiche lookup (for the older bikes) so you need the part numbers at hand to check prices.

That helps me tremendously. I will never order anything from them.

The purpose of a "restock fee" is to cover the cost incurred to a company for shipping an item, and special ordering it if they had to. A nonstock item may sit in the warehouse for quite some time before being sold, so a distributor has to at least be partially compensated for the financial burden of buying and storing what may be an unmovable item.

To charge a restocking fee for a part that the seller never received, and can cancel with the click of a mouse at no cost, is nothing more than theft.

Bad business. Period.
