184.1 | Buyer Beware | MODULE::SCHNARE | CHARLIE SCHNARE | Thu Dec 04 1986 08:17 | 21 |

I to have ordered some stuff from Performance Bicycle Shop.
A jacket,pants, jersey, polypropylene neck protector and a
polypropylene ear band. Two days ago the neck protector
arrived. Everything else is on back order.
The long and the short of this story is that if you order
from the Performance Bike Shop don't expect to receive
everything because my experience with these people is that
they do not deliver in a timely manner. If you can wait and your
not in a hurry there ok. My biggest gripe is that they should
know whats in stock and whats not and tell you that when you
place your order.
Sooo buyer beware!!!!

184.2 | Let's sell them a VAX | AKOV05::FULLER | | Fri Dec 05 1986 11:10 | 2 |
| Sounds like we should send in a DEC sales rep and quote
an inventory control system for them.

184.3 | And then... | SHIVER::JPETERS | John Peters, DTN 266-4391 | Fri Dec 05 1986 16:31 | 1 |
| And then we'd ship it to them with the CPU back ordered... :-)

184.4 | non 800 check for merchandise | WARLRD::JBINGHAM | John Bingham | Mon Dec 08 1986 14:46 | 4 |
| The order desk at the 800 number only took orders when I called
once. I called the non 800 number and got the stuff I wanted set
aside and ordered that way. This has worked at Pedal Pushers and
Performance.

A similar thing happened when I ordered the Performance Rollers.
I quickly ordered them as soon as the catalog came out that
announced them, figuring that a quick response would avoid a
back order. Well...I got a quick response from _them_ stating
that the rollers were back ordered...for 6 weeks. About a week
later, they arrived.

184.6 | Performance has two warehouses | JETSAM::HANAUER | Mike...Bicycle~to~Ice~Cream | Fri Dec 12 1986 19:52 | 8 |
| I had a similar experience with Performance.
The bo'ed item, as I recall, came from a west coast warehouse. Seems
like the two warehouses don't communicate too well.
Did therefore get the Pacer shoes, which I like, sooner than expected.
