swearmouth (Dec 13, 2011 at 16:08)

the shin pads cover your knee too, that would be redundant.

kolbiez- you can. Claw has said that he does that for DJ'ing in an interview on the IXS site.

They should make a pair of the knee pads without the screen printing. I have a pair of Race Face Digs and they leave green paint on my top tube.

swearmouth (Dec 14, 2011 at 9:07)

661 kyle straight, or whatever they're called now. Can't recommend them enough, and the only screening they have is a white 661 logo on the knee.

its better than paying shipping on top of the regular price

+ 11

stever (Dec 13, 2011 at 14:47)

Well, I can't say whether that's a good price for shipping to UK or not, but they want the same price for shipping to Canada. I would expect that shipping withing the same continent would be cheaper than overseas, but apparently not. Their shipping costs take a good deal and ruin it.

+ 2

MTB-RnD (Dec 13, 2011 at 15:23)

$35 for a set of pads to Canada. To get a cheaper rate go with USPS...just hit the "Live" chat. Shipping rates are passed on from UPS on the website.

samminett (Dec 13, 2011 at 19:20)

god i dont want to have a look for the price for shipping to New Zealand :O

stever (Dec 14, 2011 at 7:37)

@MTB-RnD:
I got a price of $48 because I was looking at shin, elbow, and vest. UPS is such a rip-off. The only way the shipping would actually be reasonably priced is if it included customs/brokerage fees, but the UPS's website isn't clear on that.

Edit:

Also, I don't see anywhere on the website for a "live chat" to enquire about USPS. Just an email contact section.

+ 1

MTB-RnD (Dec 14, 2011 at 9:47)

It's on the lower right corner. It is a button marker, "Chat with Salesperson".

Your best option for shipping is to call: (541) 201-8798

buffalo1313 (Dec 14, 2011 at 10:29)

with ups, you pay customs fees when the product is over $50 i believe..

+ 1

smike (Dec 14, 2011 at 11:02)

Also, with UPS, you get charged brokerage fees. However, UPS does not disclose how they "calculate" their brokerage fees. I have been charged brokerage fees up to 40% of the value of the package.

+ 1

stever (Dec 14, 2011 at 11:19)

I purchased something online once, either Jenson or Pricepoint, and they had their shipping charges worked out so that you paid your customs duties up-front, so nothing was due on delivery. I can't remember the shipper was though, FedEx or UPS.

+ 1

smike (Dec 14, 2011 at 11:32)

Jenson does that. And I think they ship via FedEx. Definitely not UPS. It's nice to not have any surprises when the package arrives at your door!

MTB-RnD (Dec 14, 2011 at 12:12)

@nstraffic94

There was an anomaly in your basket. It double charged you. So sorry, your shipping should be around half or so. Give her another try.

Everyone,

We have done some homework. A lot of items have been moved down in box sizes for UPS. The Slope guards are about 13" long and don't really fold very well. Hacks ship easy. Assaults don't fold...but we are packing the orders into the smallest box we can. The UPS rates are straight from UPS...we have NO handling charges.

Looks like their shipping to Canada includes the cross border customs charges. UPS and the other courier companies charge $35 to do the paperwork. USPS charges $5.I just refuse to buy stuff cross border unless they ship it by post.

+ 1

smike (Dec 14, 2011 at 11:03)

I find that UPS is the only one that does this. I have had no problems with FedEx or Purolator. One time I got charge over $80 in brokerage fees for a $200 package with UPS.

a website that lists "Categories 1-5 of 5" and then clearly shows six categories isn't getting a penny of my money...
