Mad at National Cycle

ballast · 03-09-2009, 12:29 AM

I know this is my fault for not reading the "Fine Print". I returned 3 items that were never even opened back to National Cycle and they charged me 20% restocking fee. I emailed them and promised I would bad mouth them at every opprotunity. There will never be one of there products from any source on anything I ever own.

:) Keeping your promise.

Buyer beware

Been there done that. Watch the fine print because it can bite you in the butt later.
Sorry about your bad experience.

I've never liked that little rule companies have. Always sounds like just another way to rip the consumer off.

Bummer...

But I still want a set of front fender tips from them though.

Appreciate your frustration; but you might want to reconsider... don't know where else to get the fender tips.

Besides... when you think about it... if you were shipping product all over the country you could just imagine all of the orders you receive from those that "just want to look first" before they buy. It is far more than you may imagine, thus the $20 restocking fee; which is quite common if you think about it.

Just my two-cents...

Like my Grandpa used to say, the large print gives it to you & the fine print takes it away.....

Some of the manufacturers I work with in my line of work have a 50% restocking fee. That'll leave a mark! :-/
