I found the men's Gore Tool SO jacket in neon yellow that I'm looking for at a substantially lower price than any retailer in the US...but I found it on Wiggle UK. They also offer free shipping to the USA, so that is another selling point for me. Does anyone have any experience (good or bad) buying from Wiggle?

I've never bought from Wiggle, but I have used PBK, Ribble, and Chain Reaction Cycles with good results. The reviews for Wiggle on the Road Bike Review forums are favorable. RBR is also a good place to check for coupon codes.

Also, be aware of any currency conversion charges that your credit card may apply.

I've bought stuff from Wiggle many times. Never any problems. Their return policy seems good too, but I have never needed it.

Thanks ladies! I'm going to head over to Performance today to try on the jacket again (they only sell it in red, which I don't want) and confirm which size I need...then I will order from Wiggle.

My husband orders from them all the time. We're on the Canadian West Coast (Vancouver) and packages tend to arrive within three business days. Pretty amazing. Good prices too. Personally I prefer working with my LBS, but Wiggle works great for him.

Cool...:cool: I just put my order in for a men's medium Gore Tool SO jacket in neon yellow. I'm so excited! I really love this jacket. It has a lot more features than most of the Gore women's jackets. The sleeves are long enough, the length is nice and offers a bit more coverage, and I love that it has pit zips for venting when the temp rises. It also has an adjustable neck opening(with one of the cord thingys) to cinch the neck tighter to block out the cold and wind. Yeah, it might not be as "stylish" as one of the women's jackets, and it does look a bit "boxy" on me overall...but it seems to be the best option out there for me at the moment, so I'm going with it. I let you know my thoughts when it arrives.
