So Nashbar's having a sale, 72 items, 72% off

[VeloVT]

The thing that ticked me off about the Nashbar data breach was that the coupon they sent me in apology was only good for 30 days after the date of the letter (and of course I received the letter at least a week later than it was dated). Data breaches happen, but that seemed like crappy customer care to me.

I wasn't affected by the cc problem, had only done Performance in-store & cash with them last couple years. But needed a couple things that Nashbar had on the 72 things sale (previous iteration at Halloween) and decided to give them a chance.

Turns out they charged me the non-72 item sale price (not full price, but not the special price)!! And didn't inform me that one of the items was out of stock. Took a call and email before they straightened it out. Quick refund. But WATCH OUT if you do order on this sale, and save your confirmation email.

Count me among the reformed...I won't be going back. Darn. In these economically pinched times I need those kinds of sales here and there!

I, too, have been burned by both Performance & Nashbar. No more. There is a Performance retail store about 40 miles from me & their stock is dismal. Won't be going back in-store or online for either retailer.

I've been satisfied with bags from Nashbar/Performance but the clothing has ranged from ok to "what-were-they-thinking?" to completely unacceptable.
