oh thats decent, I'd stopped checking the EU sites since all the brexit palava.
Edit - have you ordered much from R2 post brexit? Taxes to pay on delivery?
I logged into my account there and it seems all prices are with 0% VAT

not the best customer service evah... had a very bad experience for a rotor chainring (and I was in Germany and they are Germany-based) which took 4 months to arrive (and was in stock!).

I've made 5 orders and have 1 awaiting stock, all below £135 and have had no issues. I made 1 order that I later cancelled while waiting for stock which they were fine with.

Interesting, I've only used R2 pre-brexit and got on ok but didn't have to return anything/interact with customer services.
I basically gave up ordering anything from the German sites after Brexit. But I haven't looked into it for a while, are most of them now back to delivering to the UK?

ah right ok so orders that are sub £135 are fair game with out import fees?
-
• #4782
me too about brexit/stuff from Europe.
Problem I had with r2 was in 2016..perhaps they have improved their cs.. -

Yes & I included postage in that £135 to be safe. r2 might be doing it wrong and should be paying the VAT(?!) but have been OK so far.

Mid-December but was on an out of stock item, should ship soon. -

Yeah I’ve just ordered a pair right now.
Possible you’ve signed into the site with the wrong country selected?

Yeah I’ve just ordered a pair right now.
Of the centreline discs from R2? How? I get the 'cannot deliver to you' message too as I do when I go on most eu nbased webshops.

Something not quite right here. Notice how yours says 'including 19% vat'
mine shows 0% and 37.40 euros
Ive already received the dhl tracking number so they are certainly on the way
Maybe delete all cookies on your browser or something? Trying another browser might be worth a punt.

Yeah that's sorted it, strange.
Signed in/not doesn't make any difference for Bike24 though where the message is just "Product not shippable to Great Britain (excluding Northern Ireland)".
-
• #4794
Yeah I noticed this. It seems for what ever reason Bike24 have just sacked off the UK completely.
CRC bought Bike24 or Bike24 bought CRC, cant mind which way round it is, so it might be a business decision to try keep UK folk ordering from CRC. -
• #4795
Worth trying on other eu based places though.
-
• #4796
I think that CRC-Wiggle sold Bike24 back to its former owners 2-3 years ago
-
• #4797
I did not know that!
-
• #4798
They’re still fairly intimately connected (or at least were when I had both as customers a year ago) I thought they had the same parent company still but i never had anything that totally verified that
