Post by popkat »

Didn't expect this 8O had loads of stuff off themover the years, hope they find a buyer will be a shame if they're gone for good

they carry a huge amount of stock. i suppose having thousands of pounds worth of helmets and leathers sitting about cant help?. ive never been in a branch i thought was particularly busy. the only stuff ive ever bought is some brake spray and some oil on a 2 for 1 deal with a voucher. i suppose its a symptom of the fact that we buy loads of gear off the internet

I was going to say the Internet is killing all the high st stores. The majority of Heine Gericke stuff on ebay is either old, reject or damaged stock.

The only problem with Internet sales killing the high street stores is that we wont have any knock off stuff from those stores being sold on the net cheaper for us to buy. :lol:

Hopefully they will survive, I've used them exclusively over the past few years. Good prices and at my local all bikers who are very helpful. Last time I went I wanted to try on some boots but couldn't find anyone - they were all outside looking at my new bike!

Got a load of new gear in May when they had the spend £160 get £40 off sale, so at least I'm ok for a while.
