Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Finding a dealer

Hey guys

I always bought my shimano road bike pieces online. The trouble is that they will Always come OEM packaged, I wonder where I can buy the full normal product, i just can't find any other option, I find absurd to go to a bike shop and pay for nothing, if it was only an extra 10€ It would be ok, but I have often seen a bike shop asking almost 100€ extra just for ordering it.... not forgetting I´m often treated like trash, this seems to much for those extra stuff from a normal package.
An example: when i was searching for the Tiagra shifters I asked in about 5 different bike shops the price for the shifters they were asking about 150€ for them, knowing I bought online on eBay for about 50€, (By luck they where not Oem packaged and I came with nice little extras).
I live in Germany, Heidelberg if anyone have any tips or know any good store online or not it would be great.

Thanks peps

edit: the sites I often buy are:

bike24.de
rose bikes
planet x

cheers
