Chainlove.com.... weak?
It seems like they keep showing the same stuff over and over again. Someone needs to diversify their inventory...

I dunno, seems to have has much variety as steepandcheap, with less of the ski stuff I don't care about.

yup--same stuff over and over.
site's a marketing gimmick where the truly good deals are few and far between.

it takes all of one second to check and see if the current item is something you want, I'll deal with all the "between" crap and marketing and get the things that I need and are cheap.

I think I'm going to be real happy with the Oakley XC mountain biking shorts I got for $26.56 + $7.56 shipping.

I bought one of the Easton EA70 stem's they had on Friday. The picture showed the four bolt which is the 2008 model. They sent me an email stating that it had shipped. Then about 15 minutes later they send me an email that the picture was wrong and that what was the two bolt version but I should feel good that the two bolt version was the 2008 version. When I sent them as email stating that they were incorrect and that the two bolt version was actually 2007 they told me if I didn't want it I could send it back. They did send me a shipping label so I don't have to pay return shipping but I am not sure they have any idea what they are selling.

To me it's not worth weeding through all the junk to get the one deal you're looking for to save four dollars.

its blessing in disguise, considering what that site could be doing to my wallet.

I really feel that they only throw one or two good items up a day. That's fine by me, just scored another set of Keo carbons for $125 shipped.

My beef is the shipping charges....that $19.99 jersey looks like a good deal, until you add in the $8 shipping....
