Ouch, I just got supergoed in the a$$

[pakutrick]

So I ordered an SGS for 1300 US right. They then sent me a warrior comp. Obviously I'm returning the warrior.

But here's the problem.

In 2 weeks I'm going to get a bill in the mail from fedex for around 150$ for duty on the bike.

If I return the warrior and get a refund (they have no more SGSs) they will refund my money, but they won't pay for duty.

WTF do I do? I don't want to exchange for some other bike, I just want my money back.

You can get duty back. Click the link below for the form.

That's if the $150 is duty, if it's brokerage fees, you're probably stuck with it.

yup bastard brokerage

wow, now that is good info. Thanks allot man.

I'm going to see if I can work out a deal on another bike from supergo tomorrow (maybe they'll cut me a deal on a 7.3)

if not that will come in super handy.

actually fedex only charges 25.50 US brokerage, way less than UPS. And if you can get the sender to send other than ground you don't get charged brokerage. (ie fedex int economy and higher)

110 bux is from gst on the bike so that I can get back it seems.

if you use usps they hand it over to canada post for brokerage and they charge $5 can.

i think you should buy my bike instead. :D
at least that way you'll be funding me for another bike and keep me riding :P
i'll even bring it to you so no shipping costs

usps has a size limit. They won't ship bikes I think.

plus I hear allot of horror stories about them + no tracking.

only buying used if I can get a full refund (my costs, not theirs).

one was asking about any bikes I could get because my sgs didn't come. this one is just a rant about supergo in general.
