Price fluctuation..
fallingoff
Posts: 332
I was looking on CR @ some hydra' brakes that I fancied..I hadn't decided so I was waiting to buy..over the course of a 4/5 days they went down in price then back up??
I almsot bought them when I scrolled down further and found a complete bike set (f&R) in gnarley LTD colours @ a bargain price.
I bought them @ about 11.40 pm (the benefits of nightshifts) and duely checked my mails this morning...I went to their website and to my suprise the ones I had bought had increased in price by £15.oo.. :shock: all this happened whilst I slept..but no horror story here the price I paid etc,I got the despatch e-mail earlier...
My question is is this normal for them or was I (un)lucky to find 2 items with the same fluctuation?they were the same make but different items.
Also my advice to prospective buyers is to watch the item for a while an buy it at a low..a bit like shares.... :?
That's the nearest I'd get to dealing...

CRC's prices yoyo all the time, it's why i'm so paranoid about buying from them, i'd be rather annoyed if I bought something and they knocked off 10/20/30% a few days later...0
