Called into Ribble yesterday which is one of my local shops to pick up a few bits for the weekend.
Looks like theyve had a change in policy and no longer do counter sale.

Now you can only buy on line or order & collect.
Very dissapointed having waited for 10mins to be seen just to be told I couldnt be served.
They guy behind me was in the same boat and had travelled much further.

Needless to say theyve now lost a customer.

Thankfully Merlin isnt that far away and got my money.

    IIRC there was a notice about this on their Webby a few months back.

    still there
    PLEASE NOTE: Our Warehouse Shop is only available for THE SALE AND COLLECTION OF RIBBLE BIKES and for RESERVE AND COLLECT ORDERS.

    what ever that means.

    Smartphone? Reserve something there in front of them to demonstrate their foolishness?
    We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence
