I try and support brick and mortar whenever possible, and you usually have it that day.  The one on-line I wouldn't deal with again is Chaparral.

Most of the big online places have a brick and mortar store somewhere. 


It's all online in these parts unless you want to drive all day to get to a store that actually has anything in stock.

Fortunately I don't have to go very far for any brick & mortar stores. I only buy online if the local peeps don't have or can't get what I'm looking for.

I've been to the original store in Springfield, OH (bought my boots there), but I see from their website that the original store is no longer associated with the online operation, which is now in Rock Hill, SC...

The old Competition Accessories Motorcycle & ATV Superstore in Springfield, Ohio has been serving local riders since 1993. The store is a full line franchised Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Ducati dealer offering sales and service on these and other models.  The Ohio retail store is owned and operated by ride motorcycles inc. and is no longer connected to www.compacc.com or the South Carolina catalog outlet store.  They also offer a large selection of aftermarket parts and accessories displayed in an award winning store design. If you are in the central Ohio area be sure to stop in to check out the new and used Motorcycles, ATVs and Scooters. (Note: prices and selection at this location will not match the pricing and products posted internet, catalogs and magazine ads.)  for all Aftermarket Parts and Accessories use www.compacc.com for your orders.

Thanks to our buddy Chris, I had a good email exchange with someone in the office.

He said he took care of a few problems and he said they threw in something extra for my troubles. I will update this post next week after the new merchandise arrives.

As far as local, not a chance. The ONLY local dealer carries a very limited stock. His standard response is he can order in anything I want, but I have to prepay for it and if I return it there is a restocking fee.

Uh... no thanks.

If I want to order something, I will do it from an online vendor I am comfortable with and will go somewhere is if I am not satisfied.

I have met had an issue with compacc. They have always had good customer service for me and quick delivery. I hope your next order goes smoother

To be fair, he's not just "a" guy... He's "the" guy. R is the product manager, full line. It pays to have an inside guy. ;)

I'll be doing another gear review for them, soon. :thumbsup:
