Muel Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Nice...If I was to buy online the shop would have to:- Have a good variety of good quality parts.- Have good feedback and reputation.- Neat and professional website.- Have cheaper prices compared to other online shops, and different offers.Good luck If I was to buy from the online shop it would have to:- Be better than Tarty, which so far no one has managed. IMO. (Select is as good as before anyone says anything).Trials UK is on the up, to be honest, yo0ur entering a market about 4 years too late, your going against three shops that provide excellent service, top nothc websites and friendly, helpful staff.I'm sticking with tarty now, I've met Adam and email him every few weeks, he's always my first port of call for help and advice.Oh by the way, the website in your sig?Taken, clinical trials mate. You really should get your website up and running, THEN announce it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTrials08 Posted November 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 We apologise for the signature, he's a bit keen on getting the website done, but the web developers are in process in completing. We do understand we are entering the market a bit too late but to be honest were not in it for the money, as we've said we are going to be dedicated to the South. We will take your opinions and requests into serious concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stig Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 How do you suppose to create a fully working Trials Specific store when you have only just joined this site? This suggest to me that you are new to the sport yourself or very isolated form the world and if you id get one up and running fair play would be awesome have you thought about location? Portsnouth would probably bes a good meeting point. THen you would have to compete against other stores in the area. COuld you stay open on just trials psecific parts alone? I'm sur eyou have thought of this and pherhaps if you had a ride to celbrate the opening i.e evey hampshire rider give out some t-shirts and have a forum like this for your site? just some suggestions!! P.s hit me with a t-shirt deffo i have none like a tramp!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravemonkey Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 if your shop does end up being better than the othersHow far will you be able to deliver toIs cornwall to far if not then you have a potentual customerGood luck with it thoughyou will need it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshball Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Looks all good and well and if the shop does open then i will be going to it...But just remember trials-uk is opening a shop and come its trials-uk!No compition.But thinking about it we all start somewhere.Good luck for it all and if you need staff ten im ere!Echo.JoshX-x-X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Cristoff Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 (edited) Boss does have a point, can you survive on just trials parts? I mean i would deffo use you and all.Where are you setting up shop, as Portsmouth suffers as it has no bikeshop at all.how much you wanting for a promo tee?Chrisps. cant find your site Edited November 29, 2007 by elcristoff-t-pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d6116 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 All I can say is competition drives down prices so I'm all for it, go for it guys! Being new to this I can appreciate what the others are saying about competition, you'll have to be on top of your game to compete at all with the likes of Tarty, but don't let any of those comments put you off doing your best!...so southwest trains have happily agreed to sponsor and build a trials course built just for us!maybe we could put them in touch with you and they could help you with this shop your starting and to get a course built up!!if your intrested get in touch with me Just had to say WOW to this Sponge Rob! Xtrials are foolish if they don't take you up on this, them having their logo (assuming they'll have one by the time it's built) plastered all over the site, surely to good a chance to miss.Oh yeah and T-shirts are a great idea (actually that must mean you have a logo :$ sorry)D6116 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
