    Thats good site.

    Need to change to a neutral shoe now and was looking at the Lunar, bit weary though changing to Nike as have been a NB wearer now which I found good for the adventure running.

    Any sign of New Balance shoes there .sub4?

    I had been looking for a particular spike for my daughter and after reading the posts here on boards I contacted sub4 and I have to say they were great. They had not got the one's she wanted at this time but went out of their way to point me in the right direction as she needed them asap, brill customer service and I have to say on the basis of first impressions and customer service they are second to none.

    Hi guys, it does look like a good site but it also looks like boards Ltd is being used to self promote, so maybe look into adverts.ie.
    Thanks

    It costs about 3 euro for 1000 ads targetted to a specific area of the site.

    Thats good value too and I just wanted to let you all know. :):)

    ... as the locals might say.

    My new pair of Kayanos arrived first thing this morning, ordered them late Monday night. Almost €30 cheaper then any other Irish outlet I could find, plus an old copy of Irish Runner magazine thrown in. Thanks to the OP.

    They were operating fine yesterday, so I'd say its just a website issue.
    Hi DeVore,

    ^ Probably my finest hour on Boards, back in the good old days when I used be fun- I love self-reference and tangled hierarchies.:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 14 sb4


    Still very much alive and kicking, our server is down today though, we are on the case with our IT company and trying to resolve asap.
    thanks

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26 wishihadalife


    I am having trouble accessing the site again today , anyone else?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14 sb4


    Apologies "iwishihadalife" for down time at start of week. We had to get work on the site to fix our home page. Back up all week - wish I studied IT programming in college, it would save us having to call in the IT calvary for any IT problems!!

    It's a great little site but I'm afraid you'll have to let go of your "IT experts" - the amount of business you're losing with this "account suspended" stuff must add up to a lot. To let it happen once is ok, but if it's repeatedly happening, you'll have to seriously rectify it or you'll get a reputation that you don't deserve.

    Other that the site issues, major well done for the set up & competitive pricing as well as fast customer service.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14 sb4


    Thanks for feedback Stamford Bridge. Admittingly, the IT issues are breaking our heart. After todays second site fail in two days, our "IT experts" are getting the sack. If anyone would like to PM me details of someone who would like to earn a few quid and can upgrade website code and help keep a website "live", please dont hesitate to call!

    We're rebuilding the the back-end of the site at the moment which will hopefully stop any future downtime so the site has been offline while we work on it. We should be back up in the next 24 hours. One step backwards for two steps forward hopefully.

    @ sb4

    Is there any chance we will see some XC shoes like salomon on the site anytime soon?


  • Registered Users Posts: 749 ✭✭✭Whitehawk


    Qustion still stands open?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14 sb4


    No plans for the salamon range at the moment, alot of suppliers look for contracts to buy x amount per year and demand for salamon just wouldn't be high enough for us to supply. Any of the bigger brands like Nike or adidas xc range wouldn't be a problem.
