    Anyone ordere items off castelli style Ireland, been waiting over a month a nothing received yet. Website just says my order status as processing. Payment was taken out of bank. I emailed twice the support email from website and yet to get a response. Just wondering if anyone else experienced similar issue and the gear is very cheap for castelli compared to bike shops.

    It's all fake.

    Shipping and returns quote Boston scientific in the us.

    But it looks like a fake far east website

    I'd say bye bye to what ever you paid.

    Rule of thumb, if it looks too good to be true........

    when you see proper B&M shops here selling Fake Castelli gear, and not hiding it as fake, and advertising as such, will give you an idea how prevalent and widespread fake castelli gear is, probably the most knocked off cycling brand. in general i'd be very wary of where you buy castelli gear, make sure you know it's legit before spending the money

    Lots of those dud sites around, for all kinds of high end brands, you really have to check them carefully.

    On a separate note, is there any way of buying from castelli cafe? Last time i checked it was uk only and deliveries had to be signed for.

    Must be fake Castelli


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,235 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    The site is genuine but the gear is fake. You place your order and its shipped by slow boat from China which is why it takes over 6 weeks (and is cheap) You'll probably find the seller also sells on Ali-Express.

    That's what motels do, even the ones of a parcel variety.

    Tip to save a few quid on Castelli Cafe: Open an account and add items to your basket, but don't buy them. Leave it a day or two and they'll email you a voucher for 5-10% off your basket, like the Wiggle 'Was there a problem' emails when you do the same thing, but with a discount voucher attached.

    Was not aware this existed. Oh well, there goes this months wages :)

    It would normally be about now that I'd be gearing up for my next order but a crash later and a €260 bill for a rear mech!


  • Registered Users Posts: 421 ✭✭SetOverSet


    Ouch.

    I should really hold off - impulse ordered new 105 5800 pedals and Sidi shoes this morning, oh and Castelli Diluvio overshoe too - winter is coming.
