What's up with SlikStik
« on: April 29, 2006, 04:32:56 am »
I have tried to order 2 Tornade Spinners from SlikStik for over two weeks.

First I did as they said in their FAQ and sent an email to find out international shipping costs. I have sent at least 3 emails to their different adresses without any reply (except some automated answers)

Then I tried to place the order via their webstore but after I have added all information including paypal it just shows an error message and asks me to contact the site administrator.

Now I notice that the price has increased from $70 to $90.

Try ordering a couple TurboTwistsTM from Groovy Game Gear, and see if THEY want to sell you something.

Weird, I ordered my Tornado Spinner last week from SlikStik and it has already shipped. I'm expecting it either today or Monday.

placed an order fpr two illuminated sticks and they arrived w/in three days.  And I ordered Saturday nite.  FAst to me!!!

My stainless sticks also came within three days or ordering them.  However, e-mail inquiries I have made were also slow to answer.  You might just try giving them a call.

Your screen name has been added to my frag list.

Could also try PMing christian from SlikStik...he's pretty active on the boards. I have also heard, once you do contact them, they are more than helpful.
I just don't understand why some of their transactions and responses are slow.

Christian has always bent over backward to swap products when I've changed my mind about stuff.  Always fast shipping.  Phone is best way to get a hold of him.

Best advice in this thread so far. Your emails will also be answered as a bonus.
