Do you get incented for getting people to sign up?
As in extra discounts for you?

You get a $10 credit after someone you refer makes their first purchase or something like that.
Seems like a more involved version of chainlove. Weird that you have to be a member and its invite only or waitlist basis. Anybody else have any experience with this site?
Didn't see the post above mine. So OP, do you have an invite, orrrrrrr, is this just a tease? 661 is the only helmet brand whose sizing system makes sense for my head size so I'm intrigued.

They're just getting started from what I understand, they specialize in clearing our company over stock like Backcountry does with their "one deal at a time" sites. The twist they use is multi-day sales on the whole line at once. They're out of Portland...the guys that started it have backgrounds in apparel if I remember right from the article i read about the company.
And I think they are just a clearing house...they don't inventory the stuff themselves.

i used a fake email address to log in. i didn't buy anything though. Prices are good, but they didn't have the knee pads I want and I don't need a helmet bad enough to use that site.
The site is rad. They ship quickly and have new deals from different companies every few days. I've made 4 or 5 purchases from them. This is one of the first MTB ones, though.
Give it a whirl. Here's a few screen grabs of some of the prices. Lots of other good stuff up there too.

can someone tell me if they have the Dakine Tailgate pad available before I sign up?
I ask bc this thread does tiptoe the line between content and spam... Be advised.
You have to have an "invite" to sign up, hence the special link. Otherwise you go on the waitlist and potentially miss the deal.
I'm a member (ha!) who wants an invite?
No. They don't.
I'm am member and have been since it started. I've ordered stuff as it, as have a few friends.
The only caveat is that shipping can and may take forever as they do not ship directly it seems. It's all drop shipped. I roommate ordered stuff about a year ago to a US address and it took almost a month to arrive with excuses the entire time about "well we didn't ship it directly..."
Your mileage may vary. The deals are sick tho and the products, while delayed, was as advertised.
Basically, Beast owes me a beer now.
How is it that all these sites save me money, yet everytime I use them my bank account empties?
Yeah I took a look at their shipping policy and it said two to four weeks. Yikes. But maybe worth it for those prices. Had my eye on that 661 EVO for a minute.
I'm guessing Beast = Brandon Turman aka bturman of Vital.Whoever Brandon Turman is... you're welcome for signing up with your referral.

I've been a member for a while and since I really need a new trail helmet, ordered one of hte 661. At that price, why not. Regarding shipping, the expected ship date for my order is July 13, so yeah, it takes a while.
Their shipping sucks. It can take forever to get your stuff. That being said, you do get it, eventually. And it's not even close to the first MTB sale, either. Lots of MTB stuff has been up in the past.
Tiptoes? You're supposed to get a $10 credit with your personal invitation referring your family and friends, not by spamming the Ridemonkey DH forum with a link to your referral page. Beast is making money off of the clicks from his posting. How is this not spam?
Okay, let me rephrase. I've had good luck with shipping on my previous 4 orders, and this is the first MTB sale since I've been a member.
Again, you have to have an "invite" to sign up, hence the special link. Otherwise you go on the waitlist and potentially miss the deal. I consider my fellow monkeys to be friends...
