hey
i am really pissed off. i had ordered a nicolai 2mxtb which arrived approx 1 month ago. only to find that nicolai had built it to the wrong specs. after much discusion, it was agreed that they would build me a new one. great! i submitted the order on the 14th oct and recieved confirmation on the 15th.
now this is where i get annoyed. the various models of frame that nicolai produce are made in batches. i was lead to believe that you would never have more than 6-8 weeks to wait for delivery.
so why is it i have been informed, by nicolai-uk, that they cannot give me a delivery date- all that i have been told is that it will be in the new year. 9 weeks would have been Dec 17th, surely long enough to build a frame.
the frame including custom paint, headset and reducer cups is costing me about a £1000. this is a large amount of money for me to spend on a frame. obviously this is chump change to nicolai-germany, as they refused to cover the cost of the original cock-up, which was placed upon nicolai-uk.
the whole situation, which was supposed to exciting, is starting to sour for me, to the point where i feel like cancelling the lot.
anyway, what do you think. should i cancel and look elswhere?
look forward to hearing your veiws
