Jag_Rip Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I can carry my Ninebot to my dealer on foot its that close. :-) But yeah, I paid premium for that. Its more like couple of hundred bucks I could've saved by ordering myself from china. My take was that I could get spareparts and repairs done within a week instead of waiting several weeks. But I have also read in here that some dealers dont really live up to that expectation making their customers wait for weeks until they get spareparts shipped from china. In that case, I can order the parts myself, its not that complicated to take it apart... I am OK when a dealer adds value in terms of stock or experience, but have no mercy if I find out they are just parcel pushers with a screwdriver...

Distributer Mike Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Thank you for your reply Jag-Ripi know exactly what you mean, and if people call themselves a dealer then be the part.carry inventory parts and machines, but there are to many that just sell the product for the money and that's it, I guess that what most people want.if most people bought locally then the dealers would have to carry inventory or at lest that's what I believe and expect.

Jag_Rip Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 thats the nice thing, thanks to the internet it doesnt have to be physically "local" anymore you can get parts sent to you from your guy hundreds of miles away nowadays. So even to have one piece of the most replaced parts ready while covering your whole country via parcel service in a case of emergency doesnt really cut into the numbers. Yet why do that, when nobody complains and waits patiently for you to order the part first yourself.For more complicated parts, the dealer network should be able to take care of it, If my car needs a replacement part, that my servicepoint usually doesnt stock, within a day they can get it from a central warehouse maintained by the dealers network.

Douglas Ingram Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 I like the fact I can shop anywhere around the globe to get the best price, and if it goes wrong, I can ask on forums what's gone wrong, then repeat the same shopping around the globe for the best price.

Phil Wright Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I'm awaiting my 9BO e+ and as my first euc Im quite happy with the power that it offers.i cant imagine being on a wheel that can do 40kmh, jesus....I guess for some this is an important feature in buying their wheel, but for me as a newbie to the scene a comfy speed around town will be perfect for me.i guess down the track the P buyers will be deciding wether to upgrade to the "P+", then the new R model will come out followed by the R+.i personally think that their will be a "legal limit" speed wise that all manufacturers will hit for fear of serious injuries, and will have them focus more on wheel improvemnts, lights front and rear, asthetics etc.Any good pics anyone...?thanks in advanceFound a few...srry to block this up...cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuerte Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Okay Ninebot, I am ready to order, let's get these things out already! It looks like no one in the US has access, every website says preorder only, bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninebot hasn't even answered my service mail (Over a week now) yet so I think you did a wise choice. UPDATE: Just got mail from Ninebot. TBC.

Fuerte Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I would happily order from Speedyfeet, but I am over in the US and that would take a long time and be very expensive. :-) He sure does a great job with his videos however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuerte Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Well, bummer, I am on the list but only 30 came in, so I will not get mine in the first batch. They ordered 150, but only got 30. I guess the wait continues for me, sadness in my house tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
