Shipping cost of your boards when you ordered? - Snowboarding Forum

deejay · 05-16-2011, 01:22 AM

wasup people, just wanted to ask this question. if you bought a snowboard off then internet, how much was your shipping cost? i paid $80.00 for my NS board, is that about right or is that alot?

Costs have risen but that seems like a lot. Depends on where you're shipping to and from.

Utah to denver. just checked the website and it even says free shipping with orders over $75. don't know if it had something to do with NS sending them the order or what cuz i originally ordered it off the NS website and then the other store sends me a email about how they got my order from NS and after that i checked my checking account and they charged about $80.

US132$ Salt Lake City to New Zealand for a 151 with no bindings.
80$ for Utah to Denver seems like a lot.

I hope they used lube cause you just got ass raped. Last time I shipped a board from Breckenridge to SLC it was 28 bucks.

Sounds fishy to me, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't NS factory in Denver? If you ordered it off thier site, why would it be coming from Utah?

deejay · 05-16-2011, 10:32 AM

hahaha, no lube for sure. NS is in denver but don't know why they sent my order to UT. one of my friend says that NS wants to support there distributor's so thats why they don't ship anything from there warehouse. didn't think that was true intil i bought one and they had the store in UT send it to me instead.

They actually don't sell very many boards out of their factory. If any really. Their splitboards were the made to order thing at the factory this year. Next season splitboards will be at their retailers. They certainly don't keep boards in stock to sell on their website.

Anyway, Neversummer keeps track of their dealer inventories. When you order through their website, they get the stuff from the nearest dealer in their network who has the goods you want. Sounds like Salt Lake was the spot for this one.

It's actually a pretty sweet thing that they do this. Shipping costs for you aside...

all in all, i aint mad about it, its more suprising but what can i do. this board was a birthday gift for someone cuz if it wasn't then i probably would of returned it instead. all i can say is i bought me a libtech banana magic and it was 200 dollars cheaper then the NS sl board that i bought. thanks for the feedback people
