Apollo13 Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 I took my Magura HS-33 into halfords a couple of weeks ago, they told me "yea sure, it will be done in a couple of days". so i though okay fine yea do it, a week later, havent herd from them. I ring them, "okay we'll ring you again tomorrow when its done". A week later, not heard from them at all. So then i give them a ring to find out what the hell is going on, now they tell me they havent even got the hosing in yet, because it has to come from germany.... GERMANY???? I mean wtf is going on? Are they messing me around, or are they telling the truth?? Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duck Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 I work in Halfords Bikehut,if they ordered the tube direct from magura then yes it comes from germany,takes abit longer but not 2 weeks,get onto the manager and he/she will sort them out. hil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 The thing is why didn't they just tell you stright? Like f**king bikedock they did this to me, if you want to hear the full stroy let me know, people just wont tell you the truth anymore. :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si-man Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 Don't you know anyone around your area that knows how to sort maggies out? They aren't that difficult really to fix, and yes, magura parts do come from Germany, since Magura is German Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartridge Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 magura parts do come from Germany, since Magura is German ← The logical place would be Magura UK though... seeing as they are the UK distributor! JT, whats your story? I once heard one about a bike that was sent out, and didnt arrive cos it got lost. And then it magically turned up back at the shop, so they could send it out again :angry:" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
