Are you guys concerned at all about import charges and customs fees for an item coming from the UK? I'm in Canada and I ordered a pair but am worried that if we are hit with a big customs fee, it will make the value of this deal non-existent.
Dont they usually charge you those fees at checkout? I've ordered from End Clothing and Charles Tyrwitt and didnt have to pay any custom fees.
 
Not sure if this is Joes under retail, but probikekit has them for $123 the og black cw in UK sizes, and there's a coupon to get 10% off your first order. From UK, estimated to get to me July 3rd in FL, just ordered last night so around 2-3 week shipping hopefully, total ended up being $111 and some change, which I consider a steal. It is UK sizes though, just a heads up. Hope this helps a few people out! http://m.probikekit.com/sports-foot...-boost-running-shoes-black/gold/11085960.html
And just google for the coupon code.

Repped. Was going to cop but realized the Canadian site actually still ships out of the UK. Not about to pay $45cad in taxes and duty.
 
believe there's only customs if your Order is over $200. Screwed up my address on checkout and customer service sucks tho accidentally entered my house number where it said house number and address cuz of auto fill so my address looks like 12 12 1st st instead of 12 1st st and they won't respond to me. Hopefully it doesn't matter. Hope everyone gets a good deal.

Not on pbk, it says in their help section they aren't responsible for import/customs/duty fees. But you guys in the US don't have to worry about those. Not at this price range anyways.
 
Customs are never charged at checkout. It's up to the US government
What criteria do they use to determine whether to charge you or not? Im not tripping if it's a small amount. Just think of it as a sales tax fee
 
It's supposed to be based on value, like said above usually applies to $200+ declared value. Depends on who handles the shipment it seems. One agent might let it go thru while the next will hit you with fees.
 
Has anyone dealt with this company and why does it seem fishy that they marked 40% off this shoe? Read some reviews. Some good some bad, seems like they mostly deal with bikes, want to order but seems too good to be true.

What company, what shoes?

ProBikeKit? If so, I ordered the UB's from them on June 1 and they arrived a few days ago.. They're legit
 
Sorry, yes I was referring to Probikekit. Good to hear people have ordered successfully off them. Makes me more confident if I order from them. Do they double box their shipment?

Unfortunately not.. The box was a little beat up but was still intact 
 
 Good stuff that probikekit.com is legit, but as many of you have mentioned, it can be Russian roulette with customs fees. I bought the Core Black for full retail price + taxes but best believe those will be getting returned with the quickness when shipping confirmation comes from probike. I actually really like the OG colorway as well but like many have mentioned, wanted them at a discounted price. Also, the 10% off code hasn't worked for me no matter how many times I've entered it and how I've entered it. It says this item is excluded from the code every time...hmm

EDIT: The price on probikekit.com has gone back up in price. It was at 40% off and now is at 25% off. Maybe it was a price mistake originally at the 40% off. Hope my order is filled...

Originally bought the Ultra Boost for the gym and light running, but these have become my everyday/work shoe because of how comfortable these are. Are there any durability issues with the sole/midsole? I'm trying to decide if I need to double up on these
 
just purchased the ultra boost consortium from a seller online.  Was wondering if people thought they were that much better then the normal pair (purchased the white/white pair)  Seems to be higher quality then the normal pair based on what ive read.
 
damn is the probike deal over?

price is coming up as 150 something for me.

They're definitely nicer, I guess it depends on how much extra you paid. Personally, I really like this sneaker so it was worth it to track down the premium versions.

The sole wears out fairly quickly, even if you don't drag your feet (crazy fast if you do). Id recommend trying to double up (I would say so anyway, even if the sole didn't wear down haha).
