PSA: Sigma Sports Sale

Thanks gryphon jersey and cypress gilet for £36!!!

Thanks, bargain pair of foundation bibs ordered. Already have one pair, love the wind in my hair feel so couldn’t resist another pair at that price.

Just ordered a pair of Gore bib tights and a phantom jacket. A 7mesh jersey (just in time as I shredded my Rapha jersey last week), gilet and a couple of pairs of socks. 😎

Bought a long sleeve jersey in the wiggle sale last week as well. 😬

Should keep me stocked up for the winter, cheers for the PSA.

What a great PSA, I just ordered a pair of the foundation bibs and some glidepath shorts for £61 total (rrp £120 + £120).

Just got a pair of Patagonia running shorts for £9!

Ah that was you who bought those before i got a chance 😂

Ouch that was expensive! Thanks OP 🙂

Thanks Op, going to try some foundation bib shorts, probably not best to wear them without baggies though!

Thank you OP! Bagged my good lady a nice new wetsuit for her open water swimming.

Patagonia running top for less than half price. Thanks!

Some good deals if you search by discount. Stages m50 for £36!!

Also a sale on @ https://www.morvelo.com/sale.list

Hmmm anyone else think it’s a bit of a odd sale?

There’s so much discount off some stuff it seems too good to be true?

What’s the sizing like on those 7 mesh bibs as I could do with some and some light trail shorts too if anyone can see any?

The sizing charts on the 7mesh website are spot on.

Cheers for the PSA... a pair of DT Swiss 240S hubs for £90 will do nicely as the basis for some new gravel bike wheels.

As usual, don't forget Quidco.. 3.2% currently.

Needed a new larger helmet for winter...a Troy Lee Designs A1 for £11 will do nicely. Ta for the PSA!

I think there has been a mistake - some of those prices don't make sense. Also, if you click on some stuff it shows full price but if you add to basket you get vastly reduced price. I reckon someone at Sigma needs to check their site.

I ordered some 7mesh bibs based on the PSA, but looking dealer into it I think there’s going to be a lot of cancelled orders and refunds coming as a lot of items are way too cheap to be correct.

Loads of stuff in my basket have just doubled. I managed to get a 240 rear hub for £65 before it changed, let's see what happens.

Had a load of bits in my basket. £480 in total. Went to check out and it refused my payment and the basket went up to £1400!

The helmet I wanted is still at the lower price though so I’m happy with that.

Similar to others I noticed everything I bought has shot back up in price. If it comes through, I will have £465 worth of stuff for £130.

Yeah, a bit surprised to see Patagonia bibs for 28 quid, but we'll see what happens with the order.

🤞🏼

I bought a bunch of stuff at silly prices but after placing the order it was clear some or all of it was incorrectly priced - I've just messaged them to let them know and to cancel anything thats incorrect. Its hard enough running a retail business without having to sell stuff below cost.

Awesome PSA £44 instead of £320. Had to really resist more of the mons royale and 7mesh stuff as I love both but didn't really NEED more.

Don’t worry, I doubt you’ll get any of it.

Some weirdness for me too. BuT I still ordered some bib liners for buttons and a decent deal on some other stuff so if that works I'm good.

A couple of pairs of Castelli bib shorts for a sensible discounted price, and a couple of pairs of the 7 Mesh cargo shorts for silly cheap. Fully expecting to have the 7 Mesh ines cancelled based on the above.

Is the person Garmin sacked over the instinct debacle now working for Sigma?

I have ordered a gilet and helmet just in case though 😉

Last pair Brooks running shoes aka dog walking trainers @£18 reduced from £150(!)- let's see if they arrive.

I got a sent a confirmation email for my order so fingers crossed that it's processed.

I've spent just under two hundred quid but the retail price is more like six hundred 😬

Ahhh so I went to go check this, as was keen to find bargains. Could it be that bibs were 28 instead of 128? So basically the 1 is missing off the beginning of some items?

For example the running shoes mentioned were 150 down to 28 and are now 128 so I reckon someone just got their discounting wrong or the system had a wobble…

They're back on at 90-something instead of 170 now, I think, so I'm not sure what has gone wrong with their hamsters.

TBF I'm a size 12shoe so often end up with bargains - I've recently bought some LaSportiva approach shoes for £44 reduced from £160, some Salomen for £38 reduced from £120ish and some Hanwag boots for £60 reduced from £260. They are usually the last pair left as were these Brooks.

Strangely I got an email from Sigma this morning. I have bought from them before so I'm on their mailing list.

The email highlighted an Assos jersey I bought yeaterday down from £105 to £32. I bought it at £32 yesterday. So, if Sigma are specificially marketing massively discounted items, does that mean the prices folks here got yeaterday are good and the orders will be fulfilled? Anyone else get similar emails?

Anyone got a link? Am i looking at the wrong site? 7mesh Foundation bib shorts are not that cheap here

I think the prices have gone back up due to a suspected error the first time around

Looks to be some mistakes in the pricing, judging by the scale of the discounts and the fact that a lot of them appear to changed to more reasonable looking discounts.

I suspect that for a small number of orders at these mistakenly low prices Sigma may have accepted the loss and shipped anyway, but judging by this thread though they might have a LOT of these especially if it's been pickup by one hotdealsuk or similar sites, and so realistically will probably have to cancel orders that were placed at daft discounts. Lets wait and see.

Their T&C's allow them to do this, as the state that the contract is formed when a dispatch note is emailed, and they also state that they can cancel an order if "any of the goods were listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or an error in the pricing information received by us from our suppliers"

Nothing posted on HDUK. Just here…

I just assumed they were clearing old stock. If my order gets fulfilled, great, if not I’ll not lose any sleep over it.

Sigma occasionally have really good sales - I thought they were clearing old stock too as many of the items were a bit niche or size restricted. But on reflection perhaps their pricing algorithm had an off day. I guess it will all become clear on Monday.

You never know, one of the items I ordered was the only remaining item in that size and a few of the items I liked were collection only so it could just be them clearing off the shelves.

Just had an email from Sigma responding to mine. They were having issues and will be cancelling all items incorrectly priced.

When Garmin cancelled my Instinct I was quite miffed as they were still being sold above cost and they took weeks to let me know it was a mistske.

Retail businesses like Sigma are not great mega corporations like Garmin. They work on paper thin margins in a difficult environment and over the last couple of years its been a nightmare with stock availability and delivery issues so I totally sympathise.

The curse of a PSA…

there are still some decent prices on there. have they sorted the issues out so prices are now correct?

Slightly more annoyingly, the prices on the main sections still seem to be low but when you then view the product the price is up - a Poc helmet is showing at £49, but when you select it to view it, it is showing at £85...
Saying that, the gloves I've ordered still appear to showing the low price so hopefully they'll be sent out.

I checked earlier on everything that purchased yesterday, all have gone up in price, so I suspected that the cancellation of orders would begin.

My order shows as accepted on the sigma sports website, and the two things I ordered are no longer showing as in stock in the size/colour combo. See what happens tomorrow I guess.

Appears that the 7mesh gilet and jersey I bought have increased in price on their website but the Gore tights and Phantom jersey are the same price. No cancelation email as yet but I'd be more than happy if they only honoured the Gore items as they're still cheaper than anywhere I could find them.

Over the last couple of years I've become a bit of a fanboy of their kit (bib tights, bib shorts and two pairs of baggy shorts). Much better quality than previously owned Gore stuff from yesteryear.

I stumbled on some FOX gloves I was looking at - down from £35 to £15 from Sigma - and ordered them before I found this PSA.

Was going to look for other deals but thought it would be cancelled so didn't bother.

Just had a despatch confirmation email!

Order status shows as 'picking' so we'll see but I dont hold out much hope after two recent orders elsewhere were 'dispatched' before being told they didn't have stock of the item that was dispatched!

Likewise. I feel sorry for the poor folks in their order processing team who are having to work out what's valid and what's not, then cancel all of the relevant orders. I'm still living in hope, but ready for a dose of reality.

Just got email confirming order shipped.

Daaaamn!! A Deemax rim for £23 !! When only yesterday I ordered a £60 DTSwiss from CRC for my son's bike.

Thanks! Fox MIPS helmet for £35. Noice.

Order showing as in picking here too. But I think the helmet I ordered was the correct price

The 7mesh gilet on the other hand....👀

Mine says "picking" too. I suspect that doesn't mean much. Sigma would normally have shipped the working day after ordering I think - they've always been quick IME. Although I did order 3 things at roughly normal sale price range alongside the exceptionally cheap bibs.

I have an RM tracking number...

anyone else order any 7 mesh stuff? mines still says picking too - assuming it will get cancelled, could do with it telling me soon as i desperately need some new shorts so will look elsewhere

still picking.

bugger then assume the 7 mesh stuff clearly was a error then!

anyone else order any 7 mesh stuff?

if it is, it would be nice if they got round to cancelling the orders then and issuing a refund...

yep same - as i need the cash back to buy some other shorts

My mate has been in contact with sigma. Although T&C allow them to cancel orders it looks like they will be allowing them through. He has had a dispatch message yesterday (paid for quick delivery). My order is still picking but I am expecting it to land without issue.

ive just been on chat - yep as above they are letting them through no matter what - whether it was intended (to generate alot of income) and take a bit of a hit who knows, but it looks like my orders going through too

just hope the buggers fit now

It would be a good bit of PR if they do let them through.

Yeah it would definitely be some good PR and would certainly make me shop there again in the future more so than I do, in fact if they let it through I'll prob order the BB I need for my trek road bike from them even though I'll prob find it cheaper elsewhere. It'll be sods luck now though that neither item fit!

Mrs BS's order got cancelled in full even though there were some items that weren't suspiciously cheap and could just be considered clearance prices. ah well.

My order says 'packing' now.

I've not heard anything from Sigma either way. Did occur to me that one of the unintended consequences of such a widespread mistake (?) on sale pricing may be people throwing various sizes into their basket, due to Sigma also offering free returns? That could be some return postage bill...

Only one of my items was much cheaper than previous, but I probably wouldn't have taken a punt on the other items I ordered without that little inducement.

We'll see what happens but would be good to hear something today

7 Mesh - yes I ordered a Gryphon (down to £19!) jersey and it is en route according to the traking provided by Sigma.

I didnt hear anyrhing directly, but whem i went into my account i can check the status of my order

Mine also now updated from "picking" to "packing" 😉

Updated to packing here now too.

Order dispatched email just received

Just got an 'order dispatched' email for my £11 Troy Lee helmet, so that's good 👍

Mine's been despatched too. Was fairly convinced that at least some of it would be cancelled.

Dispatched e mail here too, genuinely surprised but pleasantly so.
