After 4 weeks of almost daily phone calls to Triton they have finally decided to cancel my order and refund my credit card as the tyres I wanted are out of stock. It's a good job I called today because they weren't even going to tell me!

Am I just unlucky or is their service always this sh*t?

I brought something through their ebay store and had no problems at all. It was just a charge spoon saddle so nothing major.
Might have just been unlucky pal?

ordered tyres from them and they arrived in a few days - seems like you just got unlucky

It took a week, and a phone call, to get them post the wrong tyres (they did arrive next day, but still wrong). And since then been fobbing me off and not returning my calls.

Got some tyres from them with no problems- fighting the urge to press the button on a salsa spearfish from them at £850

I've had a few things off them and the service has always been great. Always helpful on the phone too, especially the lady there.

+1, discussed sale of my ti Ala Carte with said lady earlier this year. Web order service isn't as quick as Billy's (who also sell Salsa stuff) though. Had a good offer on ti Charge Spoons a few months ago, £35 iirc.

Re. M**k A***ony cycles, they don't 'sell' Salsa any more than they sell cuban cigars, they have no stock and everything's ordered in specially (from Timbuktu by three-legged donkey) a few days/weeks after they take your money.

Got a nice email today apologising for the service and offering a discount in the tyres.

It would be cynical to assume they saw this thread but either way they seem to have come through. Apparently customer service isn't dead.
