    I've also tried to purchase from International websites using my Stan-chart card. Those shops were asking for an address proof (like Driving licence,Passport), to be sent to them thru Fax.

    My problem was that all of those official documents are in my Old address. So all transactions were rejected...

    Did u face similar problems with New enough?

    Could you please help me out?

    Alternatively you can use ICCworld which will save on shipping cost compared to newenough

    • Presently there is no problem with the website.

      Internet Explorer can used to access the site. Firefox may block it as it takes
      a few days for the google cache to get refreshed.

      If there is a problem with IE also, then please mail us and let us know.

      Thanks

          I had a feeling y ou would have enjoyed that

          I am open to other options but I really do want to check the fit of each model myself before placing an order. For example the RJays Urban 44 would be my right size but for the H20 45 would be correct. What did you settle for ? I remember that you were also looking at boots a while back.

          If nothing else works out Ill go with Cramster itself. It is a good product in itself but I was more keen on the shorter length boots.

          @ Cramster.gear.in - Do you guys have plans to come out with riding boots in the near future ? Please let me know if this is the case.

            I had a look at the RJays H2O but was not too happy with the quality of the boots. Will pick up a pair of Sidi's in a month or two (mostly off the net).

              Out of curiosity, have you tried them out yourself ? Im terribly particular about ensuring that the fit is perfect before buying.

                I have used SC credit card in at sites(e.g. Mac Store) which do not have Pay pal. No documents , address proof or such things were asked .

                Hope this helps

                Cheers

                Unfortunately, New enough is not selling Alpinestars SX Knee Guards.

                I've placed an order in Amazon.com. Let's see how this story unfolds.
                They are charging $49 for standard shipping... ; But there was a discount of $14 on the base price...

                Anybody has any experience dealing with Amazon.com, please share.

                    Thanks appreciate it.. i was browsing through newenough.com but unfortunately the jacket i wanted is off the rack.. anyways will settle for scoyco for the time being and then later hit newenough again for joe rocket.

                    BTW. The Vendor (Mr. Bhaviyshya Devgun, Raw Adventures) for Scoyco jackets in Delhi is really nice and knowledgeable person. I am sure his name and no. has come in many times in previous posts.

                    Thanks mate.

                      I was in the same dilemma when I got my Cramster boots. I wanted short length&Cramster had discontinued the shorter version. I tried contacting Smart Designs, Mumbai&luckily they had a few pieces left. So I got what I wanted. Try contacting them to find out whether they still have a few pieces left-its the same thing without the calf slider.

                        I was charged 850/- for it yesterday by AH Helmets and now I found out that they sold it for 400 bucks to another xbhpian 2 months back...

                        This has got me really pissed...
                        Hmm...did you try to bargain @ AH? or did you tell hemant bhai that you are a Xbhpian?

                            he normally gives that to xbhpians at Rs.450/-...others anything above that...so bargain...if he doesnt walk out of the shop...the same you'l get at AA or probikers or lamington road for 400-425...same for any other stuff...

                            many here may say that hemant bhai is a good...helpful guy...may be he is...but remember he is out there to do buisness...he hasnt started a service for xbhp...and no one from xbhp has specifically given his reference....we all are here just to help each other and have suggested such places where biker's stuff is available...

                            P.S. Do not give my reference or even take my name there....you would never get any discounts i have troubled the guy to the core once when he had quoted me Rs.4000/- for stuff which was not even worth Rs.2000/-

                            A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

                              I see you point ninand...

                              @ dinesh, prateek and others

                              I called Hemant bhai... He sorted out the issue for me... He said that the store guys were instructed to charge that much unless the buyer has spoken to him prior to the purchase (which I hadn't)... I guess it was my fault then... He will adjust the amount in my future purchases...

                              I will be deleting my prior posts (not interested in spoiling the guys name)...

                              PS: Prateek, he quoted 450/- for the guards over the phone, but not sure if it was for only knee or knee+elbow set... Give me a call when to you down there, will join you...
