best online skateshops?

Posted: 2007-10-29 11:43:30

I thought it might be fun to kick off the forum debates with a big of opinion. What do you think the "best" online skate shops are today? What makes these skate shops better than others?

There's a few different sites out there, but some have features that others simply do not touch... Aggressivemall.com, for instance, has been huge on the customizing skate front by providing Valo skates not available anywhere else and allowing you do get your skates in just about any color you want.

Then there's rollerwarehouse.com which has been around for a long time and now touts a blog to keep its clients up-to-date...

Then there skatepile and inline warehouse and i'm sure an array of others...

Where do you shop? How many of you use ebay or just google/froogle for the lowest prices when shopping for some specific skate? How many of you are dedicated to just one shop?

  It really depends on the country. Within the US, Revolution and Aggressivemall are the best places to order from. Revolution has great service and always gets the pre-orders first on new products but they lack a bunch of parts that A-Mall has. Ignition is for customers outside the US. Those dudes have lots of special offers and clearances.

    Those are all really good points. I've also noticed that several times when I'm looking to get new shirts and skate parts I end up finding things in stock at one store, but not everything I was originally looking for... Sometimes I have to decide on getting some other brand or something just to get everything I need.

    i use revolution the rest the shops cant deliver to apo ap addresses and being in the army its nice that they usually get the stuff to me in a few days now and then they take a lil longer if its on backorder but its usually worth the wait

      I wonder why other shops can't ship to APO. How much more is shipping vs to a normal address?

        its cheaper than international becuz it goes to some place in california and from there it goes thru military mail service atleast thats what ive heard i think i average about 20 bucks or so for shipping just the regular usps mail i dunno y they wont do it but at times it does suck but revolution has been great they send free stickers and other stuff all the time granted i usually order about 3 or 400 bucks worth of stuff at a time but free is free

What is Rollerhome All About?

We love rollerblading and like many of you, we live on the web. There are a lot of places where rollerblading and the web mix, but over the years we realized something was missing. Most of the websites are just blogs with a forum, which is fine if that's all you want, but there's so much more that can be done.

Rollerhome was designed to give you everything you could ask for in a rollerblading community. We've been doing this stuff since before Google registered google.com. Yeah, that long. We've seen what works and what doesn't, what people want and what they don't want.

We want this to be your site, your home online. If you have any suggestions on how we can make it better, please let us know in the forums.
