Should they be trusted? All ive heard are bad things. Im thinking of buying a siver cartel turkish and it says they have it in my size and perferred color. (I know siver went out of business)

Any thoughts?

Yo, DO NOT order of Getboards. Chances are they don't have your size, they didn't update the website, and they may ship you the wrong product. The website is terrible and they are anti-customer service. Besides, Siver is no longer a company, so the likelihood of them not having the product is even greater.

People seem to have really awesome or really terrible experiences with them. I personally have only had good experiences. I pre ordered a siver shirt a few years back and I got it a few days before it was even supposed to be shipped. Two of my friends and myself have ordered new skis from them and gotten them no problem.

They take forever on some things. I ordered boots and they haven't shipped the tracking number last time I checked, but I ordered idea and had it in two days.

Considering you are ordering a jacket, you could get some skis. Or maybe a pair of socks. Or maybe nothing. Do not trust.

It's been a couple years since I've ordered from them, but the 5 or 6 times I did worked out fine.  However, given their reputation I'd order from somewhere else if you can find what you want at a similar price.

I've boughten a hoodie off of getboards and it came just finehowever they are definitely ranked very low by the better business bureau, they have problems but I'd give em a shot, especially since the turkish is kinda rare. If you can get it off of tramdock though, do that.

very wise decision. if you call, you should be fine it might take a while to get to you, or might come really quick. ive had both happen...

on another note i ordered the line pinstripe hoodie from untracked the other day and it came in 2 days. very fast.

Yeah I ordered my movie a day before my boots I had the movie in 2 days the boots still aren't here. I won't have snow for another month so I'm not to worried. It is weird how they work though, wonder if it has something to do with the free shipping they give you.

you cant always trust getboards. as long as if you just remember to call them about your order if you dont get an email response then you will be alright.
