Fire Sale Heating Up

So, as of today we have received all of our bikes back and they are ready to move. We’ve never seen these prices before, and hopefully won’t see them again!

We have put some of the examples of fire sale pricing up on our site (Link to Fire Sale) and hope this gives you an idea as to what kind of crazy savings you can get on bikes and snowboards.

These savings are on all product that was in the store at the time of the fire next door, so this means we have adult bikes starting at $199.99, and snowboards (name brand ones) starting at $99.99! Stupid deals, this product won’t last long!

We have not received our nordic skis, boots, bindings, or snowboard boots or bindings yet, but we expect to see that stuff arriving on Monday. Time will tell, but by mid week we hope to be running on all 12 cylinders!

New Point of Sale System In Place!

Alright, we may be more excited about this than you are – but nevertheless this is cool stuff. Alter Ego Sports is proud to announce that we have officially instituted our new point of sale system, that is going to make our busy bike system run much more efficiently and swiftly.

It allows us to process customers more efficiently and even during peak hours we can process more transactions simultaneously than ever before – this means less time waiting in line! Bringing something in for service? Instead of only having the option to call you, this new system will automatically email you if you provide us with your email address so that you are alerted to your bike’s completion immediately! Cool stuff indeed.

Here is a feature that I think is top-notch. As we work on tweaking our information in the system, we are linking the product in our store with the product listed on our website. Meaning, if we have an item in stock, it will display on our site. Soon enough, if our site displays something as in stock, you will have peace of mind knowing that that designation is correct! Our site is updated every morning, and we may increase that frequency as soon as the linking is complete. Right now we are focusing on cycling products, soon we will tackle paintball products, and then all of the new snow gear will make its way over as the summer winds down.

Last quick feature – want to know everything we have on sale? We now have a quick sale link page that lists everything on sale on our site, including items that aren’t specifically listed in our online catalog. Everything listed in a table format alphabetically with sale prices…check it out here: Alter Ego Stuff on Sale

Of course right now we are still tweaking and learning the system. Give us a few days and we’ll be rocking out with this thing. Can you tell we’re excited!
