Orchard - Use the codes DOUBLEUPPANTS or DOUBLEUPSHOES to recieve an extra 20% off when you buy two or more pairs of shoes or pants!
Kinetic / Nocturnal - CYBERSHOE for 50% off next pair, CYBERDECK for $10 off decks, CYBERGEAR for 20% off apparel
CNCPTS - 35% off the site with code 35OFF, there were a few pairs of 1010s that didn't get the EX40 discount code which expired last night

Only 1 pair unfortunately.

Their Indy 215s are priced very competitively, even better when the 20% discount was valid.

303 is running the 33% off sale for two more days. If you need a winter jacket, bearings, or anything else, buy them now. Swiss 6 come out to ~$40 per set. Swiss Ceramics are about $80.

LBSkate is doing 50% off wheels, but it doesn’t include Spitfire.

Who ordered from blue flowers last week? I emailed them this morning just to get a status update. They email me back in an hour saying my item shipped already (I never got any updates or tracking that it was shipped) fast forward 3 hours later and I just got an email saying that both items in my order were damaged and returned to their shop via UPS. Blue flowers is now refunding me. I emailed them back asking how that happens and why they didn’t update me when it originally shipped? Will, the shop owner? Straight up dodged my questions and asked if I wanted to exchange my medium shirt to a large. LOL this place is hot fucking garbage. I wanted what I ordered bro not your excuses. Will never purchase anything from that place again. Horrible experience. Let’s hope they actually refund me….

Weird, my experience was fine.  I ordered from them on the 31st, got a shipping confirmation on the 1st, got a message saying out for delivery AND a message saying delivered.  Also had a handwritten 'thank you' on the receipt in the package.
 Emails were all sent via shopifyemail, maybe just an issue with their system on your order.

maybe i’m just old (fact), but my reading of this is that you are a little uptight. i’m just going straight into victim blaming mode here. it’s a skateshop. not a fulfillment center with different sectors.
i mean back in my day they (the skateshop) just kinda had what they had. and you were lucky to go in there and not have to get sonned by some snowboarder, bike mechanic.

all i’m blathering on about here is that, to me, it’s understandable that a skateshop got back up after they ran a bunch of sales.

It’s sounds like a normal skate shop.  Which these days have much upped their service game but historically skate shops are run by skateboarders. And most of us arent focused on cooperate level customer service.  Just saying. I’m not sure what the training is like at blue flowers but I’m sure it’s not like it is at Target.  You should stick to shopping at CCS or Daddies.  I’m sure you’ll get your refund so you can buy that size medium elsewhere.

I’ll tell you first hand that Blue Flowers is fucking dope. I hope that you do understand that by UPS damaging those packages, you’re getting your money back while the shop lost inventory therefore lost money… it’s happened to me a couple of times and it’s stressful as fuck, especially when every dollar counts and the ups insurance process is so convoluted to navigate. Sucks you didn’t get your order, but damn take a deep breath.

We’re good on both ends, both of us were professional in the emails yall chill lol just expressing my frustration on the slaps. Regardless I’ll surely get refunded but they did dodge my question and I can assume that either maybe inventory was wrong, or something maybe actually did get damaged, idk. You wait all year for some good deals and bam the whole thing blows up ya know. Guess it was too good to be true.

Look, this should be an important reminder for all of us when it comes to treating others in retail/customer service during holiday seasons. People are (usually) doing their best. Especially our folks in skateshops, so let's ne a little more understanding if there's a refund/stock issue that pops up.

No one is saying you can't vent @sadnocomply but the frustration you shared here on Slap implied you may have carried that same energy over to communicating with them directly. Glad both ends were reasonable if you weren't gnarly with them directly to take care of it. Sucks about damaged goods creating a loss of $ inventory for any of the smaller shops. That shit always bums me out when I hear that

I'll add another positive review for Blue Flowers. I received my sale order no problem.

Also want to shout out Orchard in here. They wound up not actually having one of the items I ordered during the black friday sale, and they took the time to look into it and email me with very favorable (to me) options, instead of just cancelling and refunding. Who says skaters can't be good at customer service?!

I didn’t order from blue flowers over the weekend, but I did a few weeks back. I received everything in a timely manner with a hand written note thanking me for my purchase.

Shit happens. Historically between now and Christmas shipping companies do more volume than the entire rest of the year. Sometimes trucks get overfilled and items get damaged.

I get if it’s Amazon or Best Buy. Go for the throat. Squeeze them for all you can. But these smaller mom and pop stores, cut them some slack.

303 has the tyshawn one in 151 slightly cheaper than the regular silver ones with a 33% discount. Shipping is $5 for packages less than 1lbs I think, if not it's $20, so see what else you can add in without triggering the 1lbs limit.

Sucks they didn't send you a tracking initially but it's not their fault UPS damaged the items and it's not their position to explain how that happened as it's out of their hands. You take a risk of your shit getting damaged by the shipper no matter where you order from, all the seller can do is offer a refund or replacement and I'm glad to see they did that. Could've happened anywhere and it's much more likely during this holiday season.

I had never even heard of them til recently, but I made a couple big orders from BF in the past few weeks when they had a ton of stuff on sale for super cheap, and everything arrived fine

I'm also assuming their name is a Dr.Octagon reference which is  8)

got one of those lil logo glasses they sell because of that
