Kudos: finishline.com
A couple of weeks ago I went to a local running store to replace my battered running shoes. I went to the same store at which I had purchased the shoes originally and told them I wanted another pair just like them. Unfortunately, they were out of stock and told me that it would take 2 weeks to get them in.
I went home and googled for the shoes. Ultimately I wound up ordering them at a slight discount off finishline.com. The price was great, ordering process was reasonably straightforward and – best of all – with the free standard shipping, the shoes were delivered to my front door less than 24 hours later. (Granted, I think they have warehouses in eastern Washington, so your mileage may vary if you’re outside of Seattle/Washington state).
I’ve been running in my new shoes for two weeks now, and the local running shop still hasn’t received the backordered shoes. I had a great experience with finishline.com and I highly recommend it!
