Hi guys,
Does anyone know when Royal is going to be having the Spring Tent Sale? I recall it being last year around Easter weekend.
Thanks!

Those that have gone in the past - is it worth taking the time to go on the first day rather than wait for the weekend? Do things sell out fast? (not interested in the door crashers, those will probably be gone in the morning). Looking for a lid, gloves and maybe some saddlebags.

I was planning to head to the Whitby location since that's the location closest to me (Toronto) but that's probably the situation for a lot of riders. So Guelph/Innisfil a better bet?

Also, the flyer is up on the Royal Distributing facebook page if anyone is interested.

Thanks for the flyer, is that the only one posted? I will most likely make the trek to Guelph in hopes of finding a nice set of pants (jeans).

thanks!

Here are the motorcycle related pages from the flyer. I hope there will be more items than what's in the flyer though.

those saddlebags are a steal even if they are mediocre.

I went last year to the Whitby location. Things do not sell out that fast. It's still worth a trip. They had some good deals last year on lids and shoes. Jackets and riding pants were mediocre. Didn't check out gloves.

Bell Star helmet for $200 is a great deal.

I'm hoping given the weather that they will have some good deals on heated glove liners

I'm curious if the "no tax" part extends to the rest of the store and items not in the tent?

Pretty sure it does.

It does - Picked up a couple of Sena 30Ks last year and paid no tax.

Hmm... I was thinking about some Klim.....

Some great deals out there (Guelph) and not too busy, just left there now with a new jacket and comms.

Does Royal carry the Klim line? I have found they generally carry bargain gear and equipment but rarely anything top end.

Check you sticker prices. I just noticed that their advertised retail price is way above the real price based on their own sticker underneath the red tag which was taped to the box. Red tag claims retail price of 289.99 with 40% off, on sale for 174.88. sticker under tag appear to say original price was 194.00

Now it's no big deal because I wanted this unit and it was still below the original retail price of other retailers/online, but something doesn't sit right with me with this. Or am I just missing something?

GP bikes did the same thing with the comm systems at the bike show in Jan. What they do is use the price from when the unit first came out....not the price of the unit it is today. For example, 3 years ago unit retailed for $499.99, today it retails for $349.99....they will put the discount on the $499 to make it seem like you are getting a better deal.
Pretty shady, but it is what it is....you got it for less than any other online retailers, but didn't necessarily get the "discount" you thought you were getting.

Pretty sure that is also a violation of consumer protection laws.
