The bicycle exceeded my expectations…

The bicycle exceeded my expectations based on the description: it's in excellent condition, clean, and functions well. They even included a large bike chain with the purchase. The delivery service was outstanding, and communication with customer service was both friendly and efficient.

Peace of mind for an overseas buyer…

I bought a bike through Bikefair to use on a three week tour of the old Western Front. I did this from home in Canada, and the Bikefair people made that easy. They even phoned me to clarify details of delivery! The bike was exactly as described, and worked like a champ throughout my travels. Whenever I needed some local knowledge, I contacted Bikefair and they always did what they could to help. Considering there is little likelihood of me being a repeat customer, I thought their support was extraordinary. Buying anything second hand is a crapshoot, but Bikefair comes very close to eliminating potential disappointments, maybe as close as any marketplace can get. They are great people, offering a well-run service, and I would recommend them without hesitation.

Awful experience - Do not recommend

I made a purchase and one week later the seller could not fulfill the delivery (probably didn't have the bike to begin with, or sold it to someone else outside Bikefair).

They swapped the order for a new bike that had very different specs from the original one. I sent them a preferred option via email and support chat but never got a reply.

I should be getting a refund soon at least.

It was my first time using Bikefair and I had a really bad experience. Cannot recommend it.

Hello Ricardo,

Once again, my apologies for the poor experience you've had. While we make it our mission to fix the (unfortunately very common) issues with availability and quality in the pre-loved bike branch, we do not always succeed, and such cases like yours are a big disappointment for ourselves, too.

I have to admit we played our part here as well: we have a new colleague on board working with us just for a couple weeks who didn't follow the internal guidelines correctly and made a couple of mistakes when resolving the first bike's unavailability. We have already discussed this situation together and provided further explanation of how things should work in order to prevent a similar situation from happening again.

As you correctly mentioned, the refund is, of course, on its way to you.

We're very sorry for the inconvenience, should you require any further support, please let us know any time, best via team@bikefair.nl, we will respond with priority.

Yours,

Jan
& the BikeFair team

Highly recommend this company

Highly recommend this company! Great customer service, quick delivery. Ordered a bike on Monday that turned out to already be sold. They promptly called me to apologize and gave me 8 different options to pick from. On Tuesday, they indeed showed up with two of the bikes that I picked and could try out. Ended up picking one and didn't have to pay extra even though this one was more expensive than what I initially ordered. Will definitely order from them again.

Very impressed with the service…

Very impressed with the customer service and the entire process of buying a bike through BikeFair. Very efficient.

The first bike I chose was already sold. Jan from CS got in touch with me and helped me to select another bike. It arrived in a few days, and compared to my first choice, this one looked like NEW. Super happy with how the process was built and my purchase.

Thank you Jan, for helping me!

Great customer support - BikeFair cairs

A Brilliant experience. The bike and accessories arrived in good order, but it was too big.

The seller returned the bike, and sent another choice I had to replace it; which is amazing - only problem is that the new bike can’t have a lock installed.

Customer support have mentioned how they can help, but am completely happy with the bike. And glad that BikeFair cares

BikeFair takes the time and provides good service

BikeFair takes the time and energy to support you finding a good bike, and is willing to support you with any problems and concerns you have. They're also open and honest about what's happening in the process (a rare thing indeed!), as their Customer Service is top-notch. Recommended!

Good place to get your first bikes.

The service is really modern and the user experience is pretty clear and straightforward. I bought two bikes for me and my wife last week and both of them are really nice. I've also really liked the set of educational articles that being sent to you once you've indicated that you've received your bike. They teach you on how to lock the bike properly and just some nice overall tips on owning a bike in general. As a newcomer to Amsterdam I appreciate them.

Not good nor bad

I bought a bike from a "professional" seller, in the description it was written that after payment I would receive photos of the bike, and only after confirmation it would be shipped.

The bike was shipped directly, without confirmation, and for 140 euros I received a bike with completely rusted wheels and wrinkles even on the frame, plus some squeaks.

Obviously, the seller and bikefair do not respond to my messages.

Edit 1
We are working with bikefair team and the seller on a solution.

Edit 2
De seller replaced the rear wheel with a new one, I would have preferred to replace the whole bike or at least both wheels, but was not possible for some reason.
Not good nor bad.

Hi Raffaele,

As just discussed on the phone, we're very sorry you were left behind feeling this way. Apologies specifically for missing your offline message on the support chat, with most of our small team currently on vacation, the response times (especially on the chat) are, unfortunately, longer than usual.

Having been notified of the situation, we are working hard to replace your bike as soon as possible.

You should only get your bikes here

You should only get your bikes from here! Very responsive team and hold sellers accountable. Great details on the listings as well. Delivery is fast. One thing to consider is that the accessories that are recommended may not be the right size for your actual bike. Also while the bikes usually have free delivery, buying an accessory is separate and has its own delivery fee.
