Made the same mistake as Billabong did, bought crap brands they didn't need.

As a stand alone online retailer they were unreal ,one of the best, I'm sure they will trade out or be picked up by somebody.

I've bought a lot of surfing accessories this winter & nothing has been from surfstitch. They use to be good, but as Mac says, too much sh1tty whatever clothes brands these days. The hardware is all pretty much regular retail. No good deals on...oh damn lol except the 6ft leggie & surf hat I bought from them 5 weeks ago for $25 including delivery which took 4 days. That was awesome. But their sales havn't been as good as past years, I guess this explains why. They became too focussed on clothing lines.

SS have been really awesome for those of us in the never never. Delivered to the door in a couple of days and returns were easy if and when required. Probably hammered the local surf retailers who weren't surf orientated in the slightest way, but they rode the wave of the monopoly for years and didn't do anything for the local crowd, anything but whinge when it came to competing with SS.

Made the same mistake as Billabong did, bought crap brands they didn't need.



The first and worst mistake was buying the over inflated FCS..

I personally found the service from SS amazing. Next day delivery, unless you make the mistake and click sign for delivery, then its over a week..

Hopefully they can sort themselves out soon enough, but as many have said the Surf industry (Clothes also) are struggling..

These days kids are buying different brands, stuff that is crazy priced and basically just Black.. Honestly my son wanted a jumper, basically a black hoodie that was $400 Needless to say he didn't get it.
