Best Online Hockey Site

Recommended Posts

The Hockey Shop is a joke but since its the only hockey shop in my area sometimes I go their. Everyone I know raves about it since it does have a good selection but I don't find the prices that amazing

They're typical CDN prices. I always try to buy my gear in the States, especially in NH, because not only save the tax, even with the exchange, and duty (if nesecary) still comes out to saving a few dollars.

1800 faceoff is located in NH. i bought a pair of xxs there, wicked cheap, arrived in 2 days

Regarding www.hockeyskates.ca - their high end products are priced well. I paid $15 for courier shipping. Also they replied back quick and searched for a product they didn't have listed and got it shipped from Bauer to me within a week.

Epuck and cyclone taylor are the two best I've dealt with. Worst so far is hockey monkey. They had to recall my order and then screwed it up.

Epuck by far has the best customer service and a fairly good selection.

Inlinewarehouse is good. Hockeygiant and Hockeymonkey has the best deals, but poor customer service.

Both Ice/Inline Warehouse and Epuck are great. Hockeygiant is also, but only if you picking up stuff off from the sale/clearance.

Anyone deal with Kemps hockey or www.kempshockey.com before?

I used Kemps once to buy hockey socks for my team. Had no problems with the service.

I've used EPuck several times for various things, they're always a good time. I think they might be the most complete in terms of information on their products - they review each one themselves. Their service is excellent too.

I used Hockey Monkey once, and never went back after they sent me ice skates with a rusted blade (I got the runner replaced at my LHS). They don't have a great reputation, but sometimes they do have great prices.

I've never had a problem with hockeymonkey and they have great prices with a large selection.

My only issues are:

1) When they call because they don't have an item in stock(2 out of 3 orders) the girl(s) can be short and annoying.

2) I bought a pair of skates and the blades on each were loose, no biggie because I checked but still.

EPuck is amazing! Great reviews, amazing customer service, cheap and fast shipping.

Cyclone taylor was good to deal with, but waiting a month for my order to come in was pretty crappy(no backorder, just really slooow shipping).

I like epuck, I think they have a great site and great service. I ordered from icewarehouse one time on monday and got it the next day, probably because I live in California. I only go to the retail locations for hockeymonkey and hockeygiant because they're shipping charges are pretty expensive.

I've ordered stuff from Kempshockey.com. Shipping time was normal for UPS Ground. Had to ship something back too, and they processed the return/refund pretty quickly.

I've also been to their shop in Latham, NY. Pretty good guys in there.

I would certainly suggest them.

adding to my previous posts:

I ordered a fury bag, some tape and a pair of socks(vintage pittsburg) from eastwesthockey.com

I didn't see that they were backorder-ed when I added it to my cart... Well I got a call a couple days later(a saturday), the lady asked me if I was aware that the bag was backordered, obviously I was not. She agreed to call me back with the exact date that they were going to receive the shipment so I can make my decision about the order. Well come that Monday I got a call from the same lady, she told me that they happened to find a box with some fury bags in it. She asked if it was ok to ship it out to me later that day, of course I gladly said yes. She made sure my order was correct and shipped me a tracking number. Order was shipped via fedex, shipped on monday I recieved it on saturday(I wasn't charged any extra for saturday delivery). It's hard to find a company that matches epuck as far as customer service goes, well eastwesthockey goes right up there on my list.

P.S. The bag is a tank! I don't think I'll need to buy another bag for a looong time. Also the tape they offer is much better than renfrew and a bit cheaper.

Personally the only think I've ever order was a Swedish Stickhandling ball off Epuck. I ordered it well over a month ago and I'm still waiting on it. When I phone them to check the order I can't get a hold of them so I'm definitly not very impressed considering they gurenteed it in 3 weeks or less.

Sounds like you may have just ordered something that they didn't have in stock. They have always been great for me. Just about everything I order ships the same day. And they don't bs me about the shipping. I live in the same "shipping region" so many times GROUND shipping will arrive the same day or just one day later as OVERNIGHT. So that saves me some $$$.

I also like the product review section

I had a bad experience with them on some referee stuff I ordered a couple of years ago. Their prices were decent, but I was disappointed with the customer service I received when the order showed up incorrectly.

In Canada I have had great success with hockeyskates.ca - cheap shipping, pretty much $15 on any order I have had. As well they are great at replying to emails and finding what I need.

Oh and to add more to my post(s), a few days ago(before my last post in this thread) I got a pm from jason@ewh asking if I recieved the bag and liked it. He also was quick to answer a question I had about a product and advised me to not buy aforementioned product.

epuck's always been good to me: excellent customer service and fast s&h. I remember ordering some equipment for a league several years ago with express shipping. Since it was obvious I wanted the stuff quickly, epuck actually called me up within a few hours with some follow-up questions to make sure everything was handled properly (and saved me some shipping costs, too, based on their stock situation).

The product reviews at epuck are also a definite plus.

Hockey.com

Cheap shipping and reliable.

I second. Just tried them over the weekend. I ordered a shell for my girdle on Thursday and received it Saturday. Between EWH, EPuck, Ice Warehouse and now Hockey.com, I feel comfortable with my options. I will not consider any other vendor online outside of an outstanding Hockey Giant clearance item.

I've known Kevin at ePuck for quite a few years. They are tops in my opinion. I've had to return a couple of items over the years and they have never given me any hassle about it. Kemps Hockey is also very good, and if ePuck doesn't have it then I go to Kemps.

another good thing about epuck is that they are located in Louisiana, so shipping is lightning fast to the southeast :D

A couple months ago I ordered a pair of elbow pads from Epuck. A week or two later they called me to ask how I liked them and if everything was OK with my order.

hockey1.com is great. besides the prices being a tad more, the service is excellent, the shipping is fast as hell, and they have so much in stock. I wish I lived near it :(
