Anyone Purchased from Depor Village?

Anyone ever purchased from Depor Village in Spain? I need a Rotor BB and wondering about their service and ability to deliver? They look legit, just looking for some verification before purchasing.
https://www.deporvillage.net

Thanks!

First result on the googz - stay away

For just a BB there has to be tons of other, better closer options to get something thatll work with your frame and crank as opposed to risking an overseas purchase from a spotty company

Trustpilot says otherwise on over 700 reviews?

If you can find this BB close to this price I will purchase it, however I don't think you will even come close. https://www.deporvillage.net/rotor-i...mm-red-ceramic

I purchased some clothing from them two years ago. Went smoothly.

It's a legit company and I use them occassionally. Shipping can be a bit slow, even within europe, but everything arrives as it should. Have not had to deal with claims though.

I've ordered a few things in the past without issue. Shipping normally was DHL, or USPS, and items shipped within 3-5 business days.

The only time I had a delay was during early days in COVID, when a saddle was stuck at a distributor warehouse, they communicated this well.

I mean sports in Spanish is "deportes" so it's basically "Spor Village"


I ordered a few things from them a year or two ago, and no issues. Took a bit of time to get to the US (7-10 days), but nothing different from the other Euro shops who use the post office rather than DHL.

Same — ordered a few things in the last year or two, good prices and no issue.

Deporvillage is a solid company. It's one of the largest mail orders in Spain. Their Finisseur clothing brand is pretty good value for money as well.
I routinely order from them, but I'm based in Spain so I can't comment on international shipping and returns.ç
