Sick!! will hit that up for sure. how many new era caps do you have? how far along logan road are you located? not sure where the village is.

[JB]

Post a few pictures of your shop and gear. I'm sure I'm not the only one that's interested in what you have on offer ....

[b j p]

Maybe you can also explain how pissing off the admins of the biggest SEQ basketball forum is a good business practice. Creating a thread in every single forum is not a good start.

[swish]

I Wrote to "Mr Ben" to let him know..

My Apologys... i was just trying to get the word out

[swish]

Got a Few New Era... we have only been opened a week so still getting stock in all the time.. I'm gonna add some pictures real soon


***"The Village" is the new coles shopping complex about 100 metres down from Macca's

[Mr bEn]

Good luck, it's great to hear that someone has come back on board to offer hoop gear in Brisbane. There has been a huge gap since Kerlies went bust ten years ago.

Looking forward to seeing some pictures if you can get them to work.

Looks good man, all the best with the new shop! Definitely echo Ben's sentiments here - It's been a long time since Kerlies went away. I've also copied your photo link into the original post - Hit up Ben, Myself or any of the other admins if you need help sorting out login issues.

Cheers

i'm sure i got some good cards others might be interested in getting their hands on

[swish]

Just got some Hardwood Classic Jeresys in!!! Magic,Malone etc...

[Mr bEn]

Had a look at the shop on the way home tonight. Looks good. I'll swing by in the next few weeks with my mates and grab some gear. Good range of NBA singlets and shorts, plus other stuff like socks, sweatbands, hoodies etc. I reckon you guys would go well stocking up on more New Era caps, people love that stuff it seems. All the best for the future lads, hope you can stick it out.

A great big THANKS to Ben from Swish. He sponsored our 'little' team for Hoops Down Under over the weekend at Beenleigh. We didn't come out champions of the tournament but we certainly looked SWISH. We were the babies of the competition with the youngest players in the team ranging from 13 yrs to 17yrs and because of Bens support we had a 'ball'. We didn't come out too bad in the end even winning a few games one of them was against 1 of the top US team. Jacobs dunks were a crowd pleaser and our parent support was spectator drawing, lol, but we all had a great weekend. Thank you Ben! Thanks Craig our coach and the team...Keenen (13) Jah (16) Snowy (17) Daniel (17) Rohan (15) Roger (13) Grant(15) Brad (13) Cody (13) and George (13). When we have been playing as many years as those other teams we will be a force to contend with too. Watch out for SWISH!!!!!!

Chatting with parents at individuals tonight, one was sold a size 7 ball (Molten GF7) for her U14 son this week, by Swish. She asked the dude if he was sure that U14's used a size 7, (her son plays rep. and was pretty sure it was size 6), but was told by our hero that he coaches an U16 side and knows what he is talking about! When she found out that he was shitting her, she rang up the store, and was told she could get discount off her next purchase - no replacement for the large, round, orange/white paperweight she has just bought! If this is the kind of "expertise" we can expect from Swish, then it deserves a shorter life than the Singapore Slingers!.. Business is business, but if you give a customer the WRONG info, you should correct your mistake! LOSERS!

For someone who's gotten information secondhand you've certainly got your knickers in a twist, of course she'll get a refund....it's law. Were you there when this transaction took place, did you hear the conversation yourself. Sounds like you weren't, and you probably don't even know if it was Ben that did the deal, could have been his hired help. This mom should have researched info herself before spending her money and she should have known this info if her son had been playing reps, you'd think! U14s use 6.... U16s do use size 7. Does he not plan to play next season, my baller son had a size 6 and size 7 ball in rep top 14. Tell her to go see Ben, he'll definitely help her get this misunderstanding corrected. AND dude if you're trying to sabotage this great innovative business for our beloved sport, shame on you.

Not sure where you got your info from but i remember the sale in question. The Customer WAS offered a replacement or discount for the same value and the staff member that made the sale no longer works here...

sorry to hear you have taken such a bad opinion of Swish.. feel free to come on in a say g'day :-)

I think it is wrong for FOOTLOCKER to post something like this

[Boss Playa]

Can someone at Swish take a digi pic of the New Era caps you have available and post it up. I am keen as to buy one, but would like to know what is available before I make the big drive out there.

Anybody know if Swish is still open? Drove past it last week and it was covered up in newspaper, and have heard a few others trying to get in touch with the owners to no avail.

Nah Boss, it's closed down not enough people supported it.

Nah Boss, it's closed down not enough people supported it.

I don't think it was just that they seem to have trouble of getting stock from USA exchange rate cost to much for us to buy I loved going in just to by the B/b T shirts pity we couldn't stock Australian make T shirts about basketball also where the shop was could of been bigger and in a better location for easy parking. Shopping centres Hyper dome or westfield shopping centres would of been better. I loved having a shop to by just basketball stuff can't get it at Rebel or Sports Amart. Very disappointed its gone basketball assoc could of put up free ad to get it out there anything to sport basketball.

[Unregistered]

seems like they could have done a money grab and run.
my old man paid in full for a basketball about a month ago and they said they had to order it in and would contact him within 10 days. he has heard NOTHING!
wondering if anyone else is in the same predicament????
or if anyone would be willing to forward on their contact details as we have been unable to contact them through the details listed on their website!!

[BJ]

I know a few people who have paid in full to this mob and will probably never see anything from it. A shame, as surely the blokes running it knew full well they would be closing shop.

Was great to have a hoops shop open while it lasted - at least somebody gave it a go. In the end though the selection was always minimal at best, and they were always going to be scraping to get by.

If anyone really has paid money & not recieved goods. They can email me

paul@flamecontrol.com.au

with their receipt & I will pass it on as I see the former owners quite often. I never once had to put money down before I recieved goods from there nor would I ever do the same at any other shop.

[Unregistered]

Nah Boss, it's closed down not enough people supported it.

yah im from sydney on holidays in qld and went to the shop and its closed!

not even any info on whats happened to the shop... lucky i didnt buy anything online before they shut!!!

Looked up their ABN 83 129 869 512 online so perhaps you guys who's waiting for products you've paid for can be retrieved through Department of Fair Trading 13 13 04
Monday to Friday 8 am to 6 pm
Saturday 8 am to 4:45 pm (for calls regarding REVS only)
International callers: +61 7 3405 0970 (+10 hours UTC)

Im no lawyer but it sounds illegal for Swish to take money from people without delivering on the goods thats been paid for.

So if you know the owners ask them to kindly honor their word or give the money back to those who ordered from them.

[Unregistered]

For those looking for basketball shoes you can go to Eastbay.com and they deliver to Australia and they are legit.

I've purchased 7 shoes from them already and no trouble at all. Only down thing is it could take up to 2wks to receive the goods.

But hey its cheaper to buy online than here in Australia. I dont actually order online - I order by calling them directly to make the order 0011 1 715 261 9588.

[Unregistered]

Yeah, I ordered some team uniforms and paid 50% deposit 4 weeks ago and was told I'd receive them in 3 weeks.... so when I didn't hear from them, I went to the shop and it was covered up with newspaper. Does anyone know if it's the same guy that owns Dunk?

sounds like a rort job... this pple from swish really took advantaged and took money from pple without delivering on the goods.

they should be reported!

Does anyone know if it's the same guy that owns Dunk?

No, it definitely is not the same person.

There is a end of financial year sale on the 18th to 21st of June that im going to pick up some bargains :)

Btw.. Dunk is a really good service have never had any problems with them in the past, have ordered over 6 sets of jerseys from him now.
