I can't fault them, ordered a couple of bits Wednesday night and arrived this morning. Nearly always get stuff from them the next day, the longest I have ever waited is two days.
I find their service second to none, and have been really helpful over the phone aswell.

CRC delivery times have dropped I recon, don't tend to use them as much as they aren't as 'next day' as they used to be.

And the whole LBS thing. I have 3 LBS, I needed a new BB for my Hone HTII cranks, first bike shop only had Hope SS ones a £60+ a pop, second had the same but in ceramic at stupid money and so I finally tried the third. £25 quid for the standard deore HTII BB that fits all the shimano range except XTR(IIRC). I paid an extra £10 for being able to drive across town on a saturday and get it there and then.

I think the LBS has cried for too long about online businesses and they need to sort it out and start stocking decent products, have some selection and not just stock Specialized products.*

*contrary to my LBS rant, I did however pop into Bad Ass Bikes the other day and although no means is that a LBS to me, if I am on the Mendips riding I would certainly go there with my business, very nice guy and a good SELECTION of stock.

Pleased with the service I have got them from so far, they have always been pretty quick.

Latest order made was for some bargain 10spd chains made Friday 30th April, at 8.30ish AM. They arrived in the post the next day, Saturday. And on a bank holiday weekend.

They definitely aren't as good as they used to be

In the past 90% of stuff would be with you the next morning - now it's something like 25% with the rest taking 3-4 days
Not something that unduly bothers me but I often chose them because I knew I'd have it the next day
