Were you scammed by Glory Cycles?

Hello and good day!

I did a quick search but could not find a relevant thread. I purchased an Ultegra groupset from Glory Cycles in July 2022, and paid $1090 in full. The groupset never came, after many emails and phone calls I learned that this was a very common occurrence. Sounds like Glory Cycles kept taking orders which they would not fulfill, however they would still take our money. Apparently they just took everyone’s money and closed their doors late in 2022. Unfortunately, I found this out too late. Sounds like there are many others in my situation, many of whom lost a lot more.

Just wondering if anyone has had any success in terms of getting at least response from Glory Cycles or Clive De Sousa (apparent owner)?

I imagine you paid with a cc so disputing the charge shouldn’t be a problem.

I think the limit for doing a cc chargeback is normally around 90 days.
