Good black Friday deals on gear???

Looking for a new jacket this year. I was really after a noncurrent Klim coat and had one picked out the other day for $280 (Keweenaw edition) until I found out they didn't have my size. Checked numerous other vendors and all the noncurrent stuff in XL and black are pretty much gone. I guess I should have started this process earlier. Anyway, anyone know of any good black friday online deals for Klim or motorfist gear. These are the two brands I have nailed it down to from my research. If there are any other suggestions I'm all ears. I'm slowly replacing my older worn out mid grade gear for high quality stuff. I can stretch another year out of my current jacket if I don't find a great buy. What time of year is the best to get deals on gear? I'd probably do bibs and coat at the same time if I found the right buy.

awesome, Thanks alot guys. I had looked there earlier and overlooked it (things don't pop out as well on a smart phone). Fell asleep on the couch and decided to check Johndee one more time before I headed to bed and saw the comments. Almost talked myself into buying two sets!

I know. All my klim gear would not know how to react. Talk about angst.
I have had great luck with Firstplaceparts in other orders. sign up for the email updates and they send you Thunderstruck 11 or 12 and some coozies and stickers for free. The video is very good.

I have had great service with Sled Solutions with my orders also.
Just wondering? Where is www.Gobigparts.com ? No black friday with them??

with the cash I saved on coat/pants I'm thinking maybe I should purchase a tek vest this year. If anyone sees a great deal let me know. I know last year somebody had them on sale for like $100 bucks at the end of season but I was too late on that one. thanks again

Yeah, I had it in my cart and almost pulled the trigger last night. Thought better of it since I've got a new pair of the bibs sitting in the basement. Great deal!!!

I am too. Good thing I held off on a few other things I was going to pick up for the trailer. Those will have to wait till after Christmas now, course when I was on their site I decided to pick up a pivot adaptor and riser block for the ZL so I'm really 271 light.

Nothing.

Checked my order the other day and it said 2 items were "in process" and there was nothing for the other 2. Just tried to check now and I can't get logged in. Probably just using the wrong log-in info, but still, would think they would have shipped by now.

Was able to get in just now. Three items are shown as "shipped" the jacket hasn't yet, but has a ship date of 12/10/13.

Haven't seen my stuff either. I was gonna call tomorrow but maybe I'll hold off. I'd be more antsy if my sled wasn't in a million pieces and we had snow on the ground.

I called yesterday, the bibs are on backorder. No one, even other wed sites with same deal did not expect to see so many sales. They said a shippment of bibs from Canada should be arriving late Monday or this morning.

Well, when you give away a set of $130+ bibs with the purchase of a coat that's also discounted 25%, what would you expect? LOL!

I ordered a new trophy jacket with the free pair of gloves last Monday..Says it shipped since last wed. Still nothing! I understand that its a crazy time of year for shipping but they need a better tracking method imo.
