I've seen Camelbak biking products lots of places but I've never seen any of their running products in stores.

I think I've seen them at Target. I find it easier to buy things from a store, where you can see the product, touch it, try it on, and such. Stories like this have turned me off to online shopping. http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/archives/2518#comment-24167 Tom Smith Mon, 09 Oct 2006 17:35:11 +0000 http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/archives/2518#comment-24167 Target sells Camelbaks. http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/archives/2518#comment-24102 Funky Dung Mon, 09 Oct 2006 00:51:18 +0000 http://alesrarus.funkydung.com/archives/2518#comment-24102 They have ~85% rating from customers, which is pretty low when you consider that as long as the product arrives on time and undamaged, most people give full marks (thus skewing the ratings upward). Long story short I waited a month for a product that is <em>still</em> on back order (but listed as in stock at Amazon), got fed up and changed my order to an in stock product, and received a product that was neither. It's good enough, though, so I'm cutting my losses and not dealing with them again. still on back order (but listed as in stock at Amazon), got fed up and changed my order to an in stock product, and received a product that was neither.
