Warning stay clear of purchasing any from this company. One of the worst online shopping experiences we have ever had. Sadly it was for my son's Xmas gift. They are extremely rude, condescending & unprofessional. No customer service or accountability. They simply do dishonest business! The way they do business they won't be open long! Trust me, spend your hard earn money elsewhere where you can trust you won't be ripped off!!!! They are a scam read more

Motorcycle Closeouts - Real honest review & opinion - Motorcycle Gear Near Me - Smithville, Missouri

I bought a helmet its been 3 weeks and no update never shipped. Don't waste your time or money.

The worst experience and company, totally disrespectful. They don't respond, and when they do, they're completely rude, with no transparency... I don't recommend it. Sometimes it's worth paying a little more! read more

Made an order almost 2 weeks now and no status update, no returned messages and it's almost Christmas. If I ever get my packages I won't be ordering online from here again. Some customer support would be nice read more

I ordered a pair of boots one size up from what I would ordinarily wear. Wanted to be sure they fit. Boots were still to small. I could not even get them on much less wear them. Motorcycle Closeouts must know there is a sizing problem as others are having the same issue. I returned the boots and they only gave me a partial refund. It cost me $41.50 for return shipping back. Overall Im out almost $65.00 for a pair of boots that I don't even have. Motorcycle Closeouts did not even try to help even after I offered to exchange for 2 sizes up. Buyer beware, if you buy from them don't bother with a return, just give them to the Salvation Army. For me it would have much more satisfaction. read more

I looked everywhere for a particular model of Icon gloves; not only did they have them in stock, I saved half price and got them sooner than expected. Can't wait to shop for a new jacket and pants read more

I have had great luck with these guys. Name brand equipment at a great price!! I always check out their deals before I make a purchase. I try to look ahead with my purchases and do a bit of planning, with planning these guys work. Every purchase has been a hit. read more

I ordered a helmet on October 17th and when I got the helmet I realized I had ordered the wrong size, I was able to return it, and they told me they could send a new helmet a size up. Instead, it has been two months of complete radio silence with them not returning any messages or calls, and have not returned a helmet or my money. Watch out and do not get scammed by them. read more

I won't buy from them again. I returned some pants that came with a torn seam before my. The pants were never tried on and all tags were intact. I asked for a return and they sent me a postage label. Then many weeks later they sent me the pants back, repaired after I told them I just wanted my money back. Then they refused to pay for shipping on the return and stopped answering my emails. Completely unprofessional experience. Also beware of super slow shipping. read more

For me personally, I had a great buying experience from this place. I bought a very expensive motorcycle helmet for a great price. It was shipped quickly and arrived well packaged. I was a bit reserved at first because price seemed too good to be true, but they came through with no issues. I definitely recommend this place for great deals! read more

First, WOW. This is such a deal! Being from California I was really hesitant in purchasing an item from here based on the reviews I read. I don't understand why these "low star" reviews are the way they are. Their policies give you clear information on what will happen if you return or receive a damage package, etc. If you know what you want and know the exact size you are, there shouldn't be an issue with purchasing from this business. I highly recommended anyone to buy more products from them. The quality is great and I'm shocked by the package I recieved. Everything they said that would be in the package, was in there. read more

See all

Buyer BEWARE!! You may not cancel an order once you place it with these guys.. Just remember that. I waited 5 days and found that they still had not shipped anything, so I called to cancel my order. They told me they can't cancel an order. I had to go through my credit card company to reverse the charge. Just make sure that you are OK with waiting an unknown amount of time and also that you can not cancel. (At least that's what they tell you) I would have considered purchasing other things from them in the future but their attitude is unbelievable. Look at the other reviews as well... Also, most likely after I post this, the company will reply with me at fault.. Just be careful as other people are scammed the same. I will be sending an email to Missouri Attorney General to look into as well. Bad bad business. UPDATE AFTER RESPONSE FROM COMPANY. As promised, Micah (owner?) replied with jargon blaming me. That's too bad Mr. Micah that you have to resort to badgering the customers that consider your policies and business practices to be anti-customer. You are ridiculous. read more

Their Rebuttal is laughable. I am a very slim size 8, when I tell clerks at Nordstrom that I am a size 8, they say, "Why?" and bring me a size 4 or 2. So the BS that I wouldn't fit in a size 8 is ridiculous. The item was miss-sized, which is probably why it was acquired by Motorcycle Closeouts. They wouldn't take responsibility for the issue then, and were still in denial when they wrote the rebuttal. I don't do business with companies that don't take responsibility for their screwups and instead, try to cover with lame brain excuses. I'm hoping, with EVERY clothing company now paying postage both ways, that if this company is still charging return postage and a return fee, that whoever reads this will take their business elsewhere. read more

I was a little apprehensive about ordering online here as the prices were good and there are some bad reviews around. However looking at the reviews, people seem to mostly complain about returns The returns policy was really clear before I purchased, so I thought it was worth a try. The store called me because of a mistake I made on the order form, and they were very easy to deal with. The products arrived today, and they're great. Very happy with them and will shop here again for sure. read more

I would like to share my shopping experience at motorcyclecloseout.com. I wanted to purchase a bicycle I did a significant amount of research but when I finally decided which bike and brand to get but I could not find one (this is because COVID-19, offer and demand, supplies, manpower, etc) nowhere...close, far, online or out state. I was about to give up when I found motorcyclecloseout.com site, they really made my day and here is why: - Stephanie from customer service (I called them several times) was very helpful, professional and addressed all my logistic and buying concerns quickly showing me they care. - Their website is well put together, easy to navigate, easy to understand with very competitive pricing (for what I was looking I crossed check prices from all over). - I was lucky enough to have Jeremy assisting me with my purchase; he made it easy for me to get the right bike, he knows his stuff, no BS not pushy no rush no games and honest to the point guidance on what I would really need knowing that this was my very first bike. I drove from out of state to do the transaction (due to manufacturer contract stipulations) and I am very glad I did. The store was big, well distributed, well lighted and things easy to access with plenty of parking, the store and site logo I would say has room to be improve (color, size and design). I will recommend this merchant without hesitation or remorse, good people, good prices, excellent down to earth customer service and sales assistance that made the entire experience one of a kind.

Flawless delivery of my Shoei GT Air 2 helmet. ordered on Sunday July 24th delivered to me by Wednesday July 27 in New York City. Incredible helmet, incredible price. couldn't be happier! exceptional service! read more

This company did an amazing job getting our 2 Shoei Rumpus helmets out quickly and in perfect condition with an amazing savings! We placed the online order on 9-13-20 and received them today on 9-17-20. This has been the fastest ordering experience with any motorcycle company! We are definitely recommending this company to our friends and family :) Thank you for such a great experience! Rick and Erin :) read more

do not buy from them. you will lose your money. i wish i could give 0 stars. **** they are trash ***** they will charge you to return your items. not only charge you the shipping but actual money to be able to return and have part of your money back. read more

I received a 6 year old Arai when I ordered one of the Arai "Honda Goldwing" edition helmets from them. The helmet didn't fit me, so I was going to return it anyhow, but I was shocked at how old it was, knowing the policy from Arai about retiring old helmets. I sent it back on my dime. They said that I removed the DOT sticker and are now sending it back to me. Is this a ploy that they use, so that they don't have to return your item!? Has this happened to anyone else? I am very disappointed. I recommend that you take your business anywhere else. Obviously, I didn't take a sticker off of the helmet and turn around and send it back to them. What a silly angle to keep my money. AVOID THIS PLACE. read more

In a nutshell: Choose an online store that offers free returns and no "re-stocking fees" for sizing exchanges and guarantees price matching! This store offers none of the traditional on-line shopping amenities. I returned an Olympia jacket that did not fit and got hit with the "re-stocking fee" even though I only tried it on once because it was too short. I also had to pay for return shipping. I found another jacket on their website BUT it was priced $80.00 more than other websites offered the same jacket. Their "Price Match" policy is about as good as their return policy. It took many calls and emails to the very obstinate customer service rep. for over a week and a half to get them to change the price on a discontinued jacket. read more

I ordered a new shield for my helmet. i search a lot of sites using the google search engine. I came across this website and out of the sites i searched this company out beat the others by like $10.00. So I decided to buy the shield from there in the dark smoke. The site said would take 7 to 10 days to receive which was acceptable for me. When i checked the tracking i was surprised to see i was going to get the item within 4 days. I received the item and it was a great fit and i love it and super happy i got it early. I am very pleased and will def. search this site first when looking for other motorcycle items. read more

I ordered a helmet, it took over the stated time to arrive, the box inside the shipping box was damaged meaning they sent out a damaged box inside of a non damaged container, then it took three days for them to respond to my email. As a rider of well over 50 years, former motorcycle instructor, etc. if you need gear I would buy from anyone else but never them again. And I won't even go into customer service. read more

I hesitated to purchase from this place, with all the bad Yelp reviews. However, I read them all and it seemed that the problems occurred with people who had to return items, and didn't like their return policy. I wanted a Shoei GT-Air, and since I knew the style and size, and I was pretty certain I wouldn't need to return it, I took a chance. The transaction was straightforward, and I received a "shipping label printed" notice from UPS the next day. I always worry a bit when I get a notice like that, because sometimes there can be a big delay before the box actually moves, but in this case the tracking number updated the next day with progress, and I received my helmet two days later. The helmet was double boxed (good), but there was no packing material between the boxes (bad), and therefore if damage had occurred, UPS would have refused insurance. I deducted one star for this. *edit* The seller contacted me, and I forgot that UPS would only require the extra padding for heavy shipments. Still, I would have liked to have seen some. However, the inner box was in perfect condition, the helmet was brand new with all accessories included (so far as I know), and I am very pleased. It didn't look like a blem or something that had sat on a shelf for ages, it looked like something fresh from the factory. I have an Internet business of my own, so I have some sympathy for the seller. In order to get the prices down low, you can't have a generous return policy and the sort of A+ customer service that other sites provide. They provide those things by charging higher prices! If you know what you want, including the style, size & etc, and there is little risk of you needing to return an item, then go for it. Otherwise, read the return policy and decide if you can live with it. read more

LOVE IT! Awesome Sauce! This is a great place to gear, gadgets, and knowledgeable staff. It is worth the drive to see, touch, and smell all the items you want to buy. read more

Absolutely love this place! I went in to look at new helmets because the one I purchased there before is about 5 years old. Nothing wrong with the shell, never been dropped or anything, but it's just getting older. None of the new ones have the same features as the Bell RS-1 that I have... Long story short, the owner GAVE me the pad inserts to "rebuild" this one. It fits like brand new again. Their customer service after the sale, even if it's been awhile, is second to none! I highly recommend this business. read more

Ordered a tire online from them and was supposed to be free shipping but they emailed a couple days later asking for more money for shipping. When I called customer service the guy was rude and just said I will cancel your order right off the bat. Will never order from them again read more

I checked these reviews prior to ordering as I had never used this company before. At first I was surprised at the negative tilt to the reviews until I realized almost all are from one disgruntled troll. My experience: Excellent. Stated product delivered well ahead of schedule at an awesome discount price. Couldn't be happier. Will buy here again I'm sure. read more

I ordered a FOX Helmet for my daughter from motorcycle closeout. After measuring her head per the instructions on the FOX website I found that the size I was going to need was a "small". I ordered her the Fox helmet and several other pieces of protective gear from Motorcycle Closeouts. 2 weeks later everything did arrive as discribed in one big box. The helmet box was a little beat up but there is a helmet inside and id expect that it should be able to handle anything the mailman throws at it (not big deal I thought). When I tried to put it on my daughters head it would not fit. She never wore it. No one ever wore it. I made a mistake and orderd a youth small instead of an adult small (I didnt realize Fox had small and youth small). I called motorcycle closeouts the same day it arrived to me and they told me I could send it back and they would either charge me a $10 re-stocking fee and return the difference to my card or give me all of my money back as store credit. I still needed a helmet for my daughter so my plan was to return the helmet and use the credit to order my daughter a helmet that would fit her. I placed the helmet back in the box excatly how I had gotten it out. Then I paid $20 to mail the helmet back to Motorcycle Closeout. They put a "return to sender" sticker on the box and sent it back. I called them to ask why and they said they would have someone call me back. No one called me back but I did get an email later that night saying "Regarding your call for RA57652, the return was refused because it was shipped in a condition that will not allow us to sell the helmet to another customer. Our policies state: Helmet Returns: Helmets require special care when shipping. Helmets must be inside their protective bag, shield closed, right-side-up in the manufacturer's box with any and all supplied protective shipping material, including shield protector. The manufacturer's box should then be placed inside a proper shipping box with protective padding, foam peanuts or packing paper to ensure a snug, secure fit. Helmets returned damaged or scuffed will be refused. Return shipping is the responsibility of the customer. Shipping and handling charges are never refunded or credited, unless we shipped the wrong item. Im sure this is a generic message they send to everyone as this dirt bike helmet didnt come with a shield, shield protector, protective padding, foam peanuts or other packing paper..... read more

I am fed up with this company. I tried to buy a helmet which didn't fit and had to pay $30 bucks to send back. Then they lured me into getting store credit so I didn't have to lose more money on stocking fees. Next I bought another helmet, which came with a visor broken out of the box, customer care responses too many days. And they wanted to send me a replacement pin so I could fix the helmet myself. Never doing business with these people again. read more

Great business, on time shipment. Great customer service. Perfect perfect perfect. I dont know why people give this great business negative feedbacks. Amazing prices I have saved $189. We should always support this type of companies so we can have great priced products. read more

This company is fine to buy from as long as you don't have to return/exchange anything. Doesnt fit? Enjoy paying for shipping 3 times. And you better report that it doesn't fit in the first 48 hours or you are screwed. Returns you will be out the return shipping, and they assess a fee of 10%. In my case I ordered a pair of boots. I wore them for the first time 3 days after I received them. The fit was fine, but after returning from a quick 20 minute ride i noticed the zipper was tearing away from the seam. It was probably there all along but I didn't notice it. Since it was Sunday I waited to contact them until the following day. I submitted a return authorization request which they promptly denied, stating the boots were used and could not be returned. Yes, they sent me a defective pair of boots and refused to take them back at all (Return or exchange) even though a total of 4 days had passed since I received them. They did offer to open up a warranty claim with the manufacturer if I would send a photo of the defect, which I did. The manufacturer would then either replace, repair them, or deny the claim at their discretion. The manufacturer is in europe, so I'm basically stuck without boots until they reply (weeks I'm sure) so I'll just have to buy new boots in the meantime if I want to ride safely. The bottom line is they sold me a defective pair of boots and left me holding the ball as it were. I would fully understand if it were months or even weeks after I received them, but 4 days? I can not recommend this company. read more

Worst return policy I have ever seen Most other websites have free returns at this point. Never buy from Motorcyclecloseouts unless you like to pay return shipping and get charged $10 for a return. read more

I'm not one to write negative reviews, but I'd like to share my frustrating experience with this company. I ordered over $300 worth of stuff on Sunday night at 10:30pm (Hawaii time) which cost me $30 in shipping because I live in Hawaii. I then called on Monday morning at 9:30am (Hawaii time) to add over $100 worth of gear to my order, but was told they couldn't add the merchandise to my Sunday night order because it was already in the "shipping department". So, because the gear is for father's day, I ended up ordering the extra gear, which cost me another $30 in shipping alone... Now, FOUR days later and I JUST received a shipping confirmation from USPS that my Sunday night order has finally shipped. I just called again to get clarification on why I had to pay $60 in shipping if my order didn't ship until just now... The lady I spoke with was rude and unsympathetic. And in talking with her, she told me that the item wont show up for 1-2 weeks (defeating my father's day gift, but whatever), and that my Monday morning order wont ship till sometime next week! I tried to cancel the order, but because its in the "shipping department" they "cant". So frustrated! Between the ridiculous shipping costs, the length of shipping time, the unwillingness to help bundle my orders, the delayed shipping dates and the rude customer service, I will never shop with MC again. Very frustrated, and all it would have taken to make my experience positive is to refund me $30 for 2nd shipping charge - problem solved. read more

AJ was very rude when trying to return/exchange an item. They charge $10 and shipping to return the item and shipping to repurchase the item. The helmet was a medium and my gf needed a small. She wears a medium in 3 other helmets she wears. AJ talked down to me and was very saecastic. read more

STAY AWAY!!! this is the most unprofessional online store ever. I've been riding for 21 years and bought thousand of dollars in motorcycle gear and I never had such a bad experience. I ordered an AGV helmet size L. All my helmets are L including 2 AGV I had in the past. This particular model fits small so the L wont fit me. I contacted the customer service to exchange for an XL but they say it's out of stock for the next 5 weeks, so I asked for refund and they said for refund they charge 10% fee. I tried to explain that I just wanted the right size and they could not provide me, they didn't care either I wait 5 weeks or loose 10%. Do yourself a favor and buy from better stores such as Revzilla and Motorcycle Superstore read more

I too had a negative experience with this company. If you do choose to buy from them, make doubley sure that you want the item so you won't have to return it and that you are in no hurry to recieve it. I purchased three pair of pants as gifts. My order took so long that I had to buy the pants in a store elsewhere as the event was long over by the time I received their package. When I went to return the pants, I asked that they waive the restocking fee and that they pay to have it shipped back as the shipping took so long I couldn't use the items shipped. Not only did they refuse to do either, but proceeded to tell me that my package arrived within their time frame when it wasn't even close. So, not only did they show poor customer service, they felt the need to go into an argument about timing. I have never heard of an online company charging a restocking fee and most will pay for the return shipping, especially if the problem was on their end. Not these guys. By the time it's all said and done I am looking at close to $40 to return an item. Not okay in my book. You can be sure that I won't be doing business with them anytime ever. read more

My experience with Motorcycle Closeouts was fantastic. Bought a $670 helmet for $325. It showed up within a week of ordering and packaged perfectly. When I ordered it I was advised that the helmet was being transferred to their facility and that expedited shipping timelines would not apply. I appreciated the heads up. All literature etc was present and the helmet undamaged. It was clearly never opened and repackaged. The manufacture date was within spec and I'll get my 5 years out of this lid. Oddly enough I can't say the same for the last helmet I ordered from a popular and "reputable" internet vendor. Needless to say I will purchase from Motorcycle Closeouts again. I couldn't be more pleased with the transaction. read more

Some good sale items and a good spot to get last years styles. Be careful of the return policy though a lot of details. Items must be in a box no envelopes or other packaging must have return number on box signature required shipping etc etc. The 7.95 item I returned which said it was meant for all 4 strikes was not the case so I had to spend $6 just to ship it back. I get store credit and will have to pay shipping for the next item..... read more

A truly terrible business to order from just read the reviews , the worst customer service you can imagine.Avoid at all costs , there are much better businesses to get motorcycle gear from.sorry you can't give less than 1 star. read more

This is the place to go for motorcycle gear at the best price. They always have sales and clearance items, so I never know what I'll find when I go up to Smithville. The staff, especially Keith, are very knowledgeable and helpful so any questions are quickly answered. Also, they match online competitor prices, so bring in the online print-off of ads and ask them about price matching. I've bought a helmet and jacket from them in the past and am very happy about quality and performance. read more
