Black Sheep Greetings from the Black Sheep

The fact that our homepage or online shop does not work properly is what brought me here... Maybe a good sign.....
I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for this inconvenience.... We are currently better at manufacturing vehicle accessories than in the design of homepages... especially with such a vehicle, which has caused so many emotions in us, we can't refrain from implementing more and more ideas... Currently we have the problem in our online shop that the bulky goods with wrong shipping costs are shown... so please don't hesitate to write to us before you invest all your money in fictitious shipping costs...
I try to contribute as much as possible to the forum and share my opinions and experiences.
Please don't blame me if I can't be online every day, but work and my silly dog take up a lot of my time...

Greeting from Switzerland

I sent them an email before ordering asking about current shipping times and customs and haven't received a reply. I suspect they may be a small operation.

Wait times for ordered accessories. I had ordered several items from Black Sheep in December and I received the rock sliders two weeks ago, The other items, including the steps, have not been shipped. I left a message with them for a response but I have not heard back. Has anyone gotten a similar lack of response or experienced similar delays in shipment? Thank you.

My experience wi the Blacksheep has been amazing.
I was prepping for the 2024 Alcan Winter Rally (Feb 2024) and urgently (less than 2 weeks till the rally start) needed the external NATO Jerry can holder and universal mounting system.

These guys came through big time!!

In 23 days, I put 12,768 miles on my Grenadier with their external system in place. Not a single rattle, no issues in -25F to -41F.

There gear is the best, in my opinion, based upon my experience in extreme conditions for an extended period of time!!

You won’t be disappointed!

How much is the offset wheel carrier? I can't find it on the website.

Many thanks for the rear door MOLLE panels fitted by me today for my 2 door utility wagon. As well as the MOLLE storage, in my opinion they provide a visual deterrent for anyone trying to gain entry via breaking the back door windows. Great ventilation when windows open and very little effect on visibility over the shoulder at junctions. Thank you, Chris

 

[Gwynne]

Perfect - be sure to let me know.

It almost seems like you can read minds...
Give us another 2-3 weeks and we can introduce something really hot.

Any update on the side steps for Ineos rock sliders? Still very keen to learn more and can’t see anything on the website yet

 

[ADVAW8S]

Looks like rough road equipment out of Nevada will be the US Distributor for Black Sheep. They hosted the black sheep grenadier at Overland Expo West

 

[ADVAW8S]

Well Black Sheep has introduced new product for the QM. Looks like rock sliders are done. Plus they developed a pivoting camper body for the back. More of a living room than a sleeping unit.

I noticed on various media that there are some comments that the Black Sheep Quartermaster is a bit overdone.
As a comparison this is a fairly common type of vehicle in Australia, although this is very high end.
I could guarantee the price started with a high 2 and probably getting close to $300K
This will be the typical competition for the Quartermaster Cab CHassis in Australia

I agree but I feel like this show is all show. Kinda like the SEMA event here in the states.

Thomas, just a quick note to say thank you to Tom Rogerson Black Sheep Innovations Australia, (Oceanicshade) in dealing with enquires on the roof carrier.

 

[Gibby]

Black Sheep manufactures excellent products BUT they do not deliver.
I ordered the following items on 12/4/24 which were delivered, in part, on May 18th.

Rock Sliders-received.
LED Light Bar-received.
Interior Molle for rear side windows-received.
Side Carrier MOLLE system-received.
MAXTRAX LITE holder-received WITHOUT NECESSARY PARTS.
Side Carrier for canisters-received.
On 4/2/24 I ordered Rockslider Steps #10365. To date I have not received them even though their website says the order status is "Shipped, Paid and Done".
Having emailed them more than once for updates, I have not gotten a response, so it looks like I am out of luck having this order properly filled.
Has anyone had similar problems with Black Sheep? What was the magic formulae to get satisfaction?
If anyone has suggestions on how I should proceed, please feel free to chime in.

Thank you

I suggest, call them. They are a small company and probably overwhelmed by all sorts of demands by mail.

 

[Gibby]

Thank you, Voader,

I want to update everyone on the response to my emails and phone calls to Black Sheep regarding my December order.
The side steps finally arrived. The steps were not showing on my bill of lading and Black Sheep thought it was included in the rock slider shipment.
Once they realized they were not included, they shipped them immediately so all is good.
The Maxtrax carrier did not include a few parts because I did not realize I was supposed to order them separately.
Once Black Sheep saw the discrepancy in my order, they moved quickly to rectify my situation.
If you have questions regarding any order you may have with them, I suggest you call them to clarify your questions.
Calling is much better than an email if you need a quick response.
I am very pleased with the items I have received from Black Sheep.

Thank you, Black Sheep!

I love their products, but their web site does not permit entering United States for the country. Trying to order, but cannot get past the part where you put in currency and country.

 

[Gibby]

I had similar issues. Make sure you are on the USA site by looking in the upper right hand corner of the home page. A US flag should be the icon you click on, I think. Make sure you are given prices in US Dollars in order to have the VAT removed from your prices.

 

[Phred]

Yeah, no worky…

Even if you select English, you have to go to the “online shop” which then asks for currency and country, of which United States is not a selection.

That's because Black Sheep Innovations is in the process of transitioning its U.S. order process to Rough Road Equipment and the good news is that it is already in place! Just go here: Rough Road Equipment Grenadier Collection. Thanks @ADVAW8S for the heads up on this U.S. Distributor!

I had been holding off on placing an order until this transition is complete and just now placed a pre-order for four interior molle window panels. They are expected to ship between August 1 and August 15, (no charge on my card until August 1), which tells me Black Sheep has sent a boatload of gear to Rough Road Equipment for sale.

Here's the really great news - shipping for four molle window panels from Rough Road in Nevada to me in Birmingham? $17.80.
