The company refused to deliver within…

The company refused to deliver within the UK because it was paid for from Ireland. It is also worth noting the boorish manner of communication of the staff.

Our terms VERY, VERY clearly state at numerous points throughout the checkout process and at various points on the general site that WE DO NOT ACCEPT ORDERS FROM COUNTRIES THAT WE DO NOT DISPATCH TO, FOR DELIVERY TO OTHER COUNTRIES. This fact is highlighted in big bold red writing and you ticked that you agreed with these terms both when you made an account and again when you placed your order (attempting to avoid the fact that we do not dispatch to Ireland). Having completely ignored our terms throughout the process its no good getting sniffy with us because we politely declined the order you placed in violation of those terms and refunded you. It is not for you to decide that some or all of the Ts and Cs on our Cart do not apply to you and quite frankly to continue with an order when you are repeatedly told that order will not be accepted is rude and just wastes your time and ours.

Fantastic

E-mailed the company about a problem with one of my reels. Had a reply back almost straight away with a detailed and thorough explanation of how to sort the issue. Excellent customer service!

Deserves 6 stars, not just 5!!!

Such a GREAT customer experience is rare enough to be highlighted. This guy lives up to his motto of really helping customers on top of doing the trade : "we are happy to provide honest advice and guidance on any of the products we sell, even if it means you buy elsewhere" Awesome commercial philosophy! And great advice indeed!
He went as far as spotting a technical inconsistency in the reel pieces I had ordered and proactively proposed a replacement.
Good products, decent prices and delivery without any problem.
And it's rare to find a European adrs to source old reels spare parts.
Warmly recommended!
