i`ve just been talking to my mate jc.
on my recommendation,he ordered a mustad boat rod and reel from a well known scottish mail order company.
they told him that it would be delivered within 7 working days.after 9 days,the tackle eventually turned up.he loaded the reel with line and threaded it through the rings and gave it a gentle pull to test the action of the rod and it snapped!
he contacted the said company and apparently,they don`t want to know.
i`ve posted this thread to warn others about the perils of ordering kit from this company.i haven`t named them,but they had a catalogue in the july issue of sea angler mag and total sea fishing.
i also ordered a rod from them and luckily,it arrived intact.i won`t be ordering any more from them though.i think it`s better to buy locally,even if it`s a bit more expensive,at least you can take any faulty kit back to the shop.
