Harrisons are the ONLY onlineor mail ordertackle shop that I use and have NEVER had a badexperience with them from well over 200 transactions!! If a mistake has been made such as they sent the wrong item, then I have been told to keep the incorrect item and they will send the correct item free of charge, nex day delivery (even Saturday delivery)! Even faulty items have been replaced on a trust basis in that the replacement has been sent before they recieved the other item back.
It is simple to sort things out if you really want something. Harrisons have a FREEPHONE number to call. Takes a few minutes to call, speak to Stewart (the owner), and he will tell you if they have it in stock. If they don't then he will call you back after ordering or finding out availability of the item.
I will point Stewart to this thread, but blaming them for trying to get you a product that has been discontinued by the Manufacturers is rediculous, especially Fox! Fox are the WORST company in the industry for getting products from. From PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, Fox will tell the retailer that the item is in stock, and when it doesn't arrive, the retailer will call them up and ask where it is only to be told it is on the way. What has probably happened is that the order has been placed and Fox have told Harrisons that the item will be sent to them & then turned round and told Harrisons at the last minute that it is now discontinued & their order has been cancelled.
I suffered NINE MONTHS of beingfaffed aroundby Foxwhen I was managing a tackle shop (with a perfect account status with Fox)with an Evolution Bivvy (for myself)when they were FIRST launched, before finally cancelling the order and opening an account with Nash Tackle & recieving a Viper in 3 working days (Nash took a shelter from another order and made sure I got it as they went out of stock literally as soon as the order was submitted, but because it was a new account they did not want to lose it).
