my local tackle shop reckons that parcel force treat parcels a bit rough,eg,a pole was delivered with two sections broken into several pieces,the replacement arrived in even more bits!!!!!!!!
masterline sent me a rod by courier two years ago,i checked it before i signed for it,the tip was crushed about 6 inches from the top.the bloke that delivered it said "we`re not really equipped to carry rods,probably one of the heavy parcels in the back slipped and aquashed your rod".well if they are not equipped,then why do they take the parcels in the first place???????????
