Hi guys...

Just a quick question to see what your response would've been!

A few days ago I started looking around and finding out prices for the Mitchell Avorunner 7500 reels.

I found them at Gani's for R675. I then phoned XSA and the guy on the phone spoke to the owner and he said they'll match ANY price!!! So what I did was I ordered the reels and arranged to pick them up today!

Yesterday I phoned again to confirm they'll match the price and that the reels have arrived!

When I got to the shop today, the owner thought well of it to up his price and said sorry but the best I can do now is R800! But he didn't come out of his office at all! He sent out someone that works for him with the messages! I then said to the guy that it is really unfair as all was arranged and I just drove 100km's to pick up these reels!

After a while the owner came out and told me that I am crazy as he would never in his life tell someone that he would match the price!

I then said to the guy that I am not happy and I am not paying R800 for them as that was not the quote they gave me!

So he just chased me out the store and told me to go to Gani's, he doesn't need my business!!!

Now that is exactly why I'd never buy anything from that shop again! The owner is arrogant, he lies like hell and doesn't take responibility for his own words!!!

Any thoughts?

Its the second time I have heard of this lowlife tactic used by shop owners. They lure you in, promising you all sorts and once you're there then they nail you. All they care about is getting you into their shop and then you will just pay the ludicris prices because you've come that far... Friend of mine drove all the way from Alberton to a shop in Pretoria, just to have the same happen to him! Its pathetic!!!

That Sucks man, sorry to hear.

Rather support the guys from Ganis and ask them to deliver. The price stays the same you only pay the postage.

still Cheaper than paying for petrol/diesel for 100km...

Hi,

Ja dis die 1 in Zambesi rylaan...

Carpyman, ek moet se as jy ooit weer soontoe gaan praat met Dirk! Hy weet regtig baie van spesie en hy is altyd bereid om te help en doen verskriklik baie moeite! As dit nie vir (daardie) roomyskind eienaar was nie, sou ek weer daar gaan koop het!!

Was ook al by daai eintste xsa in - ook nie n goeie experience daar gehad nie, en het ook nog nooit weer soontoe gegaan nie.

Wat van SA Hengel shop, die ene daar naby Jakaranda sentrum? Is hulle goed?  Western is bietjie wyd uit my pad uit.

Then the tackle shops wonder why the online guys are killing their business?

Personally i hate to go to Henkor because the old man is quite grumpy. But the upside is if i buy online i dont have to see his face!!

www.tackletart.co.za is all you need boys!! If Jonathan doesn't have it he will do his best to get it for you!!

Save yourself the headache boys...:::S
