Hi,

I'm heading to the show next Saturday morning and I'm wondering is there any particular bargins or stands I should head for first. Are there really bargains at the show or (as someone said in another post) just items that shops can not sell?

By the way I see crabrock's website is down, does anyone know if they'll be at the show?

Thanks,
James.

How ya James as a seasoned veteran of said show, It's best to go in do a lap of the place and see who's got what, Sunday evening is usually the best time for the bargains. Sometimes you get alot of the same stuff on different stands but at very different prices, check around if it's a big purchase and haggle!

amazing that they can make it to the angling show but their website has been down for nearly 3 months.

got this off their homepage

Good chance for you to go claim your tackle/refunds!?

#18 Post by **davybrown99** » Sat Feb 16, 2008 1:33 am

why don't you all print that page and throw it at them when you're there. you don't get many chances to have it out with online companies so why not?
