I've ordered the mustad 4 seasons jacket and the bib and brace, anyone have one or know anything about them?
Should have asked this before i ordered i think
Also on another note got the GB3 lite of Tom last week and i think everyone should own one! Brilliant rod and beautifully made by Tom i must add

Mate has a set and he thinks they are great. So much so that he even bought a second set.

If it was ordered on fleabay it's always a good idea to check the reliability of the seller. Here is a useful site for this:

when buying on ebay i generaly only buy from people with a minimum of 500 sales but preferably 1000 and with no less than a 99.6% sales record.
never seen that
http://www.toolhaus.org/ site before, looks handy.
