They quoted me cheaper than on their site when I asked them about a conoflex rod as it was in stock but P&P to the south is 35 though to the north its 15.

When i ordered a conoflex off them, it was 23 pounds to deliver to kerry. it took about 3 weeks but only because i ordered it around christmass and wanted different colour whipping, there was also a delay with the reducer but all in all they did their best and seemed fair.

Dealt with them some time ago, very good ABU prices. From memory they also run a retail tackle shop, and know what they talk about; which is more than be said for the dealer in the multiplier post today.

They're about 40 mile down the road from me. used them a couple of times and they have been really helpful and good prices. (picked up, not posted).

have used them and found them to be great, the rod i ordered was missing the coasters due to a manufactures mistake (all the rods in stock where the same) when i phoned about the missing coasters they sent out new ones the next day. Must say that the service and the low cost of their rods is one of the best in the market today

It was the 14 foot conoflex slr plus I got the 35 pound sterling P&P quote before chrismas so maybe it was the extra length or maybe its hit and miss who you get replying.
