I've found Veals (http://www.veals.co.uk) to be very reliable on shipping times. They also carry a good range. Their staff are extremely helpful.
(Might be a touch high on the shipping costs, but I don't mind paying it for their reliability).

My recent experience with Gerry's of Morcombe (http://www.gerrysfishing.com) was that they're less responsive to emails and a bit slower to ship stuff.

On the homefront, Henry's in Ballybough Road, Dublin (http://www.henrystackleshop.com) really went out of his way to help me lately and was very fast to ship. I'm not sure his website is fully populated with all the gear he carries, so if you can't find what you want, might be worth giving him a call.

You also have Viking on the homefront http://www.vikingtackle.ie/ there prices always look to be cheaper than most....compare the wheeleez cart at 165.00 euros to 229.00 euros elsewhere.

Agreed. Should have said, if you can get it locally, so much the better! Always better to support the local dealers if they can get you the gear you need.
