    Buying overseas?

    Does anyone get their gears overseas?

    I tried to make some queries from some online stores. Response from them is poor. Can hardly trust such stores with my card details.

    Yo, I had no idea the image was SO big Actually I saw more than one babe like her in Bali... one was actually on the plane with us during our return flight. You guys should go Sentosa and wait for her to appear there

    Good Nik. I have used Charkbait and Campbells. Both have proved to provide excellent service. In fact when one of the rods I ordered from Campbells came to me broken at the tip, they replaced it no questions asked, although I did without them asking, send them the Fedex report and photos taken at Fedex when I opened the rod tube and after a couple of orders, they stopped charging me shipping.... dunno if that was a mistake on their part but it was nice.... I have not used them for a while though, but I think I will be getting another rod from them very soon.

    Regards,

    Hi,

    Thank you fpr all your response.

    I had asked a number of online stores...going for reels only.Charkbait only accept bank to bank transfer as I am first time customer. Westmarine charges the least for postage by Fedex

    I am still pondering whether to order overseas or not. Even if I add in the postage cost, some reels are cheaper than what the local stores can offer
