Maybe if he stopped ripping people off with his prices he'd sell more gear.

Bacarel prices are very good when you consider that the products are not the watered down tat that you get from pretty much every other supplier.
It's also free post, so doesn't matter where you live.

I also thought they were decent price wise along with quality.
Mate & I used to buy the old L0-30 from Seagarden by the pail, was very good, they put us on to Bacarel, he went to meet Seagarden at the Excel Centre, had an incredible product which we looked into but pricey!
So much bitterness when bait is discussed.

Ripping people off? That would involve him lying about his products. Yes he is expensive but ask anyone who actually knows their bait well and they will tell you that his products are high quality.
As for Bacarels prices that is rubbish - they are competitive with other firms and I would trust their quality as they wholesale to other firms.

I don't post on here that often now although I do pop in and read a few times a week and this topic is exactly why. Some daft posts on here based on hearsay and/or personal opinion with zero facts to back them up 
I can only assume some of you are overcome with the fumes from too much bait making judging by the comments

Bacarel's products are top notch as is their pricing, no carp taxes being added there unlike other bait companies who rebottle Bacarel's products, stick a fancy label on, say that billy big balls has caught 100 x 50's on it and charge £15 for £1 worth of bacarels product

Bacarels products are very good, never once I have received anything that I was remotely concerned about. That's why we have used them for so long. I know where all the hydros come from, I know who imports them and I know who sells them pure.......that's why I buy from them when I need to.

I get the feeling it may be to do with anglers/companies using his “vintage” flavours etc thats the bugbear, He has stated he's totally against it and I can see where he's coming from with this regards... if an angler uses a bait with a vintage flavour, it doesn't produce and said angler blames bait it would reflect badly on John and may impede further sales.... If it was me I'd set up a scheme similar to Haiths Robin Red approved supplier list. Make it a payable scheme and with a visible list to all and it should solve any problems.

I guess that's why a lot of people stopped posting in the bait section.

It's identical shrimp but based on trade he's in over 500% mark up. I dread to think what his mark up on the plum / basemixes are
