I'm waiting to hear back from Garry at the minute. Got 3 of my reels with him. Sometimes he's slow getting back to people but his work is quality.

btw just to update people, I have been waiting 95 weeks for my 6 week turnaround reels and have had zero comms with Gary since November 2019. In this time I have had people confirm he has taken on work and they have spoken to him. Seems like he is ignoring me for whatever reason, however I am not alone, there is a number of others that are in the same situation as myself, all sent reels around a similar time too.

I have just had a Letter before claim delivered this morning to Gary as it's beyond a joke now and it seems like he's pretty much stolen a number of people's reels. Other's are doing the same with the letter before claim too.

I would advise anyone to avoid using him just in case you get yourselves in the same position a number of his customers are currently.

Surprises me this. I've used Garry a few times over the last 5-6 years and he's been nothing but faultless. Quick, reasonable and the work has been bang on. He serviced and replaced parts on a couple emblem spod reels late last year and he had them back within a week.

Surprised me too mate. I've used him before too. Not happy he's ignoring me yet still taking on work from others. I'm not the only one either.

I saw a couple of guys in the same boat on FB Vik. Calling him a thief and all sorts.

I've spoken to him and there are some very sad circumstances with family health that have led to the recent delays. However sympathetic I am to them, the reels should have been done long before this year started, he's a nice guy but business is business after all.

Are you actually serious,it's some reels for ****sake and business is business.Does that come before family and health.I hope he sends the reels back not done and tells you shove them up your back passage
Are you sure?
