Has anyone had any issues with this shop? I bought a avid weigh sling from there shop on ebay and when it arrived all the stitching was coming away. I have requested a return through ebay but they still havent accepted the return a week later, they dont answer any messages and dont answer the phone. There facebook page has loads of comments on it regarding similar problems ie fauly gear or stuff going missing in the post and you cant get in touch with them to sort it out. Has to be the worst shop ive ever used in 25 years of fishing. Ive had to get ebay to step in to sort it out. Definitely one to avoid.

From a issue I've just had they (any seller) have 8 days to reply from you opening the return/refund, once the 8 days are over PP or Ebay step in (as long as you tell them)
...bloody annoying that....I'll just keep hold of their money for as long as possible springs to mind

If you went in the shop and experienced the indifference and rudeness you would understand

I always try to use johnson ross for everything but they didnt have it. Ive learnt my lesson and will never use danson again. I surprised there still in business with amount of negative feedback ive read on them.

I've never had a problem at Danson, a pretty standard tackle shop with decent stock and straight talking staff. Had an Avid bivvy that fell apart bought from there. They just gave me a brand new one there and then.
Always seems to be the online shoppers who have the issues on these threads. If I'm buying something of any value I make the time to get to the shop.

Thats all well and good if the shop is in your area but no good for me as the nearest decent shop is nearly 100 miles away so its always mail order and im not making a 200 mile round trip for a weigh sling. Just out of interest I sent them a message on how long it would take for a bivvy to arrive if i ordered it today to see if they would reply to that and funnily enough they replied back straight away. They will happily reply when there taking your money but dont want to know when they have it there bank. Just going from this post 5 people have posted negative comments on them in 1 hr, speaks volumes of how **** they are.
One person on there facebook page ordered 3 new delks and a receiver and they only sent the alarms and stuck a note in saying the receiver will follow later when they have them in stock, 3 wks later still no receiver and there not answering his email or calls.

Bought a bivvy off them years ago and they were very helpful, set a couple up in the car park for me so I could compare and decide.
Also bought spod and marker rods off them a few years later by mail order, turned up on time and price was good.
Not ordered anything from them in over a decade though so my review probably isn't a great deal of use
Didn't realise they were still going to be honest.

Are you talking about Danson as they haven't got a car park.

You are confusing it with a tackle shop. There's no car park, you park on the pavement at the front. It's small with limited stock. They advertise everything then get the manufacturer to mail it on. Woe betide you if you enter and expect service while the staff are playing on their computers!

Within the last few weeks they sent me the wrong item. I asked for an exchange and heard nothing Requested a return still nothing so had to ask eBay to refund money. It would have been so simple to sort it out easy with a reply to first message. I just won't use them again.
