There's a few items I need which are only available on the continent. Can anyone suggest shops they have ordered with abroad that I could use with confidence please?

I understand with the new laws I may get stung on postage etc but I can only get these bits abroad. Names of shops / suggestions appreciated.

I've also ordered from the Fishdeal website and yes good prices BUT BEWARE if you have a problem with the product sending goods all the way back to the Netherlands is expensive that can soon add to your stress levels!

Hi Matt

"There's a few items I need which are only available on the continent"

It might help if you let us know what the items are

How long did your delivery take from fishdeal? I'm not in a hurry and expected delays but just after an idea of how long it might take. Thanks.

Carter I ordered a product on 19th December and it landed on 12th January so BEWARE anything needed for the next week or two might not turn up in time. The prices are good and I found Customer Services responses timely BUT having to potentially send items back to the Netherlands if you have problems is not something I'll risk again, just my thoughts...!

It took 8 days.
That was during the heavy snow in the east so probably as good as I could hope for.

Thanks both. I ordered 15 days ago and according to Parcelforce track and trace it has not yet arrived in the UK. Hopefully only be a few more weeks but who knows

Good customer service from them doesn't surprised me at all.
Over the years I've had a lot of dealings with the Dutch and always found them very efficient, the things they make and supply good quality but at a keen price.
More than I can say for the over rated Germans unfortunately.
Sending anything back to anywhere will always be hassle unless it's screw-fix of course.

I would definitely call or email them, sounds like it's gone astray.

Hi Matt

I used

Mikbaits.cz
And nikl.cz
For hook baits when I was out there. They do ship to the UK and have some very good cold weather options in their spice ranges.
You'll need to use Google translate to navigate the web pages though

Was it Forgotten Flavours? They have been having problems sending items to the UK. I'd imagine that if they are, then others will be too. However, there are other companies able to do it.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
