Has anyone bought from fishingsgeargb.com ?

Can see stuff on there that's half the price of anywhere else and wondered if it's legit.

The reels shown are described as SAH branded. This is Tackle Box own ‘Sutton at Hone' branding.

So unless they are selling Tackle Box stock at knockdown prices (Daiwa 20 Tournament Basia 45 SCW QD for £97.99 instead of £382) it's fair to say it's a scam.

Lol sounds like some poor chap has bought his “lady” over from Vietnam and she's started a business from his house (address exists if I check on Zoopla)
Ting Tong off little Britain comes to mind 😂

I reported it here

I've let Tackle Box know their SAH branded kit is being touted on this site. 👍

Not that it matters too much as I'm sure that no one will be buying but can you check individual addresses on Zoopla?
According to RM there's only 2 addresses for CW6 0JS.
Primrose Hill Cottage and Primrose Hill House

As Framey has said, there's some nice properties around there, cheap as well compared to prices around here.
