They are advertising quite heavily with an impressive looking brochure in FF&FT magazine.

Question to the forum is:- Has the leopard changed its spots?

Or are they still a nightmare to deal with?

If you want reliable service, Grommit on here, or Sportfish.

GAC burned their bridges with me a long time ago...

The first time I used GAC 5 or so years ago half the order was late, I am still waiting for the rest

I gave them another chance last year as again they had an offer that seemed to good to miss. And I must say their service seems to have gone down hill

Second vote for Grommit also recentley got a great deal and great service on a pair of over trousers from Andy (ANDY345) at http://www.flytastic.co.uk/

Must also say Grommit has done me a good turn and is totally 100% reliable.

I recommend the M8 rather than their arthritic and haphazard mail service. Walking would be quicker!

No problem, just take a punt over to the shop! Or post the vouchers to me?

I've never used their website, and never will judging by the reviews on here. Don't mind going into the shop though, the guys are pretty helpful and sometimes you can get really good deals.
