Title: Online stockist buying!
Post by: peplow on October 19, 2010, 10:33:48 PM
Guys i am doing an online stockist order soon and wondered if anyone had anything they wanted to get and share postage, especially as i know some people are hesitent to do it themselves from foreign websites!

I am going to be picky and only deal with people i know are trustworthy, may seem harsh but its what i feel comfortable with!

The items can then be shipped to them from me!

I will say though that if i (we) get stung at customs then it will have to be shared out at the % of the price payed by each person. For example if i pay £20 and someone else pays £10 and we get stung £15 then i pay £10 they pay £5 as i paid twice as much to begin with, and vice versa if the other person paid more.

cheers

Sam

I contacted onlinestocks because I am going to India very soon, and wanted to go and buy a few things from him. he said he doesnt have a shop and that it wouldnt be possible to visit and pick things out. I then asked him if he could post to an address, not far from his in India. I never got a response.

I'm not having  go or anything, just want to share my experience with other forum members

Yeah many have had positive experiences i think. I have bought a pair of pads in the past and they have been great, he usually replies quickly to my emails..

My problem with them is that the gloves are always too small - but they are very efficient - out of interest has anyone every used the pads other than the Kookaburra ones? Are they as good quality as the ones targeted for the UK market?

The bats usually look nice, no idea about their performance in a match though.
