Oh well this sucks,

 

I come across a great shop on ebay who are selling the rod ive been looking for at a nice price, they send it out promptly... but FexEx some how manage to bend the transporting tube and part of the rod was snapped in half :(

 

Just when i got my hopes up for some weekend fishing aswell!

 

Oh well, the seller is swapping it for me and hopefully he can get some compensation off Fed Ex!

 

 

Sorry, i just wanted to rant somewhere :P

Black tubes/red cap cost £3 from tackle shops. Surely the sellers could send the rods in one of them, instead of a cardboard tube??

 

That would save the recipient from receiving broken rods and the sellers wouldn't have to look to FedEx for compensation.

 

Yes?....No?

 

I used to buy rods from Trevor Salmon but they always came in thick cardboard tubes that would take some breaking to bugger them. Mine always arrived in perfect nick.

I think they are going to send it in a plastic tube this time, which will be nice as i can use that myself when carrying the rods around :D
