whatever happens... i know ill keep my custom with planet, slothball, lips and hpg... none of them have ever done me wrong :) can't see any of them being on the down and out soon :confused:
 
love them or hate them,is this another indication of UK paintball on the down?

classifieds are full of "selling up threads".

stores seem to offer almost daft deals to turn money over.Are they the first of many to go??

Nah, only seems to be those that provide crap service, along with an equally crap attitute and piss poor marketing!

could be wrong of course... but i wouldn't advise buying anything after ive put this post up. if you did take anything to the police, they'd say it was more your own fault that anything else :p

Well this is a little weird and does raise some questions, why were they planning on moving to MK if the company was going down hill? He must have seen it coming, so why the big move? Theres still a lot of stock there and I wonder what he plans to do with it?

Gesh, shame really. I've defended them for a long time as they have given me good service, but it obviously aint enough! Now where to get paintball gear from now!?!

If they have left debt behind then there stock will go to the recievers for them to do with what they see fit, assuming it is paid for as if it isn't it will most likely but returned to his creditors.

I can't believe anyone sees this as a shiock. They have been closed for months, loads of people have complained about how poor/non existant the service has been. So for me (having never even used them) from what I read I would never have used them anyway...

Word of mouth.. the making and breaking of companys like these...

If they owe you money on a card you had better contact your card company and do a "charge back".
I will be doing that.
They've been struggling for some months now...

..I bought some soft ears off them on the 5th of June. Now 12th october, 4 1/2 months :rolleyes:

The staff seemed pretty useless, but can't blame them if they didn't know what was going on.

Phoned them what, 6 times? Every time, they made up a date when the next batch would be coming in. Phoned back when it was meant to be in & miraculously they were never going to come in on that date, they were going to come in the next week, etc :(.

Totally agree... poor customer service makes people reconsider who they buy from.

There are some great online sellers that do their upmost to get products shipped ASAP

The whole gizmos thing is a shame, and when I was looking for a guerilla reg, they were considered. But recent feedback made me reconsider them as a supplier.

In the end I used http://www.ampaintball.co.uk to order my regs... let's not forget the good guys out there!
