clueless1 Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) This may be a really stupidquestion; is it possible to order 12g cartridges on line and pay by cad/paypal etc.? (without having to phone) If so are there any recommendations. Cheers, fraser Edited October 2, 2009 by clueless1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuey Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I'm not sure why anyone buys cartridges online. I have always found my ocal shop to be cheaper than the online price and thats befor the delivery has been added on, making the online price even higher. What do others find?

Cranfield Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I buy from Just Cartridges and had 2000 delivered on Tuesday this week, after phoning on Monday morning. I bought 2000 Gamebore White Gold XLR, 12ga, 24gm, 7.5. The cost me £141.75 per 1000 + £27.50 delivery (£15 for the first 1000 + £12.50 for the next 1000) My nearest Gunshop charges £140 per 1000 for the same cartridges and its an 80+ mile round trip. Thats why I buy from Just Cartridges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I'd much rather support my local shop. Unless there was some specific load he couldn't get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SXPhil Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 My local gunshop is between home and the Office but if I had a long trip to a Gun Shop then I guess postal would be an option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utectok Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 before my rfd went mail order only they said that carts were a waste of time and they would be lucky if they made £10 on a 1000 so the idea of supporting ur local gunship doesn't seen to hold up.

Dangerzone Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 My local gunshop have never got what I want!!! Even when you ask for a 1000 of whatever the next time he orders, he still dosent bother to help..........thats why I buy from justcartridges.

Most of them stock cartridges not to make lots of money on them but to get you in the shop and buy something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter De La Mare Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) Just Cartridges are £10 per thousand more expensive than my RFD, and they're a 20 min drive away, I go there a few times a year and buy a couple of thousand each time at least. Was there last week to buy 3k before the price rises take effect. Makes the transaction £70 cheaper than online. Well worth a few quid in fuel.

fuzrat Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Give Pete a try at ClayshootingRus cheaper than just carts and does mail order too £16 per thou I believe example hull pro1 £165/thou, just carts pro1 £182/thou (prices are off current websites and Pete may not have put in the dreaded price increase yet) lucky for me hes not far up the road Fuzrat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkfooty Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 For some wildfowling cartridges, mail order is really the only economical option unless you live within 100 miles of a stockist. For example, Forseys in Kent is the only place I can get the Express Hevi-shot cartridges I use for geese at a reasonable price, and an 800 mile round trip would be out of the question. About 3 years' supply cost me £150 including postage. My local (40 mile round trip) shop quoted £220 and a 4 week wait for the same quantity. But for clay or game cartridges, where you might be buying in thousands, then any reasonably local cartridge cash and carry is probably the best bet. My nearest is in Edinburgh but, more locally, the agricultural merchants tend to beat the gunshops on price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
