jef Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I've been told that there was a recent advert in one of the mags selling spiral feeders (springs) for £100/100springs. Said person has forgotten and I can't find the ad, anyone else seen it??? Thanks James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jef Posted May 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Eventually found the same ad in a recent Sporting Shooter. It states 95p each on the add but the cheapest he has them is £1.17 when buying 105. His Mk 4 Fenn traps are cheap though at £4.50 when buying 10. Thanks anyway Jef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattymole Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 No problem JEF ; but beware those so called Fenn traps are not original British made Fenn;s ; but cheap chinese cr*p !!! rust like hell ; weak springs and do not close up correctly ! original Fenn;s cost nigh on twice that ! "penny~wise / £ foolish" comes to mind ! trust me ; JEF ; I;m a professional pest controller regards Rattymole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jef Posted May 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Thanks for that. Had 5 from the same guy last year and they have rusted a little, but just weathered. They work anyway, no probs there. Where should I buy the original "fenn" then? I did say I was going to buy less Chinese stuff but it's everywhere! Just looking at a new lawn mower this morning, £300 for the Honda I want or £200 for the Chinese equivelent!!! Jef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattymole Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Hi JEF ; George has a valid point you might pick some at a large game fair !as for the fenn ;s try John Dee Humane Traps :01395~233340 what they charge now I don;t know ? Genuine Fenn traps have A.FENN stamped on the plate well worth remembering. Hi George springers are a good trap ; but not as good as the Fenn , the Fenn has one more coil in the springs than the Springer ; thus making it a slightly stronger trap ! but I;m biased , I have got several Springers in my trapping box :thumbs: hope this has been of some help Rattymole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
