Taff Mason Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 i went up this morning, all the staff were very friendly. they've even got two fit blonde birds running the tills!!!!! a man came over to chat to me, i think he was one of the owners or something. about 30 years old with a hair cut WAY too young for him he was asking me what i thought of the new shop and what they could do better. the only problem i found today was that most of the stock did not have any price tags on it. it was a pain in the **** asking for a price check on everything i wanted to buy.

pestbry Posted August 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 i only called in quickly to see wat it was like, no waiting at the door for someone to open the door when u buzz them . Not a great deal in but as the loverly Blonde girl said its only their first day open. I asked how much ely subs were now, i was told £74 first then Shaun comes over saying NOOOOOO they are £80 a 1000 But service was much better today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fallowbuck Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) Went in there today, nothing was labelled and it seemed like an ill organised shambles.I also noticed quite a few of the previous staff were there and guess what ,the attitude was no different! Gary Lamburn get some new ones boy! :blink: Edited August 13, 2008 by fallowbuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 I went down there on Thursday. As mentioned before, a lot of the stuff was not priced or labelled up. No makes on most of the gun sale tickets. Some of the old staff were there and they were polite (as they were when it was Litts) I bought a few bits and pieces just for the sake of it. Going to arrange a trip down to Sportsman Exeter again soon ( An excellent shop) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
