i came accross this site called...www.freefisher.com ... has anybody used it before....

Just had a look there and it says all stock is produced in their own plant so unlikely to be the genuine branded product if that matters. Also all stock ships from China so you may have to pay duty etc on it . Also the spelling is dodgy and only two hotmail adresses listed for aftersales. I'd leave it if it was me

Iv dont a bit of digging on the domain name, It was started on the 23/01/2011 and is paid for till 2013...

That alone is a good indaction that its not a scam, most scam sites buy for 1 year only because they never last that long...
The domain also have all reg details, ownes name and address as public which is another plus...

If you can buy through paypal then its a legit site, If they try shaft you paypal can get the money back....

Worth a chance me thinks.


EDIT.

I have also bought allot of stuf from china through ebay and never once had a problem with duty.....

Reels.
Braid.
Hooks.
Rod.

Always arrives fine.

Be careful some of this stuff may be produced in china and is spurious s**t. I seen this thread on another site about hooks that were supposed to be Kamasan's http://www.worldseafishing.com/forums/s ... u-any-more
Rule of thumb if it's too good to be true it usually is!!!!

forget it Alan, complete waste of money. Trust me, been there, tested it. Lures are simply not working, they are all over the place when in the water, their braid is mediocre to say the least and I certainly wouldn't trust these hooks. Similar junk is springing up everywhere on various Asian eBay shops at the moment with the southern half of the globe's fishing in full swing. Check it out for yourself, it's the same selection and 'brand' of plugs, spinners, angling gear etc on all these sites. And it's all the same junk.

hooks arent the best!

Stick wit the brand names,was falling off the chair laughing when I was looking at their site,you wouldnt want the hooks or line failing you when you need it the most.saw similar aberdeen copies losing a big fish last year,not worth the pain..
