      he shudnt have to take a set of scales to the shop to weigh his worms!!!!!!!!

      no matter how good or bad the bait is he should of got 4 ounces what he paid for!!!!!!

      ya cant look at it and say oh it looks like there is 3qaurters of an ounce short in that packet.

      not good at all...... and it isnt the only person ive heard say something like this.

                  If I bought that, then complained, and was sold it a second time I would slander the shop everyday on the forums so everyone knew about it. You should be getting what you pay for, simples!

                    As do i, but it happens everywhere. The meat we buy is injected with water to increase weight. Bacon is a prime example. They shouldnt but they do because they can

                      mate i only use the shop in question when desperate....if not i wud rather drive to sunderland or stockton or hartlepool for that matter. i have stopped buying rods reels and bit n bobs from that shop too simply because i dont see the point in supporting someone who just dont seem to care. i went in for rag coupla sessions back and got given harbour rag by mistake ...hint hint!!!

                            his worm is **** hot when the tides are big because a good mate of myne digs it. but thats not the point.... the point is he got less than what he paid for.

                              Maybe it's your scales that are not working 3-1/4oz plus 2-3/4oz makes 6oz that means you scored for 2oz
