lewis tackle

[simon.]

mmmmm don't really know what to say now - I send Simon 15 books, who I knew was struggling to keep the business going, with a sale or return, no invoice until after Xmas, good luck with your struggles message, and then find the business has gone down.... I'm really sad because Lewis' have been the best bait shop I've ever been to but I'm told all the assets are on e-bay (presumably mine included) and I don't really know what the procedure is so I reply in a way I would believe non commital which would answer my question. Would I expect to be top of the pile? not at all. Would I expect a reply telling me where I stand ? Yes I would.

Sad that things have gone this far.

I'm not willing to listen to your BS on here mate, i'll be at the shop form around 11 in the morning tidying up, i'll expect a phone call off you 0191 2526017.

Agree,a pm regarding any transaction between you,would have shown a bit of decorum.If you had then dealt with this bloke contemptuously,putting it on an open forum,would have been fine.
Shame regarding your shop mate,best of British for the future.

Sorry to hear the news Simon!
Well done on getting a job though! They are not easy to come by nowadays! (Speaking from experience)!
Hope to speak to you again as you have given me good advice over the years.
Best wishes to you Kelly and the bairn!

Yes shop will be a miss the thing I found when i was in the shop Simon always had time for people young or old,regular customer or new and whether buying or just looking he took the time to help.i wasn't in there a great deal just when I was looking for rods n reels or reel spares but he always had time for you.good luck to him in his new job.

Now there's a shop i just cannot get me nut around, went up recently and asked for £40 of crab and he said I could only have £20 as he was limiting it to £20/customer After convincing him that £20's worth was no good he let me have £30 of it (thanks very much indeed), he's cracked it, turned it around, now he's the customer in the shop. This is despite me in the last 3 years having bought multiple £50 batches of crab, 2 Blue Elites and many items of terminal gear off of him.

Like the guy before said John must be doing something right he has two tackle shops open when others are falling by the wayside.Also might be thinking of other regular customers better everyone getting a little rather than a few getting it all...
