Default Spares Availability

Well, where do I start, I have now had my pole broken for at least four months. I have tried a few shops, all with the same out come and the same answer, "sorry, they were out of stock" or "they are on their holiday" or " they didnt send it" - yes, it is a Garbolino pole!

Are these shops like mobile phone shops? Happy to sell you the phone but when it goes wrong and you need it fixed they are just useless. or is it down to Garbolino?

All I want is a number 7 section for a G796 so I can use my pole, does anyone know of one or how to get it direct from Garbolino???

Try logging on to Andys Angle and see if Darren on that site can help he may be able to talk directly to Garbolino for you, have you tried to get your section repaired try Scott at Essele ( EPR ) hes well reccomended.

Got to agree with Keith, there isn't a section that Scott can't repair.

i did look at that site
they do everything looks good think they even do spares there that people have sent in to them and what they have repaired

Andy will take a look at that site as well, thanks

its a bit of a pore show thou of garbolino or is it the shops??
that i have to get it fixed rather than getting a new one may be someone should open a spares shop in the UK for all the poles everyone has something or other broken on there pole.
you think you phone them ask them if they no7 sec for G796 they say yes send it to you job done
may be i should look in to this my self......lol.....

Fishing Spares - fishingspares.co.uk

Try this website, i know they don't do garbo spares but its a very good website showing you spares for current and discontinued models for some manufacturers, its a useful website when buying a second hand pole or older model as it gives you the reassurance of spares availability and cost of individual sections. I'm afraid i've not bought anything from them so i can't speak from personal dealings.
