    Like, in person?

    I get fairly regular deliveries from them. Usually within a couple of days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,540 ✭✭✭Stigura


    Yeah. I've used them several times. Never any bother. They stock such a range it's difficult Not to get sucked into their orbit, isn't it? :)

    Only, I've had an order in with them since April. Got the money's been taken. Got the We've received ye order. Then Processing.

    Now, obviously, one has to bear with it, these days. Only, I've rang them a couple of times now. Just now being one. It just rings out / cuts off.

    I'm not rattled. I'm just bored out of my tiny little mind and looking for Anything to pass another fleeting moment. Ringing them. Posting about it, on here. Anything! :pac:

    Really just wondering if there's bod's in their store now. Because, if so, it'll at least mean they're trying to deal with a monumental back log. But, my new trap will be part of that. It'd show me a light at the end of this tunnel :)

    My last order was last Wednesday at 16:53 and it arrived on the Friday morning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,540 ✭✭✭Stigura


    :eek: :eek: :eek: F**k!!! That's Not what I was expecting!


    I'll email them, NOW!

    Kowloon; They're generally fine! Google " Something I need. Living rural. Ireland " Nine times out of ten They come top of the list for having it. And You have it, in short order.

    Just my luck that I've splashed out on an absolute top of the range trap. It's a tad time sensitive. And they've bloody vanished on me! :(

    I'd put it down to them being locked down. Lumen's just well and truly burst That bubble.

    I await a response to me email.

    I'm sure whatever you're trying to murder will hang on a few more days. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,540 ✭✭✭Stigura


    :eek: Au contraire mon ami! Far from wishing to murder anything ~ short of the person ballsing my order! ~ I want to trap the young and inexperienced corvids, to be arriving any time now.

    But, I'll not be wringing their necks. I Ring their legs. I'm a licenced Bird Ringer. It's 'what I do', now :) Or, would. If this bloody trap would get here!!! :mad:

    Ordered from them yesterday, shipped today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,540 ✭✭✭Stigura


    :) Yep. I had an email response from them, this evening. Prime example of why we must give firms the benefit of the doubt, just now.

    Turns out they need a certain wire, for part of this traps mechanism? I can see this. I make enough traps myself. Only, they ordered said wire from Holland. They normally have it in a couple of weeks.

    It was sent Two Months Ago and is now languishing in some interim depot. whilst all the depot. workers are sat at home, tearing Their hair out!

    Happily, Mac Eoins have 300 of an even better trap, ready made and waiting! I hope to be amongst those crows by this time next week, so! :D

    OMFG!!! Trap arrived this morning and I'm bouncing off the walls! :D I can't get over the sheer Size of this damn thing! Courier set it, on its side, by my gate? I'm looking at it 4/5 the way up the gate!

    And, as for DIY? There's no way on gods little green earth ye could make one of these, for that price. That was the first thing that struck me, after the enormous size of the thing!

    I'm a Very happy bunny! :D

    Just admit it, you're trapping Dubs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,540 ✭✭✭Stigura


    No Dub's here! I'm in Leitrim. So, even if they got beyond the pail, they'd never pass through the veil, into the place that is only told of in vicious piss takes! :D
