Mikes reel repair-doesn't answer mail

hafnor · February 16, 2012, 01:41:45 PM

sent him 4 mails... Anyone know how to get him to contact me? Is he on this forum?

alantani · February 16, 2012, 04:26:39 PM

he's not here. he is swamped with his own business. did not need something in particular from him?

I need a washer and a powercord for an electrical daiwa reel, some carbontex, some bellevilles and cals. I just wanted to order all from the same site, to save shipping.

yeah, sorry, most of that i could not help with. $:-\$

Hafnor,I gave up on Mikes Reel Repairs years ago. I waited months for parts without ever receiving a reply to my Emails.

Haf,

I have to agree... these guys may be good in Canada, but stink in the US! I have waited 4 weeks+ for shipping

, as for getting back to you... it's unlikely.

That is no good!

I'm Canadian and live an hour's drive away from the MRR shop but have given up trying to do business with them-not worth the aggravation.

Hey Whalebreath,

I see we can agree on something

This is no good!:( I think they saw this post or something, because he answered yesterday. Some parts have to be ordered from the supplier (as expected). I really don't think I have another choice but to order from him... Daiwa Norway doesn't have the parts I need so...

Hafnor, might be worth trying Daiwa UK,see link. PM me with what you need and I'll contact them.

Try these guys in Florida. I ordered from them and got really good service.

Haf,
I still wouldn't order from him... He needed a topic on Alan Tani about how crappy his service is to get a response back to you. You're gonna wait a heck of a long time for your order unless this thread gets his butt in gear... doubt it though!
I would make the part before I bought from him!
