I have been buying of E Bay for the pst 7 or 8 Months, I have been looking to kit myself out with freshwater Carp and Pike Gear.

On the whole I am pleased with the products purchased, the only time I considered being ripped off was partly my fault for not asking questions.

I have had some real bargains but you must watch what the postage costs are as you can sometimes get the same product locally  cheaper if you consider what the postage costs are.

My advice is plain and simple.... dont get carried away when bidding, ask enough questions so you know exaxtly what you are getting and always look at the cost of postage.
