Ive been trying to get some large 16mm and 20mm rolling tables for a couple of months now,every time i ring to order them i get told they are on order and should be in in a couple of weeks,after i stopped ringing for a couple of weeks i got told they have come in but have all sold out makers not sent enough,now they tell me they wont be getting more in till march "if" they bother to get any at all as storage space taken up by them is huge and they make more money on smaller items.

When i sugested they should put "out of stock" and due in date on their web site for any item that is out of stock the guy got pissy said not got time to sort that out all the time and put the phone down on me.

obviously buisy then................

When Des Taylor was involved with Badger (hereafter referred to as Bodger!) I made enquiries about whether the company would be interested in taking on-line orders from FW....

Des was honest enough to say that many of the items advertised in the mags were not actually in stock....and only came into stock when sufficient orders were received for them to be paid for up front and then manufactured in China and then shipped out...

Therefore this was no good to us, as FW members rightly expected prompt delivery of goods after payment....not no delivery ever if there were not sufficent orders...

Bodger sums them up......

....the guy got pissy said not got time to sort that out all the time and put the phone down on me......

That's enough to put me off, as is their very high postage costs.

So to Billy Bodger.

So on a scale of 1 to 10?

(were not actually in stock....and only came into stock when sufficient orders were received for them to be paid for up front)

Paul thats exacly the reason why i never ordered or paid for them to send the tables as i suspected they were always short of stock from what ive read on forums.

When i first rang them i said i want to know if they have them in stock the woman said no thier on their way from poland(or some place)and are due in in a couple of weeks,she said do you want to order them? i said no ill rather wait till they come in and know there in stock,i rang 2 weeks later and still not come had some bulls*** excuse about being stuck in port,rung 2 weeks later as advised,answer was sorry they never sent enough and have sold out,so i left it for a month then rang again they said were out of them and wont be getting more till march "if" they bother as their not big sellers and take up loads of storage space LOL but if i wanted 10mm tables i could they have loads,probably got 1 somebody ordered but never paid for gathering dust on the shelf

Shows what sort of company they are if they cant order stock unless YOU pay up front:(

Wonder who thought up the name? they must of been waching bbc1 childrens hour and said urika i know we will call our selves bodger no no no people my take it litraly we will have to call our selves badger

The names a Fox wind-up.......

And the stuff comes from the same place!!!
