Fenlander 0 Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 R Yates & Sons Ltd Online Shop Mk 4 Mk 6 Must say that if those MK VI's are the genuine article that is the cheapest I have seen them for some time.. Quote Link to post
davedavedave 69 Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 The website says the Mk4 & Mk6 are "original" and as you say the pictures would confirm this too. Therefore I have taken a punt and have ordered 2 x Mk4 as this qualifies for free P+P for some squirrel work. I shall see what turns up in the post and let you know. Quote Link to post
Guest RN-Rabbit-Control Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Dave, I was at Yates's last weekend and the ones in the shop are cheap chinese copies. Quote Link to post
davedavedave 69 Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 I spoke to the shop and they said they sell both then original "Made in England" ones at and Chinese copies so I told them I wanted the orginal "Made in England" version please as per the website. They turned up today and I am please to say are indeed the pukka ones stamped "Made in England" and are quality so I am very happy. Therefore I guess when you order specify you want the "Made in England" version. Also "Made in England" sell at £7.50 which for included P+P whilst the Chinese copies at £5.00 so the price you pay should be an indicator too. Quote Link to post

I'm glad you managed to avoid the cheap imports. Genuine FENN traps will also be stamped A. FENN and the mark of the trap as shown in the attached photo. 'Springer' and 'Solway' traps are also name branded. Anything which only has 'Made in England' on may still be unapproved copies. Edited to add that I've just found a picture of a Springer too Quote Link to post
davedavedave 69 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Hi John thanks for your reply. Attached is a picture of mine which seems to have the correct things stamped on it. Quote Link to post
john b 38 Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Yep - they look like the real deal then. Quote Link to post
