bobcullen79 1,495 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 dont be convinced by the warranty on the greys rods i bought 2 carp rods for bassing in the same day first time out the inserts fell out of the first bottom ring ,ok easy repair for me but why after paying top money should i ? rang greys the reply was cut the section up into 4" lengths then post them back we will replace the section at £35 warranty ! i said send me the rings i will rewhip them on ,nope chop the sections up or no new section ,then i bought a new greys sea spinning rod ,broke just above the but section , no pressure on it ,it just broke ,same thing chop the lot up send it back £35 warranty ,before you all start the slagging this site is famous for ,i have fished all around the world ,from cuban tarpon to nile perch .marlin ,you name it i have caught it , as said before i will never buy a greys (made in the far east ) again ..just my opinion again , those happy ,cheers best of luck ,but just wait untill the rod breaks your warranty is near half the price of a brand new rod ,,warrantys should be free like sage etc I snapped a 3lb tc chub outkast, and chub being a sister company to hardy and greys, gave me the same treament. What a load of wank. All that "world wide lifetime guarentee" Aint worth the paper its printed on. I ended up getting another pair second hand, so now I have spare sections and plenty of spare eyes.
