Popped into J&S...

Post by Yarek »

Went into J&S store today - coming along - still some of the old Hein Gericke stock there, but fair bit of new stuff too. Ended up spending a small fortune - but did manage to walk away without buying a helmet I liked, so I'm taking the moral high ground. :2up

It's nae bad so far. Certainly an improvement in my opinion. I was there last Sat with the Mrs and ended up kitting her out. The range of kit available has definitely improved.

My experience of them is that they sell a massive range from cheap and cheerful right through to expensive, I used to get a lot of my gear from them in Kimberley Nottinghamshire.

Hmmm - might be a mixture of old & new, not sure. Didn't recognise a couple folks, but I didn't frequent the old store a huge amount. I was happy with the service I got when I was in there though - the two folks that served me were really helpful.

The same lassie is still there, but she seems to have some new minions.
