Samurai Tackle

Post by Johnny A » Wed Jul 12, 2017 6:09 am

Anybody else see the extended closing message e-mail from Samurai Tackle? I think this is the second time, possibly third time in a year they've done something like this.
This is what happened with GinrinPeche in the old days, before they shut the doors for good. I've shopped their a time or two. Great selection of goods, although the prices were a bit on the high side.

Yeah I saw this as I was rollin' through some of the websites I check periodically. They've always been easy to contact with questions and have had fast shipping the few times I have ordered through them. You have to REALLY want it to buy from them though. Prices are definitely on the high side.

I placed couple times in that online shop. Great service and fast shipping.
Great selection, unlike other shops where popular colors usually out of stock.

I checked the site after seeing this post and could not find follow up info. Could you please share the closing dates given in the email here just in case I missed it. Thanks
