This was the only place in Australia I could find this particular pintle, quick delivery and a good price, thanks guys
Great experience.
They didn't have my item in stock so they had it sent direct from the supplier express. Sent from Victoria and got it in FNQ next day. Very pleased.
Great value. Product is good. Was cheaper for me to get it through the mail from Andrew than it was for me to get in the car and get it myself from another supplier. Will be a return customer for sure.
Great product perfect for the job Thanks Boating Central
