do a lot of woden curtain poles. They are cheaper than even the
discount curtain warehouse type places and even do poles up to 4m
which I had been unable to find in the shops.

Yes, but they're not oak, are they. They're stained pine.

Could they legaly sell pine as:
"High quality Light Oak wood pole" ?


This one doesnt look like pine, but not sure it looks exactly like Oak
either:

Look at these:

They are supposed to be different wood but they have the same "worm
holes" etc. They are clearly the same picture (of a pine pole) tinted
differently.

Their crap pictures are doing them no favours. I've emailed them.
