So they have my money & goods .... SO BE WARNED ABOUT MACHINE MART


Well, that's them struck off my suppliers list.
**** them right between the eyes.


I've never had any problems with Machine Mart. Quite knowledgeable and
helpful staff in my local store.


let's hope you never have to experience the "conniving corporate
****s" section of their management "training" scheme.

I once visited two of their branches to try & get spares for a MIG
welder, first lot were crap - had me waiting about even though I was
the only customer in - "are you being served sir" "I think so but it's
taking rather a long time", after all that they couldn;t answer my
questions.. 2nd smaller store - older chap - very helpful....but I've
never been back to any of their stores.

sloppy standards would seem to be the order of their day, I wonder how
long they'll be about too, too many branches, lots of stock, prices
too high, customers getting ****ed off - you got to wonder....
