Save £300? Maybe.

Spend more than two days sorting out the deal?  Probably.

Youre better off working and earning the extra cash to buy a tried and tested pole that you know can go back if theres a problem, in my opinion. In particular how much time, effort and stress will you go through if what arrives isnt right in any way?  False economy as far as I can see but then again, Im not the one doing it.

I don't know,some of the poles I have been looking at don't look too bad. Just will need a few shiners to club together to order,thats the problem I see.

That looks pretty similar to the Aquadapter version.

That looks pretty similar to the Aquadapter version.

strange that  ,only problem with that its got those sprung clamps that will constantly need adjusting and i guess the lever will flop about when released-only my thoughts but used those type of clamps before on another pole,thats why i searched for another type of pole and clamps

Maybe you Wang the Wong number.

Funny you should say that. I asked for an 18, 25 and a 45.
They said do you want rice or chips with them.

I have tried to buy stuff from alibaba before, total PITA!

Let the suppliers deal with the headache - the poles are reasonably priced nowadays anyway.

Hi Ben ,
 
This is discounted shipping cost .
 
We exported telescopic pole sample to UK , all with UPS express .
 
If you have account of DHL , Fedex , then we can arrange the sample pole at freight collection .
 
I think it is worthy to have a fast shipping and a coveted pole with just less than USD 150.00 .
 
Kind regards,
Maggie

[jarvy]

i'll have the 35!

[ben M]

i will stay with gardiner, not worth buying directly in china IMAO

Hi I bought a 18ft and 45 ft china Pole , exactly the same ones as Kevinc .

The combined price was £440 , plus £54 import tax £500

Superb VERTICAL clamps , the main reason I bought them .

The 45ft Gardiners SuperMax , with clamps that I just hate to use is approx £650
Then add a 18ft at say £180 ? Total £830.

THE CHINA POLE SAVING IS IN BUYING THE 45ft pole.

It will last me ages as it's only used several times a month .

Bought via him sending me a PAYPAL invoice , a few clicks and onced I'd paid he emailed me a hour later saying there in the post

4 days later they were at my house .

So I've saved say £330 .
