    They're alright. You mean targetsports.co.nz? The website sucks and there's no credit card.

    I used them as an import agent also and got brilliant service. Good communication throughout the deal and helped with the paperwork (endorsed gear).

    Thanks for all of the input guys. I have been in contact with Darren and most of your comments are about Phil but I get the feeling from what you have said that the business is a good one to deal with.
