How about putting a forum area for links to sites that sell quality training gear. We have the trade in / exchange section but what if you want new, good quality stuff. It would be easier to have a section of links recomended by the superiors of the forum, at least it will steer us away from buying crap quality stuff that falls apart and needs replacing often. Example - i bought a punch bag from a "reputable" dealer online and the first hit (elboe strike) it took the damn thing split straight in two! I ended up buying one of my instructors heavy bags as he was having a clearout. I'm reluctant to buy stuff of this nature online now as it's happened a few times - Rick you know what happen with my "quality ratan" hahaha!! Damn lolly pop stick would have been better quality. Just an idea.

nice idea ben. dont think a section would suffice.
will ask around and get a pinned topic up in the classifieds section to reputable dealers

Sorry Ben

I just posted on this new thread to say "nice idea Rick"

Didn't realise you'd suggested it - so "Nice idea Ben"

But..... well done to Rick too for posting it and sorting out the stickie


Phew - got out of that one

Hahahaha! No offence taken. I did mean a sticky but had a brain freeze moment.

Rick : MSN still not working for me mate. Being a complete tard again.
