stig31 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Could I get some reviews on king of water sports. I am having some issues and I want to see if I am a one off case or not before I work out how to move forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Maybe, explain your situation ACCORDING TO YOU missing out any liabelous phrases. Be honest about it basically without getting into a slanging match on here because... a. This may bring others out with similar problems if any and. b. I'm a nosey bstrd.

The Geoff Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 What do you mean by "issues"? Could be something as simple as your review including "So I went out at Scunthorpe and...." and a swear filter is picking up on four letters in the middle...

SonnyRider Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Like I said on KB Sold me a good kite a three years back I bought some pads & straps last summer, no issues GF bought a kite from them late last year, from their ebay. Phoning direct, they tried to get her to spend more. So we took a chance and put in a max amount we were happy with and won the kite for a really good price. no issues with the kite I am sure you will hear both good and bad reports, as is always the case If you have beef, then deal with them Otherwise you will be clouded by other scenarios which have nothing to do with your issue ?

m14dgt Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Give them a call and speak to charlie or ash theyre really friendly and approachable and can generally get any issue sorted quickly.

mad_cath Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 i had a great experience with them - ordered a 12m 2013 TS, and bar and lines with xmas discount. they then phoned me back and said there was a mistake in their stock, so they offered me the 2014 12m TS instead, but without the xmas discount. Great of them to honour my purchase. I did have a warranty problem with the bar and KoW were really good/quick in trying to resolve it. Only thing - there is a known warranty problem with the 2013 redline bar swivel cracking - they have a massive stock of these updated replacement parts, so why not send out these updated parts with the 2013 bars? It would save a load of warranty back and forth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They found that they hadn't got that kite so they sold you another kite but WITHOUT a discount. So they made even more money out of you after their mistake.

mad_cath Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 got the 2014 kite for a very good price though, i reckon wholesale... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonC1599968707 Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 I placed 2 orders with them recently after years of using Powerkiteshop (which was always excellent). First order,paid extra for next day delivery,got it after 4 days and the kite arrived without the bar(ordered complete). Second order,ordered a shorty 3/2 wetsuit,received full length 5/4,completely different model!!Sent it back for full refund,took 2 weeks of emails etc.to get the money back,as they "lost" the wetsuit in their warehouse. Prices were good but would propably not order from them again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
