2. its not for McT to tell you what to get Ummm you should know or have some idea.
like i said my 2cents

I disagree - if you are putting down that much coin - McT should at least have some confidence in recommending a board from their range - otherwise they should offer to make you a custom or send you to someone who can. Or if what you are asking for is not a practical solution for what they think you want then they should point out the reasons why in a nice manner and then take your cash.

I would think that McT would do the right thing though.

you disagree Ted.

So tell us what your experience with the McT people has been like when ordering boards from them

well i can tell you what my service was like.
i think i went into every board shop in Byron and noosa this month and McT gave the best information on their
range i thought their product and service was the best and that was why i purchased my FIRST Mct board

Well if you read carefully Weiry - I disagreed with your comment not McT - and only said good things about McT. In fact if you really read into what I was saying - I was saying that the issue would probably be more with Andyroo, without actually saying it out loud - who since then has said

"Mct have been way helpful, i'm being difficult" which is what I was implying.

I have dealt with McT this month on another matter concerning a board and I can say that they have been nothing short of fantastic. Hence why I said that "I would think that McT would do the right thing." All my previous experiences with McT have been fantastic as well. They really have the service thing down pat - a lot of people could learn from them.

Nothing against you what so ever Andyroo - more just trying to say that McT would do the best for the customer. I just think that if someone is putting over their hard-earned that the board shop has a responsibility to make sure they give the customer exactly what they want and if the customer is unsure then they should advise to the best of their ability based on their knowledge. Sometimes / often you need the advice of the shop to make sure you get the best board. Why not use their knowledge to your advantage. I aways do. McT have no shortage of knowledge in this area! I am sure you will find the best board for what you are after by doing yr homework. This site can be very good for helping people get that extra info they seek. I have learnt lots from what some have posted on here.

DOH!!! haha, thanks... i emailed him through FB and responded so i'll see what he comes up with. gonna call him bit later when i have a break.

on another note, this seems a damn good buy, shame its not a 9" -9.5" as poss a bit too big.

Clever editing ted, but edit what you started, not the comfort thought at the end

Macaha said...
so whats the outcome Boarder Paul would have ordered a board by now.

Surely not

Weiry - quit why you are behind

Right ...... that's a double beer fine ............ sixpack of full strength piss in stubbies - you have been penalised under section 1 - paragraphs I & II ..... " Petulance , Oral Flatulence and or Continuing to be a McTavish slapper of the wickedest and or dastardlyest order" ..... you may appeal but given your recent poor discipline & flaccidity , I shall double the fine if / when proven guilty

ha, classic case of rich hi society snobby mctavish owners getting sh1tty and using fascist bully boy tactics to suppress 'we' the common punters who can get classy boards at a realistic price.

the revolution has started.

Thats dang funny Mac... and yes, i just think we were a better fit but i'm pretty lame so not sure what that means

A tip for ya too, a carton will assist with your delivery date.

pretty funny guys. now who's the bagman. who do i give the money to get that bs write up taken down.

Geez that was swift ------>------>------->>>> well Brother Lacey , the Prez Asea has just got off the TolhurstPhone ... he says he will gladly take your coinage as he is currently sussing out another cracker of a board and will require $$$$ in order to successfully complete swoopage ......

I have been so tempted to fire up those Mctavish lovers....yet there paranoia did it for me

Now with more Australian and state champions than any other brand this year.....well how could you not love a CLEARWATER innovation not imitation..... No dodgy retro has been boards going through Steve's doors
