smufter Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 I seem to recall sellers doing this when they are "out of stock" because it saves them having to go through the agro of "re-listing" when they get some more. I use those and they are great. salokcinnodrog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use those and they are great. I managed to break one last week, (I always have 2 just in case), pulling a hair loop knot through a wooden ball, not bad life, must be around 4years old, and well used. It was only because I needed a new one I went searching on ebay. Mind you I did buy one from a cheaper seller with free carriage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better in the bright green rather than black because they are harder to lose. But it doesn't stop me losing them (usually to my daughters tackle box) salokcinnodrog and B.C. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commonly Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 I'm in need of new ones, I've lost both my fox one's, I prefer it to be a fine needle with a hook rather than the latch type. Any preferences?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any preferences?? I still prefer these, no latch on them. Reminds me, I must get a new one, I broke one last trip. I do prefer the black though. commonly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commonly Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 Had a right result! I even said to the girl in the shop, it must be the cheapest item in the shop & then explained how much profit they could make selling them on the bay. 😂 salokcinnodrog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
