It never went away mate. Cant remember the name of the woman that had it when i first started going there, jo maybe? Was in woodford then. She had taken it over from her dad. Then sold it to a guy called gary who used to work there. Gary then sold it to mark who runs it with his sons. It moved to collier row, took over the shop that was specialist tackle, but cant remember wether it was gary or mark who had it when they moved.

From personal experience I'd rather not have fishing gear kicking about a couriers depot or van for to long 👎

Yes I spoke to him and he said it had been posted. Think he's gonna track it with the courier to see what's happening. I'm in no rush, it's just the not knowing lol.

I think every shop has issues at some point,the problem is alot of the time they are messed about by the company supplying them.It gets just as frustrating for the shop as it does the customer

Keswalls in collier row had some available earlier this week. Not sure if they are still available but could be worth a call to anyone looking for one

I have had that with TFT before, (when the Titan was re-launched) placed my order on a pre-order basis and instead of limiting this to the number they have allocated for their first drop they sell as many as they can. If you are lucky and are within the first drop, happy days otherwise you have to wait until the second and sometimes third order......

I had pre-ordered my Titan on the same day it went live on their website yet wasn't included on the first drop which i found very hard to believe.....was then told the second drop would be 2 weeks later which I was fine about but that came and went.....looked around the net and there were plenty of other shops showing they had them in stock so cancelled TFT and went elsewhere

Sometimes there is such hysteria that FOMO kicks in and people rush to pre-order when in reality there isn't any need...

Still waiting on mine too. It was posted a week ago so it's down to the courier. Have you checked that yours hasn't been posted? You could be in the same situation as me.

Yup, I saw on here that they oversold the pre orders and I had one update from them in 4 months and that was to say it could be May, I cancelled my order with TFT and ordered from a local tackle shop and it came next day.

If you look on eBay there’s a few tackle shops advertising on there that they have them in stock. Give them a call instead just to make sure they have them in first.
