Well mine it different... but it related if you think about sending it or driving it to peterborough.... Few months ago I called aikmans I didnt know they dont accept broken rods anymore... they told me to called the head-office in peterborough, so I called they very polite.. told me to send to their address... I have to get box or tube were I can put the rod in and send it to post office... I asked them how long will it take for me to recieve it... maybe 3to4 weeks because we have to send your rod to the US and then you have to include a postage so that they could send the rod to me... so I was like, what the """".... so I said how about if I drive it there to peterborough??? she said you can but still we dont have a rod to raplace ur rod... still we need to send it to the US...
so many wise for me:
sending to post office back in forth...
40d???
tube to put the rod in 20to25d??
or driving.... 40d gas back in forth to toronto.... and still u need to pay the postage one way... going back to you....
what I did called a local who they can fix the guide... 30d for 4 broken guides and only takes 3days... is not new but it doesnt look like I almost pay the whole amount of my rod if you think of how much would it cost you to send it.. plus the hassle...
