kickingfrog Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Still may not be what some people would like, but seems better to me than before.
Dan668 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 A lot better than before, still the pdf, hate that idea.
skeeter Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Yes they have. It is better because now you can scroll down to see the items rather then loading 1 page at a time. They are missing a lot of there product on there now, like float suit. I have 1 question----- What the heck does "Ice Fiching" mean? Brand new site and none of the computer geeks know how to use "spell check" :tease:
kickingfrog Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Posted December 9, 2011 Ya, still a work in progress. Yesterday most of the site was under construction.
GBW Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 I have 1 question----- What the heck does "Ice Fiching" mean? Isn't that what you call it when you try and grab your glasses out of the hole as they sink?
BillM Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 I can't imagine the business they lose because of that site... Spend the cash, get a proper site done and that's it.. It's not as expensive in this day and age...
Gerritt Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 I can't imagine the business they lose because of that site... Spend the cash, get a proper site done and that's it.. It's not as expensive in this day and age... really? can you imagine writing the backend for their site? the DB alone would be a nightmare considering the thousands of items they carry... but many of the same items in different sizes etc... it explains why it is cheaper for them to have their physical catalog on the site in .pdf Not user friendly I know but cheaper for them... no servers, no SQL, no DB, no ATM... just simple pdf... They would need a dedicated web admin to keep the site up and running I would imagine it would cost them well over 20k just to get the site up and running if they actually had a DB with all the items they stock, not to mention a backend to support online transactions... dang... the server and co-locate alone would run 10-20% of that cost, add in e-commerce and i can see why they stick to pdf but like I said... not user friendly as it is... but you can still find the info you need.

BillM Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 That's what cheap labour in Bangalore is for

solopaddler Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Fixed it for ya Bill. And yes, their website blows!!!!! But it's the only place I can get good splitshot. LOL centerpinangling.com carries the round gremlin shot you like bud. Cheap prices and fast shipping.
skeeter Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 Isn't that what you call it when you try and grab your glasses out of the hole as they sink? Then I do a lot of "ice fiching" :tease:
GBW Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 that's the pic I was looking for, LOL!!! little does Skeeter know, his glasses were right beside him on the minnow bucket...
DRIFTER_016 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 centerpinangling.com carries the round gremlin shot you like bud. Cheap prices and fast shipping. Should be ok for a few years after my shopping trip to LeBarons when I was back in October Mike.
chefboi17 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Posted December 9, 2011 centerpinangling.com carries the round gremlin shot you like bud. Cheap prices and fast shipping. Sail has them for a little cheaper than lebarons, something like 1.89 vs 1.45, they are my fav because they are cheap, and you don't need pliers to squeeze them on, I think those raven splitshot would bury into my finger before it would close enough to be secure
Wolf 3 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Posted December 10, 2011 It looks like they are back to the old format.
kickingfrog Posted December 10, 2011 Author Report Posted December 10, 2011 It looks like they are back to the old format. Not if you left the other pdf screen open on your desk-top. Seems to be a bit extreme just to change "fiching".
skeeter Posted December 10, 2011 Report Posted December 10, 2011 that's the pic I was looking for, LOL!!! little does Skeeter know, his glasses were right beside him on the minnow bucket... Those are my sun glasses. My reading/knot tying glasses sank like a torpedo. AGAIN
