I'm afraid he can do whatever he wants. He owes nobody anything.

All this Alex bashing is lame. No wonder most suppliers don't post on here, they get bashed no matter how approachable and reasonable they are.

I bet the next time Alex has a sale those 22s will now sell even quicker. Fair play to you Alex
I'm thinking discounted first cleans for the next 10 custys...or probably not!

Not sure what all the moaning is about, Alex had poles on sale, they sold, sale ended.

I missed out which i was gutted but.........

I have just got a SLX25 from Sure clean systems, thanks Alex and Sure clean!!!!!

 

[g.brookes]

I agree.  what the hell are you moaning about?! its his business and he can run it out however he wants.  most wfp companies dont have sales like this, and i for one am very happy to have saved over £150 on something I was going to buy anyway. 
Just because something is typed on an internet forum doesnt mean things wont change

you can't say the sale will last until end of march and 3 days later stop the sale! not fair!

Can you drop me an email explaining your situation please - alex@agardiner.co.uk

If that genuinely happened then its unfortunate and I sympathise.

Why take the passive aggressive approach though? A simple email explaining the situation to Alex will, I'm sure, lead to a satisfactory outcome. He tends to be a reasonable chap in situations like this.

deeeege,do you work for gardiner?

[deeege]

Nope. This is the only thread that I've been a Gardiner fanboy too.

I just found some peoples sense of entitlement hilarious when he ended the sale.

It isn't about entitlement, it's about the odd way it was all conducted. A sale supposedly until the stock is sold, then the sale is pulled before the stock is gone and conflicting information about the reaon for its ending.

The real point is that if the firm had not posted on the subject of the sale and when it is due to end, none of this and speculation about the reaons would be occurring. It is just bad PR.

Gardiners and others would be better ignoring 99% of the threads on here in my opinion.

slx ranges, not on sale anymore?

We have sold through all of the SLX stock reserved for the sale in just 3 days - we were not quite aware of just how popular the sale would be on the SLX range. The SLX range is still on a 'partial sale' though with every pole purchased coming with a free carbon gooseneck and brush (worth £55+VAT)

We have now had to restrict the 'Carbon Pole Sale' to the Super-Max40, Super-Max45, Super-Max47, Xtreme18, Xtreme25, Xtreme35, Xtreme47 & all Xtreme telescopic extensions.

The sale is going to be on until April, but not in all of the sizes. We were just completely swamped over the last three days with the sheer volume of sales in the SLX range particularly - nearly 2 month's sales in just 3 days.

i am so pleased for you Alex and your team, well-deserved!

That last comment is nice ben M!

Haha!

In my mind there is only one reason you need a to have sale on - you got to much stock on your hands that you aren't shifting (competitions taking a piece of the action, etc)

There's only one consistently professional and helpful pole company that posts on this forum ...
