JDM Purchase

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Don't know about Digitaka.
To be honest I've never once had to communicate with a JDM retailer. Over 40 orders (digitaka, plat, jpangler, bassjp, japanlureshop, samurai, and ichiban) and one has never gone wrong lol. While on the other hand I've had issues requiring contact and or returns with TW, Tackle Direct, Hi's, and ALFC. Everyone handled them fine but I think it's pretty hilarious that with about the same amount of orders I've only ever had issues with American retailers.
Where humans work, they will make mistakes. I do not think it is a problem and the most important thing is how do they handle the mistakes. I had japanese shop sending wrong item, it happens everywhere. Just need to have good customer service and everything is fine.

Here I meant simple communication like that - When do you expect this item back in stock?
Can you order that and that color? Just a general question about a product.
Never had any issues with deliveries.

I ordered a some spybaits and rod gloves from TW a year or 2 back. When I opened the box it had 4 live target frogs and a spool of Sufix 832 50lb line in it. They had sent someone elses order to me and mine to him. Called them up they told me to keep just keep it and sent me a duplicate order. Obviously had I gotten some guys Stella I'm sure that wouldn't have happened but it was still a nice way to handle it.
TW is a class outfit!

Agreed. I have ordered two from them over the last month with zero issues. I did have a small SNAFU with Megabass, but just pay with paypal and you're covered.
