GBI purchased a greenland paddle I purchased a greenland paddle. They praise themselves on attention to detail but the quality off the finished product was very disappointing.

GBCheap for a reason. Products don't last long. I'd bought some items from Lomo that have not lasted long before needing to be replaced. I was initially pleased with my purchases but having now used the items, I am disappointed with their longevity. After just over a year's occasional use, my wetsuit has torn in 2 places and the reflective coating from my polarised sunglasses have all but rubbed off. I expected the products to give me a good number of years of use before reaching the state that they are in. The price of their items seemed cheaper than mainstream manufacturers which lured me in but I now know why they are cheaper. Had I appreciated I was buying from the equivalent of a low cost clothes store, I would have bought from a reputable manufacturer and paid the extra for better quality items that would last and therefore offer better value for money. Due to the low quality of the items I've bought and disinterested customer service, I will not purchase from them again nor can recommend them.

GBI ordered a cycling top which came with… I ordered a cycling top which came with a faulty zip! I emailed customer service asking for a returns label. Only to be told to email them a picture of said faulty zip so they said they could look at it. I said I wasn't able to do that but I could whatsapp them a picture. Nothing... I have emailed them again saying the item is faulty and would like a refund, Nothing for 3 weeks now.. Do not use this company is my advise.

GBWon't refund faulty products I've bought products from this company a few times and always had a good experience. However I recently purchased a pair of goggles that were faulty - they leak water and constantly steam up. I contacted the company for a return/refund and was told 'I’m afraid you can’t return non-faulty items if they’ve been used in the water.' Which makes no sense as the product is faulty and how do you test goggles if you can't use them in water. To date they have not responded to my follow up emails. I won't be using them again. Shame

GBQuality, VFM, helpful and responsive The alpkit of watersports! Good range of stock, a hell of a lot of their own items, which are of good quality and very competitively priced. Website stock levels are accurate and they don't use enticers to get you into the site, only to find out that the items arnt in stock. Some items are really great value - check out their dry bags for example. Like alpkit they can have stock problems, but they are always honest and open about it. Will continue to use for a very long time to come - unless something catastrophic happens!
