MrCetrizine Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Typically 10 days delivery. Only use them if there isn't a UK based option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveT Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Spud on this forum or Reloading Solutions = far better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummy Mark Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 I thought Midway USA were shutting down Midway UK operations?? seem to remember a post about this on here a short while back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Midway UK operate from a European Depot - they can usually advise if the product is in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnthonyR Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Midway UK operate from a European Depot - they can usually advise if the product is in stock. Not as far as I am aware, everything I have bought from them has come straight from the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrCetrizine Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 I thought Midway USA were shutting down Midway UK operations?? seem to remember a post about this on here a short while back...No, Midway US are now only dealing with Midway Europe (which includes Midway UK). Apparently they aren't dealing with independent retailers in Europe anymore. Definitely not closing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssparks2003 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 The only upside with Midway is the convienience, they show the full range of products on line (which is pretty comperhensive) and i can place an order on them anytime I like. shops should remember ease and convinence will often win out over price; if on a sunday afternoon I can pop on to the net and order those latest must have items and the just turn up at my door i wont mind spending an extra pound or two, I've not used Spud as yet so could not comment on the other hand i have tried reloading solutions as was not impressed; website was out of date, no online ordering, their downloadable price list was more out of date than loon pants and space hoppers also they don't open Saturdays which to be fair is one of two days in a week that most working people can go to the shops.

1967spud Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 we had better change that one simon lol i will take orders over the phone 7 days a week up un till 10 pm and online 24 7365 the only time i dont ansa but i make sure the wife is here is when i am either out foxing or shooting away from home in fact i took three orders on christmas day (over the phone i might add) not many uk based suppliers can say that i must admit i dont do a ownloadable price list but all items and there over 1500 on the website atm are priced unless they are section 5 or special order try it you might just like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brillo Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Spud is thoroughly recommended. If he ain't got it he generally gets it pretty damn quick. Great service and realistic postage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamp Donkey Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 Great postage from spud. Especially if you have a birthday coming up for a nipper, think 'pass the parcel' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will0 Posted February 5, 2014 Report Share Posted February 5, 2014 +1 on Spud's service. Replies to emails / PM's lightning fast. Certainly didn't get that when I emailed midway a few years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently bought stainless pins from JDReloadings cheaper than anyone else postage at cost Tumblers at best UK price too. I can only comment on my dealings which was good compared to alot that trade on Forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner Posted February 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 Spud on this forum or Reloading Solutions = far better option. I use both ! Only difference is spud is litterally throwing the stuff at you before you have even had time to write a cheaque it came in two days ! Also phoned midway today just to ask what the dilivery times like and the fella said 5-7 working days! Weel see! And it does come from the states not the Europe branch !
