    Have recently had an unsatisfactory service from a certain supplier and still waiting (5 months for some equipment)
    any recommendations.

    Can you clarify what kind of equipment and quantity so we can, at least, have some hope of giving useful replies?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 373 ✭✭mufflets2


    Or would anyone like to share a good experience with ordering equipment from any particular company

    ??Again ,what kind of equipment and what quantity?

    Thanks for your advice on posing the question,

    If you or anyone else could recommend a good schools sports supplier for various pieces of schools sports equipment I would be grateful.

    Different companies are better for different things. Some places will offer a discount if you buy quantities. Have you considered the lack of response has been due to your lack of clarification?

    That's me out of here.

    Anyone else?

    Is there a reason you won't answer the questions posed? I order different things from about 3 different companies and the PE teacher uses about 3 different ones depending on whats needed.

    So the answer to your question is it depends on what you require and what quantities

    Wrong forum. Forget about it

    Not really you are looking for schools sports supplier in a teacher forum I just have no idea do you want to buy footballs, sliotars, jerseys, goal posts, hurleys, badminton rackets, hulla hoops basketball hoops, etc. etc. Its a varied list

    From the opening remarks and the way they were posted onward this place feels as welcoming as a pork pie at a Jewish wedding ,
    So I withdraw my question and will find advice elsewhere.

    I think I have answered you quite politely since I joined the thread I said in our school we have 6 different suppliers depending on what us required I gave some examples of the varied things it could be so it would vary from jerseys to goal posts very different suppliers.
    I don't get what the big secret is.
    I certainly wasn't in any way rude

    its hardly unreasonable to seek further information. For all we know you could be doing market research for your new sports company.

    in general, people are very helpful here. Come off your high horse and engage with them or get up on it and ride on out of town. You cant have it every way.
