| I had the pleasure of meeting Karl in Blackpool at the Matchplay. Karl is a true gentleman and a man of his word. My mates and myself togged ourselves out with white t-shirts with 180 on the front . It was suggested to us to put an A in front of the 180 to make A180 (for the TV cameras) . We all duly obliged. Karl in his own words offered to "get the ale in". We declined this offer as the Ale was well and truly in!!!. I was chatting to Karl and he said if I contacted him later he would sort me out with a "Chissy Shirt". Now I thought the "ale was in". This morning I was awoke with the postman. I was given my "Chissy Shirt" signed and some dart flights. My daughter will be popular today because along with leaflets I give her the flights as well. The lads in her class are mad into the darts. So Karl not only have you made me a happy bunny but some young lads as well. Thank you my dear man, so folks the only thing I can say is support Karl and his business because in today's society it is nice to deal with somebody that offers that personal touch. :-) |

| Guys.. get this. Karl is a Lawn Bowls player ok, yet his dad who started it all 36-37 years ago was County head of News of the World! If it wasnt for Dave Holden, A180 more than likely would never be. Dave kindly sent me alot of his NOTW Programs (see them on my site under misc). Having said that Karl will be anywhere & everywhere to promote darts (epecially youth) & where ever he can, he will pay a player (ONLY if its Sky etc) to wear his patch for thier match. So there is more to Karl, Dawn and the staff than you guys see/hear. I would REALLY appreciate it if you guys could go to the site and POST A REVIEW on all the items you purchased from A180! Its always warming for karl to get a feed into the shop via a computer that a review needs to be authorised. This way, the review is authorised, karl is happy to see that people have purchased it (as he hasnt got enough time to keep track of everything/one) and more potenial buyers will read reviews & learn about the items. |

| went and saw Karl this weekend at a180, ive gotten to know karl over the last few years through shopping at a180 and at darts tournements, wheather seeing him at PDC majors or just local tournies, he is a very polite and has lots of time to come over and say hello and thats away from the shop, in the shop he is happy when you are happy and will help you out and let you try any darts he can till you think you have found a suitable set, I can't speak highly enough of this fella, a great person ive gotten to know a bit better over recent years |

| I hear nothing but good things about A180 and Karl. This is evident in the fact that A180 holds a demanding 1st place ranking in the Shops Summary table HERE and his customer service rating trumps the rest. Cheers to A180 for outstanding service and customer relations |

| A180 just hit one out of the park for me.
Received a package from them today. Lightning fast shipping.
Ordered on Sep 22 which was a Saturday. So they didn't even get to my order until Monday.
Had it in my hands 7 days later, which is pretty good for overseas shipping.
Bought a bunch of bits on clearance. Flights, stems, etc..
Order was perfect. Once again, very happy with A180. +1 all the way across the board. |

No shop table Anyway what I suggest as A180 cant see the reviews and thank you's etc is that if anyone logs onto the site, review a product or products they have purchased. Mind you though, can only review the item you purchased once. The more reviews the better |

| Cant and wont go to anyone else. Myself and the family were traveling home to Ireland last May to get my daughter baptized and stopped in Liverpool for a couple of days, i called Karl from the hotel( as arranged a couple of weeks earlier) he came and picked me up we drove back to the shop chatting all the way, while in the shop he made a cuppa, walk around the shop, in the back, up the stairs, got the tour, i picked up orders for the lads here and some stuff for meself,(i was like a kid in a candy store) Karl gave me a great deal as usual, i got to meet Dave and Dawn, (Dad & his Missus) he also gave me a dart shirt for my daughter, (shes now 7 months, i cant wait till it fits her) on the way back we dropped into Ste Buntings house, the offer was there to stay have a beer and watch the FA cup final but wanted to get back to the wife and little one, anyway, top shop, top people, top service =100% satisfaction.... |

More than likely - they did a similar thing with some Sigma's not too long ago. I can't remember the offer but it was either £20 or £30 off - go to the page to order some and found it was only the 18g version, not the 22g ones I wanted which were the normal price |

| I found darts on ebay and it ended up that I was dealing with A180 and I am sure glad. He answered every email sent promptly and when I won the bid the darts were shipped here to canada the next day. I received them in less then two weeks and they are fantastic!. The price i paid is less then half of his advertised price on his site so it was a great deal. In fact I was so impressed with the service I just placed another order today. The darts that i received off of ebay i have gone back in and wrote a review for them on A180s site. they were unicorn Phil Taylor Hero darts and they are awesome!! thank you A180! |

| Swapped a couple emails with A180 today. They got back to me right away both times and even offered me a considerable deal on some darts I wanted to order. I absolutely LOVE how they treat good, returning customers.
Once again, top notch customer service from Karl and the gang at A180. Look forward to ordering later tonight.
+1's all the way across the board from me. |

| Just a quick question about A180.. I put in an order on Saturday and it shows in my orers list as they received it. So will they post when it is mailed or will they just send it. Either way I can't wait.. this ordering darts from them can become addictive lol.

Brad If you ordered on a Saturday most likely it went out 1st thing Monday morning and is already headed your way. I think they take the weekends off? |

| Once again, A180 came through with top notch service. Ordered 2 sets of darts just 6 days ago. Had them in my hands today. Some of the fastest and cheapest delivery to the states. They even installed some Storm points for me on the house. Love, love A180. Perfect across the board again. Service, delivery, packaging. All top notch. +1's again. |

| Great to hear, and I will be making my first visit to the shop this week for a new board after only just realising I could literally walk there!
Just shows you can get stuck in the rut, always automatically used Puredarts out of convenience, not that there is anything wrong with Puredarts these days.
I will see how my visit goes and let you all know. |

| Well after reading all the good reviews and experiences about A180, I went today for me new board. I was also offered a set of darts at a price I couldn't refuse. So this is from an actual visit rather than online order: Price - 10/10. No complaints with the items I looked at. Selection - Aside from 1 specialist item, everything I looked for and asked about was there. The shop is stocked from floor to roof with great darts, accessories, boards and memorabilia and while there is loads of stock in the relatively small shop it is clean and tidy. Website - N/A S&H - N/A Postage ($, £, €) - N/A Customer Service - 10/10 Again, no complaints, the member of staff answered any questions i had, let me try out any darts i wanted to and found a discontinued dart board for me in the store room, now thats customer service for ya! Addtl Comments - Great selection, good prices and very knowledgeable, helpful staff. Can't fault A180. 10/10 all around from me. Here's a video of the shop from a couple of years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3cFrH4nvGQ |
