Great quality and excellent value! It was easy to assemble, feels sturdy, and the adjustable height is perfect for growing kids. The large backboard really helps with shooting practice, and the stable... See more

Trampoline safety issue

Similar experience to Russell below. We bought a trampoline just over 2 years ago - very expensive!! - but thought it would last our kids for many years.
They now do not stock this trampoline now - was their own make so no-one else supplies it now either - and cannot supply a new net for it.
Soon we will have to dismantle it as will be unsafe to use it without a safety net and I can't find anywhere on line to provide me with a new one for it.
Very disappointed as this is a serious safety issue.

We always aim to provide a wide array of spares for the Skyhigh trampolines we have manufactured and generic parts for other brands.

Unfortunately on this occasion the net was made in a factory we have since ad to move on from amicably in order to pursue newer better quality designs.

We made every effort for them to supply us with additional spares for older designs but they were unwilling to assist.

We are very sorry that we were unable to provide you with the net you requested. If you cannot source a net that fits, an in ground trampoline may be an option for your model. Safety nets do not in themselves make trampolines safe, so please always follow all safety warnings that came with the trampoline to ensure safe use at all times.

Kindest regards,

Big Game Hunters

Absolutely shocking!

Absolutely shocking!
How can a company sell an £800 trampoline and a couple of years later not carry spare parts for it!!!

Hi Russell,

Thank you for your comments.

We initially received an email enquiry from you in August 2020 in regards to a net for a Skyhigh trampoline you had purchased from another retailer.

Unfortunately on this occasion the net was made in a factory we have since moved on from amicably in order to pursue new designs.

Apologies that we were unable to provide you with the net you requested on this occasion.

Kindest regards,

Received an empty box

I ordered a chess set in February which took over 3 weeks to arrive. When it did arrive I only received an empty cardboard box. I emailed them 5 days ago to ask for someone to resend it to me and have been ignored.

Extreme delay in delivery time . Ordered some cricket balls over a week…

Ordered some cricket balls over a week ago paid for the delivery as well still no news or email from the store for the same . It’s an absolute disappointment.
Though the prices are cheap .... looks like they are using a cheap mode of delivery services.

Hi,
We are very sorry that you did not receive your balls as quickly as we would usually expect. The delivery service we use (DPD) is renowned for its speed and efficiency but on the very odd occasion things can be delayed or go missing. We are very sorry that your order fell into this bracket. I can assure you that DPD is actually one of the more expensive couriers and we do take all customer complaints and delays very seriously to make sure the service is at a high standard at all times.

Thank you again for ordering from our Sports Ball Shop, we look forward to hearing from you again soon.

Good anchor kit

Fast delivery. These Trampoline anchors were used to anchor a swing.
Did the job fine, although some instructions on how to thread the tape through the clasps would be helpful.

Happy Customer

I couldn’t rate anything other than 5*, the quality of the product was fantastic and easy to put together. The service of Big Game Hunters was also 5*. I raised a query with customer service which was answered and resolved within less than an hour and also the product arrived with me within 48 hours of ordering. My little boy loves the house I am so pleased I ordered. I would certainly use this company again.

Redwood mansion playhouse…

I bought the redwood mansion playhouse for my daughters birthday. I also purchased the floor which brought the total to over £400.

Within a few days the house was absolutely saturated inside from the rain with pools of water and the door had warped. When I spoke to Big Game Hunters on the phone they refused to listen to my concerns stating “the playhouses are not waterproof and will leak, you need to get the roof felted.” The water isn’t just coming in from the roof, it’s also coming through the huge gaps in the window, again something they refused to listen to.

No where on their website does it state that the playhouse is not fit for outdoor use. On getting a quote of £300 to have the roof felted (something I cannot afford) I am now left with a playhouse and a floor which will gradually rot and will be no good.

I asked for a refund and they refused just sending a new door panel instead.

I’m extremely frustrated and upset that my daughters main birthday present is no good and that they’re selling playhouses that are not fit for outdoor use.

I will be taking the matter to the small claims court but would definitely warn others not to trust this company!

Good quality holds

Good quality holds, great price.

I bought these for my home wall, which is overhanging, They are quite small (since they're made for kids), and provide a good challenge for me, and they make great footholds for all abilities.

Delivery was quick too.

Excellent sandpit, and customer service

Excellent sandpit order and arrived quickly. Its wooden and a knot in an unfortunate place lead to a crack after a couple of uses, but this was sorted quickly with no questions asked when I raised it. Spare part arrived within 48 hours. Thanks!

I ordered Carrom board from Big Game Hunters, order delivered on time without any damages. Children are playing two hours everyday with it. Very timely and useful purchase during lockdown. None of the shops or websites had stock of it, while only big game hunters had them stock.

Poor quality basketball/poor quality customer service

Bought a basketball for my kid as Christmas present. Received a ball on 24th of December. It was poor quality (deflated the next day- never has such problem with any of balls I bought elsewhere previously).
Sent an e-mail and explained the issue- it is a month now having a conversation via e-mail. Problem wasn't been solved. On my question can we have a refund was told to inflate the ball. Was asked to send the a video if inflated ball for specialist to look at it. Now was told to send it back, so specialist can closely inspect it.
Should I have to have such issue for a £40 ball?
Ridiculous!

I ordered a cribbage set as a gift

I ordered a cribbage set as a gift . I was very pleased with the item. It came in a small cotton bag for keeping all the pieces together and all of the items were good quality for the price. My order arrived on time and I would be happy to order from this company again . .
