“I have been using hunts for many years. I have always found the reps very knowledgeable with their products, and always willing to sort out competitive prices. Now with the online ordering it’s even better, no need to wait for the telesales to answer, you can search all the products and see exactly what price you are paying instantly. Also, if the product you require is in stock, you can search yourself for alternative product. All in all a much more stress-free experience.”
