      I have noted that the long awaited Squires site is now operational. Only looked at it briefly but it would appear that you cannot order online, the site appears to be an onsite catalogue. Cannot see why it has been inactive for so long. I did ring the company some months ago to request a catalogue and was told rather bluntly that they were not available.

          Don't be too critical David. This is a small family firm which has been through some internal difficulties over the last few years and I for one am glad it is still in business, it was closed for a while. I am lucky in that I can visit the store easily. They are working very hard to relaunch the business at the moment with limited resources. There has never been an online ordering facility and I rather doubt at the moment if they are in a position to set this up, again due to cost and resources. Hopefully this will come about at some point in the future but we shall have to see. At least the catalogue is now online.

            Colin – I have purchased many times from them in the past including from their stand at the annual Brighton show. Their stock is extremely good and extensive. After the re-buff regarding the catalogue, I did try to purchase some brass rod from them via email and got a reply back from them asking if it was round, square etc. I provided the response but that was the last I heard. After a week or so I took by trade elsewhere and was delighted with the service provided by the other company.

              Yes they were indeed very good in the past but I think they are struggling a bit to get back on their feet. Hopefully normal service will be resumed before too long.
