Hi I finally signed up after a while of just lurking around.

My names Justin Jones from F R Jones and Son we are machinery and tool dealers in South East London, but have a large database of customers from all over the UK through our website. We also have stands at Saltex and all the Arb shows as well as our own show in kent once a year.

 

It will take me a short while to get the hang of this forum, but I'm no virgin as I'm on Arbtalk every day and with over 3000 post on there the wife's going to do one when she finds out I've found another. lol

 

If you have any questions or banter to throw my way fell free, I'm not here to hard sell anything just join in and see things from your side of the fence.

    Great that your on board - the more the merrier. I bought some Haix boots from you this month and your service was spot on. Thank you.
  • Jonesie @ frjonesandson.co.uk March 26, 2011 at 4:15pm

    Cheers, glad you like them one of the best boots out there, we all learnt years ago most of our staff wear them now and get about 2 years out of them everything else we tried lasted less than a year.

    Hi Justin, good to see you here. I got a Masport mower from you last year no problems with the service at all and a good price.

     

    Maybe you can let us have any sneak previews of special offers etc?  ;)

    Justin, that's great you have taken the time and trouble to join.

     

    The business name is well known to a lot of us on here (especially those in the South East) and I hope we all benefit (both ways) from having input from businesses such as F R Jones and Sons.

     

    Perhaps you can look to Blog as well to keep us updated on equipment, news, offers etc ?

    Great company! (feel free to offer a discount next time im in shop!) lol

  • Steve Sonic Grounds Maintenance March 26, 2011 at 7:52pm
    Perhaps you can let me know on any offers for a 4 wheeled pro lawnflite you have?

    Hi Justin

    Good to have a dealer on here. Can I throw you in at the deep end ?

    By coinsidence we'll be ordering a new Hayter Pro or Masport from you very soon but before deciding I have an issue with the drive on a Masport RRSP 22" purchased last spring (not from you) and returned to the supplying dealer four times in one season for the same fault - a seized rear roller. Masport don't respond to my emails, the importers refer me to the supplying dealer who in turn are very uncooperative. We are otherwise very happy with the machine and my operators report that it is far superior to the Hayter.  That said we're reluctant to buy another Masport if this issue repeats on a new machine.  I'm convinced a very slack inner drive chain is coming adrift but need some technical advice, I can fix the problem myself once I know the cause. Can you or one of your mechanics assist  ?

    Cheers all, I'll have a word with the guys in the workshop about the Masport and let you know. We sold a lot of them last year with no problems, so I hope your was a one off.

    Just a heads up the Lawnflight Pro machines will be going up when the next stock is in, this is due to the £ / yen

    We have plenty of the HRS553-PRO in at the moment, but the importers have none so the next delivery will have a price increase.
