Verified Reviewer |Question about getting a replacement part
I need a crank arm for a Shakespeare's Intrepid spinning reel. The arm that connects to the reel body has broken.
A replacement spool for a Alfa70 large, spinning reel.
It was extremely hard to get someone to speak to. I spent about an hour on and off the phone trying to navigate the telephone prompts.
It was very frustrating but I know once I get a hold of someone at Shakespeare I use to get exactly what I want. She tried to send me a schematic of exactly the part I was processing, but I never got the email for about 20 minutes on the phone with her back-and-forth.
Im sure to correct products and if not, Ill make arrangements to return it. Its funny though that the pipes easy cheaper than the shipping and handling lol, thank you very much for everything you do for the public
User's recommendation: Just be patient and you’ll be satisfied

It's understandable that a receipt is needed for warranty. Be it Walmart or Shakespeare.
