Has Anybody in Australia bought any picks from http://www.gadgetsdirect.com.au/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=160&gclid=CLOYuJqou5oCFRo-awodHRi-cw ??

They sell all sorts from manual picks to manual and electric pick guns so just wondering if anybody has bought from them in Australia and what your experience etc was like and legality etc?

Cheers

John

Welcome to the forums....

Oh wait, you have been registered since 2005.. I'm confused now...

So, are you spam or commercial marketing?

So, in about 4 years, this is your first post? Seems kinda odd... :| But than again, I am odd as well. :lol:

And no, I personally have never ordered from that website, but I am sure some other Aussie's will chime in soon.

Dunno, I don't use pick guns. I personally consider them the "easy way out" and they also require a skill set... One I don't care to know as I can pick. :)

I buy my stuff from a local locksmith supply shop.
