Out of business?
Out of business?? Shop is no longer there despite the sign still there, no answer on the phones.Surely a notice on the website would have been the bare minimum?

Resposta de Gym RatZ Gym Equipment
Hi Karl,
No we're not out of business.
During the "events" over the last 2 years starting with the lockdowns and gym closures worldwide our shop was stripped of stock and suppliers were unable to provide reliable source of any kind of equipment so as an intermediate stop-gap we used the empty shop-front to sell personal antiques, effects and artifacts (easier than "MarketPlace" or Car Boot Sales that also ceased to exist for a long time);
As it happened the demand for fitness and gym equipment declined and many suppliers still struggle to get stock whereas at least we currently maintain a footfall with local customers coming in to browse Deb's shop of hidden treasures.
Deb, (GymRatz founding partner along with myself way back in 1999) is in the shop most days but limited hours so she's often on hand to assist with gym/fitness enquiries. If she can't get to the phone it's re-routed to myself, usually out and about but if you had left a message I would have called back... I was also in the shop this-afternoon and we had a number of phone callers that were either silent or callers didn't leave a message.
Did you use the contact form on the website? If you had I would have replied.
There was a the chap bobbing around outside the shop looking confused but didn't come in to ask about our somewhat unusual highstreet presence... We still have a demonstration WaterRower in the shop.
Thankyou for coming to TrustPilot to give me a chance to explain the situation but we are ABSOLUTELY NOT "out of business" and still sourcing equipment for customers but it's no longer a straight-forward operation, but leaving a 1-Star review given that you haven't even used our services isn't really appropriate. Perhaps the chap I spent 30 minutes on the phone to yesterday helping him with problems he was having with ForceUSA equipment that he'd purchased from ForceUSA who really do appear to have gone out of business might tell a different story!
Leave a message and you'll get a reply... just like you have on here.
Just please don't use a hotmail account!
Cheers
Pete
