Tackle Warehouse Wishlist-Less 2024


fishing user avatarChoporoz reply : 

Good or bad....I go back and forth on this daily  :)


fishing user avatarFelixone reply : 

I suppose Amazon has spoiled me with this, but I love a wishlist.  For me it makes it easy to let my family know what I want when they are gift shopping, and ensures I get what I want or need.  This becomes especially convenient when talking tackle.  It is much easier to share my wishlist with my wife than tell her I want a specific bait in a specific color or weight.

 

This doesn't even touch on the convenience of being able to spend a couple days researching and putting together a purchase.  Just recently I was looking to make a tackle purchase.  I built my cart on TW, only to get called away.  By the time I got back the cart was gone.  I was frustrated enough that I actually purchased those items from another vendor.  If I can't get a wish list then at least allow the cart to last longer than it currently does (say 1 day).  I understand that this is an additional load on their infrastructure, but I have to wonder how many other sales they have lost out on.

To be honest it gets me pretty upset!  Also another thing they do is when something is not in stock anymore it disappears from the website.  I bought a Damiki Dark Angel rod and went back to submit a review and they took the rods off the site!


fishing user avatarCatch and Grease reply : 

I'd love for them to get a wish list....


fishing user avatarwoolleyfooley reply : 

I say bad. My last order was a few hundred dollars and I left it for a night. Went to place the order the next day and it was gone. Now I just take a screenshot of my shopping cart :)

Amazon carries a few spinnerbaits I can't find the Mann's classic double Colorado 1/4oz gold. This is getting harder to find. I need to fill up a box of these too.

I just use a pad and pen.


fishing user avatarEmersonFish reply : 

I'm always taking pictures of my computer screen with my cell phone so I remember things, but that doesn't save my work. Seems like a wish-list would be a nice addition.

Perhaps they have legitimate reasons not to do it. Maybe they think people would be more inclined to order less often, waiting until their list reached a certain amount to save on shipping? Maybe they believe people would be more likely to leave the site and price shop items that they might have went ahead and ordered if it were convenient to do so? I'm just thinking out loud. More likely it's a pain in the neck on the technical side.


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

Why not just take a screen shot?  seems easier than digging out your phone to take a pic.

fishing user avatarMaster Bait'r reply : 

I would definitely like to have a wish list.  Just being able to put it all in one place and keep it as a clickable list would be KEY.


fishing user avatarprimetime reply : 

The Thing I love the Most about Tackle Warehouse and the main reason I order from them is obviously the selection and specialty to bass fishing, but more importantly, I find that the reviews for products to be 100% honest, unfiltered, and it seems the average customer who comments is a bit more educated on fishing than other websites. I can't stand reading.... "Best lure ever, caught a 4lber first cast."...

 

I think that leaving feedback for companies is a huge way to help with future business, and if you feel a lure does not do what it says, it is alway's best to be honest,  and can give valid reasons (IE. Lure did not suspend on 14lb test mono, warm weather, however adding a Larger Hook or adding 1 suspend dot did the job"...I have ordered alot of good lures and line based on reviews where I could tell the customer knew what he was talking about and used the lure more than 1x. I like to give feedback on a new lure after a few trips, and have found some awesome "odd baits and brands" from reading reviews.....

 

I am dying to get on that site right now and order every color of the Ima Skimmer, New Evolve Hardbaits which I have heard great things about, and I have to get my hands on this Jackall Boil Topwater.....and I want to try some new suspending jerkbaits from a new Japanese company like Evergreen as I love trying new stuff...Tackle Warehouse always gets me...$50 is my target, and I end up struggling to get it under $100 when I realize I need line, weights, accessories, and nobody beats them for having an organized site to find anything.....Got off topic as usuall, but I don't like wish lists, they cause me to overspend....

I believe that rod has been discontinued...or TW isn't carrying them anymore.  They were in the clearance section for awhile.   They do keep out of stock items on the site, often with a date listed of when they expect it to be restocked.  

 

I wish they had a wish list or a way to save your cart.  It can sometimes be a pain to go back and find everything you had added to your cart.


fishing user avatarABW reply : 

There's a program I use to screenshot the computer screen. It's called lightshot. All you have to do is press prntscr on your keyboard, and go over the area you want to screenshot.


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

Or you can just hit alt-print screen, lol.

In my case, my phone is always with me (basically stuck to my hand). Between work, home, and my laptop, I never know what computer I'll be on. I suppose I could "print" the screenshot and carry a piece of paper around, or email it to myself. I'd rather just have a pic that I always have with me and can reference when I'm at the store or wherever. But hey; I confess to not knowing how to do a "screenshot" before. I'm learning new things every day.
fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

I hear you.  My keyboard is always attached to my computer. ;)


fishing user avatarMichael F reply : 

I just started to write down everything I wanted because of this. Takes a little bit longer but what can you do about it.

Not that I think I'd ever do it, but... how do you do it?  Man, I'm a paper & pencil guy too!

This simply just isn't true. Tackle Warehouse always keeps items out of stock still on their site, it will either show "Out" under the quantity in stock, or it will show an expected arrival date of that product to come back in. 

 

 Only items that have been discontinued and that they no longer have in stock do they actually take off of the site. 

 

 

  No wishlist doesn't bother me personally, I keep my computer with a bunch of browsers of products I want all open, OR if I plan to shut the computer off, a simple screen shot and saving it as a GIF on my desktop works.

Use PRINT SCREEN. It  is easier.


fishing user avatarbstephenson1225 reply : 

Was just complaining about this today to my wife. It would be nice to be able to add things on a  list and then place a large order. I'm horrible and always forget something I needed because my wife likes throwing my list away when she finds it.  

 


fishing user avatarMontanaro reply : 

My girlfriend mentioned that she spent so much money on a makeup website that she is now a preferred customer and gets early access and exclusive events.

Wish TW had this


fishing user avatarClackerBuzz reply : 

Microsoft windows comes with a Snipping Tool under ur accessories folder. I use it for alot b/c you can crop the image and not include all the personal info on ur desktop


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

OE, Alt -PrtScr and paste into Word or Paint.


fishing user avatarOkobojiEagle reply : 

... and "paste" is the same as "copy"?

fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

Paste is what you do after you "copy," which is what you did when you took the screen capture with Alt - PrtScr.  Ctrl-v would be the shortcut for pasting what you copied.

fishing user avatarFelix77 reply : 

I always wished they had a wishlist.  BassPro does and I enjoy saving stuff on there for future reference.


fishing user avatarfishballer06 reply : 

A wishlist would be nice, but I normally keep a Post-It note book beside my computer that I write down what all I need on, that way I can get everything I need on each order. 


fishing user avatarRusty Shackleford reply : 

I keep an Excel database of all my lures, what I need, what has been lost/needs to be replaced, etc...
