I assume its because they are waiting for the combs, but will follow them up if I haven't got it within a week.

These combs must be very good.

Post by: gerry on July 08, 2003, 12:57:39 PM: Yep, I'm still waiting too - however by the amount of fluff on Rigsby I'd be lucky to get it through his coat at the moment!

Post by: NinaW on July 08, 2003, 05:26:17 PM: Sorry for being a daft Norwegian ;D, but spratts 76 what does it looks like? Over here the Spratts 73 has always been known as the Spaniel comb, so now I wonder what I have missed out, by not having a no 76.

I have a 73 aswell - hehe I have a "toolbox" instead of a grooming kit lol ;D - I think the only differnce is that the 73 has a handle whereas the 76 doesn't - look at the pictures and you'll see what i mean ;D I'm not the best at explaining things ;D

Post by: Jane S on July 08, 2003, 09:47:55 PM: Yes the 73 & 76 are the same comb, it's just one has a handle & the other doesn't. I find it easier to work with the 76 myself but others prefer a comb with a handle - whatever works best for you ;)

Post by: metpol fan on July 09, 2003, 11:29:17 AM: well i wondered what you lot were on a bit, because a woman at our club said she used a no 7, she must have said 76 clean my ears out next time ::)and at that time i thought whats that then?
so i went to dog club last night and i borrowed one from someone with a cocker so i can take all that excess hair out that is sticking up, did a bit last night and it looks much better all ready, i will have a nice sleek looking Buffy instead of a hairy mutt ;D

Post by: Mike on July 10, 2003, 01:32:51 PM: The funny thing is, we went to the Diamond Edge stall at Windsor, and they had a spratts comb out on display. I guess that doesnt mean they necessarily had any in stock though :(

There were many other stalls though that had dog grooming equipment - if you can go to a show, it's well worth it just for what you can buy there :)

Post by: LeeC on July 15, 2003, 11:47:37 PM: For everyone waiting for a Spratts 76, Diamond Edge have informed me that there has been a problem with the machine that makes the combs, then a problem at the platers. They hope to have the combs within a couple of weeks.
