Brent Bartman Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 I have a : Gloomis GLX missing about 3 eyes. Gloomis IMX Broken Tip Gloomis NRX Broken in half about 1st eye How is Gloomis with there replacement/Repair program anyone tell me there experiences with it? Quote
Super User fishnkamp Posted January 9, 2017 Super User Posted January 9, 2017 i used it years ago but that was before Shimano got involved. My best suggestion is to contact your local dealer if you have one. If you do not have a local dealer, than I would call G Loomis directly. When I had a broken GL3 rod my local dealer charged me like $75 dollars and handed me a new rod. They then dealt with getting their rod replacement. Now I am not sure about the cost, it was at least 3 years ago and it could have been less. Quote
Fishin' Fool Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Research the Xpeditor program they have. I replaced a broken IMX rod for $75. I want to say with your NRX rod you get one free replacement. I'm not sure if you need the original purchase receipts for that. Quote
Kidflex Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Don't bother with the expiditor program. Just send them in for warranty replacement. I've never had an issue or been questioned. I sent a glx cbr missing 4 ft of the rod, and imx 844 mbr with a cracked guide ring. And multiple Shimano rods and they've been replaced no questions asked. Never had receipts either. They still have the best service imo. Quote
bigfruits Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 if repair/replace doesn't fall under the warranty, I can tell you that Expeditor is hassle free. Ive had to use it twice. They ship first! Quote
Super User Jig Man Posted January 9, 2017 Super User Posted January 9, 2017 The last time I used Expeditor it cost $100 but was fast and operator error not warranty because they don't warranty stupid. 2 Quote
lonnie g Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 my cousin owns g loomis rods. said he had one break he sent it in. they replaced it, no problem. it did cost him shipping Quote
Kidflex Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 They don't question it. U fill out the paperwork. Send rod in. Wait. Get new rod. It's really that simple. The imx mbr I sent was very old, had a weibe reel seat. I wrote on the form, I don't know what happend to the guides. Just noticed some were cracked. No problems. Quote
carlm01 Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Broke a brand new IMX over the summer that I had bought online cost 100.00 they sent the new one I sent back the old one free of charge in the old tube ... Couldn't complain it was my fault ..... Quote
