Anyone used GTS clippers?
      #3489908 - 06/09/2008 14:13

I've been looking at these clippers on ebay, they look pretty heavy duty and have some great reviews.... are they work spending 89 on? I'll only be using them twice a year for a blanket clip on one horse...
Love Jules xx

rubbish- my friend got a pair last year and the clip they produced was apalling- she's very experienced and had bought them to replace hers that had being stolen- but they scalped her horse and got hot very quickly.

you'd be better paying a bit more for something like the liveryman arena imo.

They are made in China and come with very poor quality Chinese steel blades, you get what you pay for would be my only comment...
