Update... I've called... No answer. Text... No answer. Email.... No Answer.
I'm guessing combro is no more? Sad because Robin has always been spot on in the past.

That can't be good. Like I say I emailed and called using the numbers from his website. Nothing came back.

I did read something about him having to wait before he put the new model out but had all the bits ready to I cant remember the full reason but I read it after someone was asking the same about him doing a repair

Why are you ignoring me?
Are you sending emails and texts but not getting a reply? Robin has never sent a text in his life and is probably too old to learn. To get your emails white listed by our spam filter use words like cb-625 chronoscope and airgun. Perhaps you cannot receive replies. When emailing to complain about not getting a reply why not include a telephone number or a postal address? If in doubt, 'phone 01323 899950.

I copied the above off his website if its of any use..

hope he is still in business I'll admit to shooting 2 of mine up over the years

I had it all planned out, unregister for VAT, sell the remaining stock, buy tools and materials for a new improved model.

I unregistered at the HMCE web site, effective 5/4/20

I then sold £22k worth of chronoscopes

I went to fill in my last VAT return and they had forgotten I had unregistered.

I rang them up. She said, no problem, fill in the form and tell them to unregister you as of 31/3/20 or you will have to do all of April.

Okay says I and made a huge mistake by doing what she told me to do.

They unregistered me as of 5/7/20. Meaning I had to pay them £4k of my £22k but I could not reclaim the VAT on the tooling.

Since then I ring them up, they tell me all I have to do is write in and they will fix it. Then I wait 5 weeks to be told they cannot do it.

I have piles of chronoscopes but bu66ered if i will sell them until this is sorted out and I am VAT unregistered.

My accountant thinks he may have better luck, he's having a go.

I think there is a problem with the new HMCE computer, if I could prove I had unregistered they would allow it.

I could go on...

Got him on the land line number above. All is well and he's still servicing and repairing them 😀

Got mine back from Robin 2 weeks ago. Standard charge for excellent service. Says on his website he never answers emails
