new_guyThanks, guys. I emailed that one, but haven't received a response in a few weeks' time.
Will try again.

Wendell ReichYou won't receive a reply for a while. They have stolen all the phone lins that run to Bromley.
Tracey is going back and forth to a friends house to answer e-mails.
This is the last report I have heard.
Good luck.

JohnTheGreekI have used Bromley and found their work to be mediocre at best. I will ship everything to Life-Form (who I have also used) in RSA when I hunt Zim again.
JMHO,
John

new_guyThey aren't doing any of the tanning/taxidermy... just the dipping & packing.

That sounds "par for the course."

TNJohnTracey was good to work with and the prices fair, but like John the Greek I found their work below par. Could be a number of reasons why.
This year we are going back to Life Form, no matter what.

Their dipping and packing was below par?

TNJohnThey did a little more than dip and pack, at least I thought they did the work.
The skins and horns are all in great shape, just that Eyes, lips and stitches on some heads was fair. Warthog was superb. Zebra Rug without a head? No comparison to the Life Form Zebra rug.
Just use them for dip and pack and you should be in good shape.

Brooks CarmichaelI first used Bromely Gameskin tannery in 1995 when shipping my trophies and they were excellent to deal with. All my trophies came back in good shape. I had one trophy skin that had hair slip, was not there fault. They included another cape free of charge. I could not ask for more than that.

Wendell ReichThey have bee reasonable on their fees for D&P.
I paid $100 for one Buffalo, other have paid $300 for Buffa and 3 or 4 other animals including Hippo and Croc.
I never expect any African taxidermist to do good taxidermy work.
