Great camper trailer

Gic Not Interested. Customer Service Non Existent
We live in country SA. Purchased an Alpha trailer at the Melbourne camping show in Aug 15, to be delivered in Feb/March 16 in Melbourne. Have had nothing but trouble since the payment was made. Delivery kept being delayed and we ended up having to drive 2,500 klm to pick up and return home. The trailer wasn't ready when we got there and we had the added expense of accommodation on the trip. That was the easy bit.
• The water tank is leaking, all fittings have been tightened, the leak is coming from the tank itself.
• The tailgate opened ...Read more

Pleasantly surprised!
Super happy! I honestly love my camper the fact that they are on the cheaper side of the scale I didn't expect a high quality product but I am pleasantly surprised! I'm incredibly fussy and I have inspected every inch of this camper and they are built very well, they're easy to setup and quite versatile and it tows beautifully behind my patrol. I am also very happy with the level of professionalism when talking to the people at Black series (GIC) (Peter Strahan they have been very helpful and friendly.
I saved for my camper but I did partiall...Read more

Very Happy Campers!
After many weeks researching Camper Trailers on line and walking through Caravan parks looking at what was on the market - we settled for a Black Series PATRON. It was very price competitive and had all the extras we wanted. Once it arrived - we found the set up very, very easy and quick. So we had our first trip on the weekend and what a great buy. It rained but plenty of room inside for a family of four to play cards/ read/ relax. We hadn't put the annex up before so wasn't sure how that would go but really quite straight forward and simple p...Read more
ole guide was fine. There is plenty of storage room for our weekend getaway's, I will say the bed is really hard, I mean really, really hard but there are ways to fix that. Thank you to Sydney Showroom for their assistance in our purchase. If you are looking for a camper these are great value, well thought out with pockets through out, zip closes to keep it bug proof everywhere and just the small things make this an excellent camper.Similar opinion?

Happy campers
We purchased our dominator in may 2016. Delivered quickly in June 2016 and was able to take it away for june long weekend trip. We love this trailer and the service we get from the Sydney guys if we have questions or warranty queries. We have had no issues with our trailer but have upgraded the jockey wheel, wiring for the fridge as we have a cfx95 which is a large one. Purchase was simple and finance easy. Highly recommended value for money.

Great camper, very versatile and quick set up times.
Hi,
Last july, my partner and i purchased a Dominator camper trailer from the Sydney show room. We are avid campers and were determined to purchase a camper that met all of our standards. We wanted a camper that had quick set up / down times, versatile so we could stay 2 nights or 2 weeks and be comfortable, was capable to travel offroad and go wherever the car went and didnt break the bank.
We have had the camper for 6 months now. And have used it regularly. It has done beach work, bush work and caravan parks with ease. We can set the main t...Read more

Have had nothing but good things to say about the new staff & management at GIC. I have the 2015 Series II Dominator and it has been through some harsh terrain and it has not missed a beat. Apart from some personal customization to the camper it has held up with flying colours. The little cosmetic issues i have had, I have been able to discuss these things with GIC and have had prompt replies by both voice & emails. Service and their support have been outstanding and i would recommend them to anyone who is looking to by an offroad camper trailer.

Poor service & bad stitching otherwise good camper!!
We have recently purchased a Black Series Alpha Camper Trailer and were very excited to head out for the first time camping to find that setting up two of the tent corners that you peg down have stitching that has come apart and ripped and we can no longer peg two corners down, this also allows water to leak into the tent. We have submitted a warranty claim that [name removed] from Sydney has approved to be fixed by our local canvas guy but on obtaining the quote he wasn't happy and has no told us to drive back to Sydney to have the repairs don...Read more
e. As we live in the Central West NSW this incurs a 6hr round trip to drop it off and then a 6hr round trip to pick it up. We are still trying to negotiate with [name removed] (which we are not getting very far) as this is not convenient or cost effective for us. The after sales service is terrible and absolutely appalling. We have to constantly make phone calls, as [name removed] does not return our calls. I love the camper but the stitching is of poor quality and having to deal with Black Series is a nightmare.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Extremely happy with my Black Series Dominator
I purchased my Dominator camper back in May 2016 and have taken it away a dozen or so times now, it hasn't failed me on any of the tracks I have been on and it tow's behind my 100 series extremely well. When I first purchased it unbeknown to me at the time I had overfilled the water tank but I thought it was leaking I called the guys up at the shop and they said drop in and they will look at it straight away, dropped in and 2 hrs later it was ready and they explained what they did and what they found which was me overfilling it. Any other questions I have had since then the guys have still been extremely helpful and if they didn't have the answer at hand they called me back not long after the call with one.

Great Camper and great customer Service
Had our Black series dominator for at least 6 months now and it has travelled alot and we are yet to fault it. A few minor issues but were easily fixed. I got a reply within 24 hours on all occasions and hassle free. This is our 2nd black series and would definitely get another.
When i purchased my last black series in 2015 the customer service wasnt the best but now in 2016 it is much much better . Im glad they have listened to their customers and made a change. Some very good people working for them now. Big thumbs up, good work guys.

Exactly what we were after.
We picked up our Black Series Phoenix end of August and found it to be exactly what we were after.
Thanks to Jade and the boys for their great assistance in showing us how quick and easy the Phoenix is to set up.
On our first weekend away we tested out all the canvas and found it created a massive undercover area.
We discovered one problem, the awning roof was too long.
I contacted GIC and they forwarded me to their canvas repair people. It was rectified in 3 days.
Thanks again to Jade, Phil and the boys for your help.
Howard and Rhonda

Great Camper !!!!!!!!!! followup to previous post---Deceitful- terrible service-so far
Finally received our Dominator and had our first trip away. For the money the Dominator is brilliant!! Build quality is very good. All fittings and construction of the trailer are very good. Canvas fit is good, stitching seems to be very good. Seasoned the canvas twice before the trip and showers during the trip showed no signs of any water getting into any seams or stitching or through canvas. All the poles supplied are strong and should take some rough handling. Only gripe with poles is where the awning poles come through into the camper ...Read more
and drop into loops. The loops are very high on the bend and the poles don't sit in very well on the angled loop. It was the first setup so it could be just how we setup. The kitchen is very good quality in my humble Male opinion-especially when you open up the gas bottle enough-my bad. Its pretty big and handles a big cook up / wash up. The pull out tray is very useful. The mattress is Hard to sleep on so a memory foam topper or replacement will be needed- but I'm getting old and soft- but that's why I bought the camper. All The doors sealed very well and the sliders are heavy duty. I had the new Waco 95 on the fridge slide fully opened and there was no sag fully loaded and its a perfect fit. The dual batteries are a treat even when only 85 % charged-- dcdc charger going in when it arrives so that will handle a full charge from my vehicle variable alternator and direct solar imput. The internal led lighting gives plenty of light.1 comment

Top camper
Big thanks to Mark, Jade, and Lex and all the staff at GIC.Top service at time of sale happy to spend time with you and answer any and all questions pickup a breeze and very helpful to get you on your way. A couple of tiny minor issues had a leaking shock contacted them and had parts sent out next day, one support leg faulty once again contacted them and once again parts sent out next day trivial issues as its not a $40k or $50k trailer. All sorted immediately and without and any hassles or dramas the after sales support was without fault.

We bought a alpha trailer in Milpera NSW. Paid deposit and after Numerous phone calls went to pick it up 5 weeks later. As we were told it was ready but when made the 4 hour drive to pick it up it wasn't even registered. Come back Monday. They said. RMS 5 minutes away. we paid the blueslip. finally 6 weeks later check came. Hopefully will never have to deal with the lying [name removed] again.

Excellent to deal with
I bought a Dominator in Sydney they were very helpful and any question I had they answered it professionally, they told me when it was going to be ready and it was on time, I had a shock absorber leak I sent an email to them and they were back in touch with me in 3 days, I then filled out a form and Lex was in touch the next day and said it will be on TNT ASAP. The Trailer is WOW it is great.
Thanks Fellas!

Stuff forgotten and broken!!
I have had my gic black series extreme commando for about 3 weeks now! Because I got the demo model I didn't get any warranty which I was fine with thinking, they wouldn't sell me it with something broken! I got it home set it up and it was missing the owning and the outside floor! Which they rectified and gave them to me! But then I went to use the tap in the sink and the pipe snapped off the tap, so I went and bought and new tap! Now 3 days before I'm ment to go away, I fill up the water tank(which is extremely hard because the hole is so sma...Read more
ll) and I test the side tap! No water comes out look down this tap is broken too! So now I'm having to buy another tap! And frankly then reason I didn't go and get them from gic is because the plastic is rubbish and will most likely break again! So I'm off the BCF to pay another. $50 for a tap! Would not recommend!!1 comment

Will keep you updated with progress
I have been trying to organise logistics of getting camper trailer across our broad continent in a timely manner, told nothing can be discussed until full payment made. Full payment made today now told we need to wait 2-3 days for it to clear before they can discuss dates??
I originally made contact with GIC back in early to mid April to organise purchase of a camper trailer, they said someone would ring me back that day, they didn't so I rang them. They said someone would get back to me that week, they didn't. So I rang them earlier this mo...Read more
nth to buy the trailer and said I needed it in WA by mid June- "no worries, we will see what we can do" was the reply. now I've paid it in full they are saying they they still need to wait for funds to clear to discuss ETA?? Really? just chasing some honest communication!! I was hoping that there would be an improvement with customer service once full payment was made. August 2nd 2016 Update: Will keep you updated - Buyer beware!

Thanks for the contact. I tried to call today but you weren't there this afternoon. ... Read more
I was sent an email on the 14th stating that it would arrive in WA on the "Looking at the end of the month to early July", so not entirely useful but an update all the same and the first communication since payment. i live in Broome and need to try and organise at least a rough date for someone (probably my dad) to pick it up when it is delivered to Perth- unless transport can be to Mandurah WA? Also wanted the unit to go to Wyndham for wedding in first week of July- hence 2 attempts to order back in April. I had also discussed with one of the sales rep when I originally placed the order that I was hoping to get the trailer to Perth by late June- this was not a problem on the phone when placing the order and then after paying the deposit I was told we could not discuss delivery until full payment was made... Hence the feedback. Please note I am not making negative comments, just stating my experience as it has happened thus far. I have documented all of my phone calls (with name, time and dates) and obviously have emails, which I think is good advice for anyone making large transactions remotely. I am still anticipating receiving a high quality, Australian built camper trailer that I will rave about for many, many years to come. Regards, ConcernedCalled GIC myself yesterday...trailer still in workshop and going on the truck next thursday to be delivered to Perthat end of July...but they did offer a free storage cover for the inconvenience.

Great trailer and good service
Hi there,
I've got the Black series Patron camper and have been very happy with as do the kids. The finish of the trailer is good and profound well off road as I've used it quiet a lot lately. I had a couple of problems with the stabiliser legs! But the crew at Black series were very quick to help get these rectified. Any time I've call you guys or emailed you have always had a quick response and is very much appreciated. I love this trailer.
