A whole lotta camper for the price!
A couple of minor things I found wrong with the camper.....
1. Small cut (1 inch) in the awning which I fixed with a bit of silicone.
2. Latch on the wooden cabin door doesn’t lock when closed (probably never gonna use it anyway).
3. Rear left stabiliser bar is hard too drop / raise.
4. My dog chewed one of the annex panels before I even unraveled it!
5. Got pulled over by the coppers on my way to get it registered (no plates but had a permit).
6. Have to park my car outside because there’s no room in the garage!
7. Work is really getting in th...Read more

Built strong and tough.
From the moment of walking in the door it was a positive experience. The staff were engaging, friendly and knew their stuff. The product sold itself and it took no time at all to decide on a Patron and I’m very excited to start planning time away with the family and begin discovering Australia.

The last Phoenix
Customer service from Shaq was outstanding, he was helpful and answered my questions timely. We only had a couple of hiccup's (not because of Shaq) with parts and wiring but overall the experience was positive. we've been away a few times now beach camping and this trailer hasn't missed a beat, tracks well behind the car in the sand too.

Dominator hasn't let us down
We bought the Black Series Dominator 3yrs ago and have done 3 decent trips in it. We've been happy with it. Had a couple of minor issues with parts such as bearings in fridge slide out and a bent pole when collapsing the tent which the guys at the warehouse replaced promptly. We've taken the Dominator off road few times and its always handled it great, I think it'll go anywhere you're game enough to take it. The one annoying thing with it though is the hook/pole-end system when attaching the awning as they're not secure and fall out multiple times when struggling with the canvas roof getting it set up. Having said that we do love our camper and planning our next trip with it. Customer service always been good and the camper is a solid unit.

Chassis issues
I have had a Blackseries Delta for 4years and finally found the time do a long planned trip across the Simpson Desert with the family. The chassis snapped in the middle of the desert. I had to leave the trailer in the desert and continue out of the desert for safety reasons. I notified Blackseries without any real concern or any help what so ever. If you have a Blackseries camper check the suspension coils for being cut to size with a grinder and the rear section of chassis for metal fatigue fractures. Thanks Blackseries for the worst experiences ever!!

If you're a single traveller, the Dominator is pretty good...
Mary, from Sydney showroom is wonderful. There was some delay with me picking up the Dominator initially, which meant I had to cancel a trip away with friends. Did the 'trial run' from South Coast New South Wales up to Far North Queensland in January this year. To say that the annex is a proverbial pain in the **** is an understatement! If you are a single traveller, and you're trying to put up the annex in the heat - forget it! They said it's easy enough for one person to erect the annex - it isn't! The annex weighs approx 42kgs! It was such a...Read more
horror having to unload it every time I stopped, I ended up packing it up and sending it back via a parcel delivery service - which cost me over $200! An option for a 'summer' light material (like that of a fold out marquee) would be helpful. I've had no after sales contact. The main frame for the tent (in the camper) is warped, which meant it was difficult to get up, and I was never able to get the tent to be 'flush'. The internal lights have been dodgy. Every time I want to use the kitchen, I have to use a screwdriver to push one of the drawers in so that it slides out.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Time to Dominator the Road....
I only used the online site throughout my buy process and found all the information I needed easily and without fuss. I was only interested in camper trailers and so found the range of products available excellent. The range offered covers all budgets ranging from entry level to high end and it appeared to me that the quality of the build was the same across the range. While I don't have children to consider I was impressed that the products offered clearly had families in mind. For myself making this purchase has been a 3 year journey with lots of research, so to settle on the Dominator as the solution for me speaks for itself I think.

the perfect match to my needs
being a single bloke have just bought a classic 12 to start my around the country trip. saw the van at the recent 4x4 show at eastern creek, the weather was lousy but Mary went through with the demonstration with great skill while trying to close things up against the rain. I was further impressed by the follow up both before delivery and after, and the run through at pick up was also very good.

njoy our knew camper over Christmas, we arrive at Melbourne showroom and one of the sales reps come out to greet us, said good as knew!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha ha ha you got to be joking the paint job on my camper was so disgusting my wife was in tears, after so many weeks of driving to and from black series, phone calls,emails etc, and the sales rep had the balls to say good as knew they should be a shamed of them selves once a again a circus, the amount of over spray on this camper it was disgusting, it was every where, and the funny thing the colours didnt match and the dents in the box were still there and in the lid as well, it felt like sand paper, so we had a crack at the boys in melbourne, my wife was asked to leave because they had other customer in the shop doing a hand over of a caravan, as we were told by the young family it was there second caravan built, the problems they had compared to ours were unbelievable, it just shows blacks series dont respect the customers the prefer to lie and show them the wrong garden path. the amount of phone calls emails to warranty didn't get a response, please leave a message, i left one it was harsh, and so many more!!!!!!!!! its been three weeks, there has been one follow up phone, to appolise that its been busy not good enough, my defect list is so long, ive asked for my money back, current affair have been notified and the same with today tonight, and both have been given stories, we have made contact with consumer affairs to help try and sort it out,Vcat have been given everything we are just waiting on a court date, cant wait to see the clowns in court. that's if we don't get our money back. our family has brought to campers off them and similar defects, what does that say for there professionalisms of a big company. i wouldn't by any off this company, they dont care. I can spend another hour going through my defect list, I wont it a warning for anyone who is in the market for a camper to double check what your buyingSimilar opinion?

Worst Customer Service I’ve Ever Had…
And had an 18 ½ week lead time. Yes, that right. Not a typo. 18 ½ weeks.
Ordered my Black Series Delta from Black Series Sydney on 13 Feb 2018
I was told in writing that I would be able to pick it up 3½ weeks later.
2 days before pick up I hadn’t heard from them so I followed up, only to be told there was a 1 week delay. I had planned to go away with it that weekend. That ruined my plans.

Shane O.asked
Hi, I have a GIC Black Series Dominator and the other day when deploying the foward fold tent the canvas caught on the tightening lug on the internal u shaped support pole as the metal top was lowering.When I saw it I stopped but too late.
The u shaped extending section bent on the left side so I need a replacement. I rang GIC brisbane where I purchased the trailer 12 months ago but no help, they did not seem to understand what I was explaining and said they could not help.
Surely replacements are available. I need someone to show they will honor their promise of after sales support, or is that just a lie, any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks, Shane.
