Definitely the go-to shop for older…

Definitely the go-to shop for older guns, black powder and shooting stuff! Extremely helpful and knowledgeable and willing to share that knowledge and interest in the historical side of firearms. As someone with an interest in 19th century British long guns they have been a fantastic source of help and advice and now with my FAC no doubt a regular haunt for supplies.

The right company to buy from

First time l have been in contact with a company like Henry Krank & Co, but l wanted to make sure that l could purchase the right item when the time is right, and it appears that l should be lucky with this company, what they stock and sell would be adequate to my needs. Live fire, Blank firers, Collectables, they have it all, l can't go wrong with this company. Thankyou Henry Krank & Co. l know who l will be getting in touch with when the time is right.

Buyer Beware: Avoid the Auction

Warning to other Auction buyers: Our experience with their auction was truly terrible. After winning an item, we received no notification, no invoice, and no confirmation at all. Weeks later, the staff contacted us, falsely claiming we had been “unresponsive”. The tone of the email was full of reproof as if we were avoiding them. Totally exasperating as this was the first communication we received!

When we actually called to pay the bill, they made matters worse by being extremely rude and condescending. We asked to speak with a manager, hoping to clear things up, but she was even worse—rude, dismissive, and instead of resolving the issue, she told us they were cancelling the sale and reporting us to the-saleroom. This was shocking, especially since we were literally on the phone trying to pay.

We’ve been buying at auctions for over 15 years and never once failed to pay or been treated so poorly. Every other auction house has promptly sent an invoice by email or has called us to arrange payment. I checked and our details were correct, so no excuses. It’s incredibly frustrating when the auctioneer is clearly at fault! Maybe they need to reconsider auctioning!

Reply from Henry Krank & Co

We would like to make it clear from the start that this review is a complete fabrication of the events that unfolded.

Upon winning the lot at the auction (you will have received notification from the platform you bid on), we emailed you an invoice to request payment. After not receiving payment, we followed up with three further emails all to the same email address. You chose only to respond to the final email, in which we requested payment in a set time-period otherwise we would have to cancel your order due a breach of the T&Cs of the auction. You replied with language that was unacceptable.

Within the first 15 seconds of talking with a member of staff on the phone, you had resorted to verbal abuse and demanded to speak to a manager. Upon speaking with the manager, your abhorrent behaviour continued and the language aimed at the member of staff who had been trying to resolve the situation was nothing short of appalling. Simply put, you were not 'on the phone trying to pay', but instead on the phone to start a one-sided conflict with members of staff who were trying to help. We were quite frankly astounded, and concerned, by the escalation of anger from yourself over an issue that could have been easily resolved.

As a result of this, you have been reported to the auction platform on which you bid, and you will now have a permanent marker placed on your account so that other auctioneers can see, in detail, why you had your sale cancelled.

19th century American revolvers

After having decided to start collecting deactivated revolvers from the 19th century and particularly the American Civil War Period I found Henry Krank online. Before I decided to part with any money however I wanted to talk to someone about starting a collection, what to expect regarding deactivated guns, which I knew nothing about and many other subjects which as a novice I knew little about. I have found all of the staff informative and very helpful, always quick to answer emails and very friendly on the phone. I would recommend Henry Krank and its staff to anyone from the beginner collector like me to the experienced collector.

I have bought a lot of items from henry kranks over a few years and have had nothing but great service.
Only had one problem with an item that I purchased they took it back from me without any question and gave me a full refund which I quickly spent on something else.

Great Service!

Hi,
I wrote myself an order for powder, primers and bullets and them emailed the list to Henry Kranks.
Soon receive a confirmation email with a note telling me not to arrive at the shop before 11.00 as the powder is brought to the shop specially.
So, today I made the 40 mile trip to their shop in Pudsey.
On arrival my order was ready to pick up. After paying that is 🙂
Always a very good selection of reloading equipment and consumables and nice to look at all the wonderful things on sale in the shop.
This place is always my first stop for shooting gear.
Thanks, Ken.
