Lovely server poor delivery service

The lady that served me was lovely and very helpful. What went wrong is I still only have part of my order after 2 weeks and when I asked how long was given a number for me to call , surely that’s your job to tell me where my order is ?

Friendly store staff

The delivery to the store took a couple of days longer than I was expecting (I'm too used to next day delivery!), but I was kept well informed, and I prefer to buy from an actual shop.
The staff were very friendly and personable when I collected the DVD.

Fantastic Product and Service

We purchased the retro record player and it arrived very quickly and safely delivered by a courier. Works as described and looks great and sounds great. It was a birthday present and my daughter is chuffed to bits.
