Delivered free of charge at a competitive price, ok I had to wait a few days but that's no big deal. My Stihl strimmer turned up and I think I'm going to be a happy customer, thank you.

Good morning,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

I can see your order was placed on a Saturday, meaning we would dispatch on Monday for delivery on the Tuesday, however, due to your location it looks like this took 1 day longer then expected and was delivered on the Wednesday.

I have gone ahead and refunded your next day delivery charge as an apology.

We hope to see you shopping with us again soon and apologies again for the issue.

Service was outstanding

Service was outstanding - received my purchase within 24 hours by DPD, who are also the best parcel delivery company. Communication was also spot on and received purchase and delivery instructions within minutes of ordering. The boots are also exactly what my son was looking for and more than met is expectations - they were also £30 cheaper than on another online supplier site.
Thanks so much
