Huge shoutout to Kate and Neil for an amazing online shopping experience. I didn’t expect such a personal touch when ordering records online, but these guys went above and beyond.
From start to finish, the service felt thoughtful - great communication, careful packaging and handwritten note - it’s clear they genuinely care about what they do. And when there was a minor issue, they were so quick to rectify it, even though it was a Father’s Day Sunday.
So massive thanks and congratulations to the team, you’ve definitely gained a repeat customer. Highly recommend!
