BoardgameExtras to the rescue :)
After being let down for the third time by Zatu, Boardgame extras came to the rescue.
They sent my copy of the Shining Trapezohedral Cthulhu Wars tokens within 2 days.
I cannot praise them enough for the quick turnround and excellent communication.
My next order will follow soon..
Excellent service
Excellent service, I ordered Spruance Leader and was a little unsure about the company as they were selling much cheaper than others. Game arrived very quickly, well packaged and exactly as advertised. Will deffinitely use again.
quick and good value
I bought a bunch of card sleeves as I received the notification that the ones I was after were back in stock. They have a good variof card sleeves and very competitive price. maybe the only downside is the delivery fee quotation that goes up each article you add, not very based on weight/size of the package as it would be for any couriers, which can make it expensive for something light/small.
Anyway, the delivery was very quick considering the delays from the courier and near the Christmas time. the package didn't arrive in good condition as the courier squeezed it through the door rather than knock and hand it over as fatter than a letter, but luckily as the content is not fragile was not affected.
Retro website with super efficient customer service
I was really impressed with this company - though their website looks basic, it is easy to navigate and order through. My order was dealt with very efficiently, having ordered Wednesday evening it arrived Friday morning (despite estimate of 3-7 days in the very busy Christmas period).
In particular, I had to email as I ordered with the wrong delivery address (autocorrect & PayPal, I usually double check!), and I got a reply from Ruth first thing Thursday morning to say they’d amended it for me.
I’m really pleased we went with this company, they manage to keep their prices competitive but I’d gladly pay a bit more to support a smaller business with such great customer service. It’s such a relief to have an individual reply directly rather than being fed through the circular reasoning of a bot!
First Order
Firstly I have to admit I was a little skeptical about ordering from this site as it doesn't look the most professional (no offence intended), but as everything was so cheap I thought I would take a chance, and I'm so glad I did. I was blown away with my experience. They had EXACTLY what I need at a fantastic price, and my order was dealt with and delivered the next day!! Massively impressive, and a great first impression. I can't recommend them enough. Thanks guys.
Carcassonne Big Box purchase review
Ordered on Sunday, arrived Tuesday. Great service. Great price, amazon had it a little cheaper but in Italian language, but in these tough times we need to help the little guys out there so swerved amazon and ordered from these chaps - glad I did and I'll be looking through and ordering more in future. Many thanks.
Great Games website, Very Retro website (but retros cool right?)
If I am honest when first loading the website I did pause for concern, but I had great value and a great responsive service.
I ordered an expansion for Quacks of Quedlinburg which was a great price, cheaper than Amazon. For new it was priced at the same value as other website "B" version (where the cellophane or box may be damaged) But came with no damage or issue.
Was ordered with 2-day delivery, wanted before going on holiday, came on time with no issues.
Despite the Websites Retro look being a bit out of place compared to other sites, the website is easy to get around and use.
The stock count updates immediately after order, something that doesn't always happen on other sites where I have later received out of stock emails after payment.
Plus the website reminds me of my childhood which is nice

Despite the not too encouraging design of the website (sorry, I understand it might be a personal preference, but nowadays it looks... different :)) this is a very reliable company with immediate dispatch, I am very pleased with the sleeves and the service. Thank you!
Great service and prices
Always order my card sleeves from them. Don't be thrown off by the dated design of the website. Great prices and delivery times! I had an issue with an order that the sales manager handled immediately and sent me a replacement. Very pleasant experience and never had to wait for anything. Highly recommended!

I purchased some stormtroopers at the cheapest price on the internet including postage. The item was sent the same day and I received it within the week I ordered it. Brilliant prices and brilliant service to match, I recommend everyone to use this company for everything to do with tabletop games.
Had a product arrive damaged - no bother!
Had a product arrive damaged. Messaged Andrew and he is sending a replacement straight away 1st class post. I've ordered a number of things from here over the years and the customer service and value is always great. Highly recommended
Great business with excellent service
Great business with excellent service. Orders always come promptly and their customer service via email when I wanted to add an extra item to a purchase was superb.
Good price and great service
Got tempted to try a new game and Board Game Extras had the cheapest price I could see, and also a wide range of add-ons and expansions in stock. Game arrived next day after ordering and I didn't even pick the express delivery option - impressive! Will be making more purchases with them, I'm sure.
Great service!
I was looking for a specific game (Rivals for Catan) which isn’t manufactured anymore and seemed to be extremely hard to find. Board game extras had it, it was a good price and was delivered within a couple of days. Very impressed by the service!
Great Company
Great company offering low prices and good stock levels.
Brilliant customer services - informed me and apologised when an item I'd ordered was going to be delayed slightly. The human touch goes a long way!
No complaints at all and will definitely be ordering with them again.
