Thank you very much for your positive feedback. It's lovely to hear we offer great quality covers and service :-)
Gets my 'stamp' of approval!
Lovely company to deal with, very friendly and helpful. I am not a consistent stamp collector, I just go for those issues that resonate with my interests and loves. The recent King Arthur set is stunning and I am so pleased with it. The quality is always excellent and they are honest in their dealings. If an issue is not of the very highest standard they say so in the catalogue so nobody can complain.

Always good service from Buckingham Covers
I'm always delighted with the covers I buy from Buckingham covers. they are usually dispatched very soon after the date of issue of the cover on pre-ordered covers. Orders for other covers, if in stock, are sent out at once. Emails are answered very speedily, and staff are always pleasant when speaking on the telephone. The covers are of very high quality with lovely designs.

Thank you very much for your feedback. I am sorry to hear you are disappointed not knowing when you will receive the signed covers you have ordered. We do our very best to schedule an estimated date for despatch for all items that are in production, but this is only a guide as we can never be sure how long it will take for a celebrity to sign and return the covers back to us. If you would like an estimated delivery date please email betty@buckinghamcovers.com with the details of your order and we will do our very best to answer any questions you may have.

Buckingham Covers trading status
I have reason to believe that Buckingham Covers has ceased trading.
I live in Folkestone and been a customer of Buckingham Covers and its original business for many years as both a collector and commissioning customer.
