I'd give you a review if I'd have received my order. But I haven't yet and it's been over a week since placing the order for 'next day delivery,'.
Maybe you requested this review prematurely.

Great service
I purchased a 2gang switch to be delivered. When it arrived it wasn't what I expected, so I returned it to A CEF branch where they returned it for me. I have now received a full refund, Great service. I also purchased a new switch from the branch to replace the returned item.
