Someone messed with the package.

Leaving a complaint about the package, looks like it's been stepped on and there's no inventory list in it.. and axe shaft just fell of the packaging.. and we found only one axe wedge (of course I'm not entirely sure was there supposed to be just one.. I was expecting two), of course only the lack of inventory list and not making sturdy enough package is Cwm:s fault. Plus I am not able to sign up in CWM page.

Hi,
Thank you for your review. I am sorry to see you are disappointed. Our shop only has replica products so it should have been clear it is not an original, also on the picture you can see it is not an original. I see you have not contacted customer service. I will send you an e-mail to check if you have a malfunctioning one. If that is the case you will receive a free return label.

Where to start

Where to start, First there was supposed to be immediate despatch, this FAILED, then the documentation was incorrect, which held it up at Customs, Then delivery issues, and now to find only half a tent has been supplied, and as for trying to contact these people- its a nightmare, Bots here there and everywhere. SO difficult to get a straight answer to anything slightly different.

Thank you for your valuable feedback. I am sorry that our bot causes you confusion. Conversations with our bot are always forwarded to our customer service - so they serve to gather information beforehand. We will discuss within our team how we could improve this.

We have already been in touch with you regarding your order. The missing piece should be delivered next week, after which, as discussed, we will sent you some compensation for the inconvenience caused.

In the meantime, we have corrected the documentation supplied with our tents, to avoid customs trouble in future.

Sword was defective

I ordered the Feltwell sword replica. The blade has a bend in it and is twisted at the tip. I asked to exchange it but my two e-mails were ignored. I asked the payment handler (PayPal) to step in and the seller offered a return if I pay the return costs. This breaches the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which state that the seller is obliged to pay costs of return if the item is defective.

Hi Daniel,

thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately, indeed, you have not received a timely reply, for which we did and do apologise. In response to the Paypal dispute you opened, we sent you a return link with which you can return the sword for free.

Paypal has thereafter asked you to return the item, which is an automatic procedure, not specifying that we cover the return costs.

Have you received our response and were you able to create the free return? Please do contact us if you have any trouble in this process.

Item damaged due to poor packing, refund policy is useless. Avoid.

Sword was very poorly packed in a far too large box with almost no padding: box arrived badly dented.  Unsurprisingly, the contents were damaged in transit. I asked if they could replace it quickly as it was for a birthday gift: no, I must return it first for a refund because they can't send another until the first is returned and refund processed.  Only, their return address label system is broken! Kept me waiting several days and only sent me a return label when I said I would be asking for a credit card chargeback if they didn't.

I had to pay out twice to a different supplier for the birthday gift to get it in time.

Customer service did respond quickly, but don't seem to actually do anything else, even though it's very definitely their problem and their fault: you can't blame the courier for damaging an item so poorly packed, and the policy of keeping a customer's money even when their returns system is broken stinks.

It's now nine days since I returned the item and still no refund, and no answer to my email enquiring when the refund will be paid. 

This company should urgently review its refund policy and issue a refund to me immediately.

I regret buying from this company, this was my second order and I will buy similar items in future, but not from here.

Thank you for the review.
We're very sorry the sword arrived damaged and that there were some issues arranging the return label. We understand this was a very frustrating situation and we regret that you feel like this was done on purpose from our end.
In our return policy it is explained that we need a new order to send a replacement and we advise customers to not wait for the returned item to have arrived at our warehouse when there is a strict deadline.
Unfortunately, there was an issue at UPS which prevented us from suppying you with the return label quickly. We were working hard behind the scenes to have it fixed as quickly as possible. We did not only send the return label after you said you would be asking for a chargeback. We sincerely send you the shipping label immediately after we were told the issue was fixed.
As explained, we can only make the refund after we've received the returned item. We hadn't received the return yet after 9 days, but we decided to refund you already at that point to compensate for the issues that we had up to that point.

As described, Good Quality, Fast Shipping

As described, very good quality products and arrived earlier than expected. I ordered a mixed riveted chainmail shirt and they even threw in a riveter free with no extra charge. Highly recommend, would purchase here again 👍

Professionalism. Excellent custormer service

Products always arrive on time (earlier). If you have any trouble, take pictures and write to costumer service, they'll give you a solution (and they are very nice). A professional, honest recommended store.
