18 Inch Leather Backgammon set
After shopping around, I settled on this backgammon set from Chessgammon as it seemed the best all round value without having to spend hundreds of pounds, my main buying criteria being that the pips were inlaid. Its a very nice set, service has been impeccable

Excellent service
Excellent service. Slightly mediocre backgammon pieces, which seemed a bit cheap and nasty. Perhaps I expected too much for £20! Good follow up from company though and I’d use them again.

We ordered a chess clock from Chessgammon in December 23. The goods were paid for via PayPal and never arrived. There was no response via emails via Etsy and Paypal. Our opinion is that it is better not to do business with Chessgammon

Excellent Service
I recently purchased the Helena Mother of Pearl Ebony Chess Board 20 Inch, and I am really impressed with the quality of it, it's such a lovely board. I am also really impressed with Chessgammons service, they did take a little while to respond to my query but when they did they answered everything and more. When I ordered the delivery speed was impressively fast and the parcel was very well protected.
My only real area for improvement would be that I would have liked to receive a confirmation email about my order. I could however track the item through Chessgammons website, so it is only a minor point.
All in all I would highly recommend these guys. Great company. I will certainly be using them again in the future.
