Excellent system
Excellent system, great for tracking and notifications. Great list of products and subject matters. Your prices are also well below most of the retail outlets. This is why I started going to Fishpond first when looking for books, music, et al. Cheers!.

Great customer service
My order took over 8 weeks to arrive which was very frustrating. HOWEVER the customer service I received was outstanding! Thank you for being so great with things that are out of your control.

What a frustrating experience
What a frustrating experience! I followed up with them on a later delivery the tracking info said a courier label had been added but it was sorting in their processing depot for two weeks. Fishpond said it was a delay on NZ Post's part, NZ Post said they hadn't picked it up so asked Fishpond to get in touch with them. But Fishpond just ignored my request and came back offering to find a replacement. Meaning they knew they lost it but no apology even when they could tell how frustrating I was finding this lack of customer service. I've requested a full refund - will never buy from them again. I would advise the same unless you don't care whet your parcel arrives and you enjoy pointless conversations which go around in circles.

Hi Erica,
That is definitely not the kind of customer experience we strive for and we would love the opportunity to make this right.
Please let us know the order number so we can get that sorted for you straight away and find out what has not gone according to plan.
Our Customer Experience team will then contact you directly.
Kind regards,
Catherine

John & Lisa's Kitchen cookbook speedy delivery.
Delivery was speedy and arrived in a neatly packaged cardboard box to the John & Lisa's Kitchen cookbook with recipes from the Saturday Morning Kitchen TV show I loved. And much cheaper than all the other online prices for this book.

An impressive range of books often at the lowest comparative pricing, sturdy packaging is used, delivery has occasionally been faster than the estimated due date even when sourced from international suppliers. Excellent customer service all round, thank you.

Communication was good
Communication was good, was delivered in quoted time. The only issue I had is that the packaging had stuck to the book, but was able to be peeled off without damaging the book. It would have been a 5 otherwise
