I guess I was expecting you to ask a me a few questions and being an absolute beginner, offer me some guidance. Such as have you thought of and have you got. Instead I ended up buying spade, bags, gloves, trowel +++ from Regtons.

Hi Gordon,

Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback and, of course, for your purchase.

I have looked at your order and can see that you placed it online overnight, which always creates a challenge for us regarding communication prior to purchase.

We do try to suggest other products that may be useful on each product page through our ‘Frequently bought together’ section, but we understand this section doesn’t cover every item we think you might need.

This is something we will have a deeper think on and see if there are further things we can do to make the shopping experience with us easier. We would also love to discuss this further with you to better understand the obstacles you faced. You can reach us by email at info@lpmetaldetecting.com, or our live chat at www.lpmetaldetecting.com or by phone on 01635 597975 (Mon-Fri 09:30-17:00).

Would have been 5 stars but next day…

Would have been 5 stars but next day delivery didn’t ship my manticore which was a big shame as I was out on a site that day and wanted to use it. My other orders arrived the next day but not the detector.
