Great product received from a Veteran
Great product received from a Veteran. Took slightly longer to arrive than big online firms, but hardly by much at all, and this is clearly forewarned on the seller’s site. I was perfectly happy with the minor wait, knowing it was coming from a small business (and, again, someone ex-British Forces)

Excellent customer service
Excellent customer service. Glass Stein was delivered broken due to no fault of the company. Emailed them proof, they apologised and had a replacement sent the next day, free of charge. Top top company and will certainly use them again. 10/10

Reply from Thecraftyblackdog
Dear Gary, you haven't informed us of a wrong item received therefore not given us a chance to rectify this for you, so a 1* review is very harsh indeed. Please let us know where we went wrong so that we can sort this for you. A 1* review for a small business like mine can be very damaging when we haven't even been given a chance to sort the issue for you, which for the record we always do, as customer satisfaction is very important. Please email directly info@thecraftyblackdog.co.uk
Wole process was quick and easy
