Hi Eileen, thank you very much. I am happy to have been able to help and will look forward to doing so again in the future. Kind regards, Rebecca.
Excellent customer service and quality products
My order got stuck in the Christmas rush with An Post. After a quick email to Trailblazers, they managed to get my order moving again and with me within a couple of days. A lovely handwritten note came with the order which was a nice touch. Would order with them again for sure. Based in Leitrim - good to support a rural Irish business.
