I placed an order for a memorial box and paid for express delivery which was 24 hours.
It took 24 hours for the seller to confirm that they received the order and then in the next 24 hours there was no further update.
I contacted the selller and on the positive side this was resolved within a few hours.

Excellent customer service

Although the original item was not quite perfect, both Not On The High Street and Dust and things dealt with the problem promptly and efficiently. The personal service from Dust and things especially was excellent and follow up from Not on the High Street was reassuring

FOREST AND CO. STAY AWAY

I ordered 2 scarves from one of their sellers, Forest and Co. 4 turned up, all the wrong colour. Of course they took payment for 4 scarves even though I only ordered 2.
Promised to refund but we are now well into the New Year and nothing has been refunded.
I will file a claim in the small claims court as I’m fed up with being ripped off by companies.
FOREST AND CO. Remember the name

I'd give a zero star review if possible. I bought an item, got notification it was on its way. It should have been dispatched 2 weeks ago but hasn't been. I've tried to follow the instruction to contact seller, etc and nothing. The item was meant to be a Christmas gift, I had to buy something else. I'm going to contact my credit card company to get a refund. Avoid

Very promising with good ideas.

Updated review.

NOTH Customer service worked hard to sort things out, and Querty, the seller, were superb. NOTH is a great idea, a bit like Etsy for gifts and day EXPERIENCES, just takes getting used to order system. I like the idea enough to continue with them.

The Forest And Co

Ordered scarf with initials and boxed. Did not come in a box was a net bag. Was told the heart did not come with box but details not clear... The initials were added without any care so where they put the initials was right on the butterfly motif so looked awful. Was told would resend but got an empty box 2 days before Christmas with no scarf. Was told that there's been miscommunication and now would not be able to send scarf out In time. They did refund but would not use again.
