Pendle Slot Car Racing / Top of the Line Hobby Center



Upon inquiring of some items that I was seeking to purchase I emailed Pendle. The return message (reply) to me was in a most timely manner by Sean. As well, the second email was answered by sEan - PSR. Excellent communication by Pendle in assisting me with some technical information. In this respect, I placed an order through their website which is very easy to maneuver through. Their website is well structured providing currency rates in GBP, USD, EUR, AND AUD conversions. This is a very welcome feature. Their policies are clearly explained and are in line or better than most retailers. Their shipping time to the United States is fairly fast, seven days to my state. That amount of time is most reasonable. In the interim, Pendle constantly informs the buyer through email which is constantly updated in the progress of the arrival date. Upon receiving the item, the car was well packed, arrived in brand new condition as specified on their website, and is exactly as advertised. We would highly recommend Pendle for all seeking easy access to purchase without any worries. We would consider Pendle to be of concierge service.

Go to supplier have beeany for 30…

I have been using this company for 30 years and never had an order delivered late or damaged. On one occasion the wrong guide was included in a kit and a replacement sent out the same day I notified them. The website is without doubt the most user friendly slot car website out there. Easy to find the item you want, and crucially, easy to browse to find the things you didn't even know you needed. Whenever you meet the team they are happy to help and the displays they put on inspire the worst of us kit bashers to have a go at making some of the amazing range of kits they produce. The Pendle scratch parts, chassis, wheel kits etc have made the hobby more accessible to the average modeler. Yip. I think they're brilliant.

Hi Poyna,

I am very sorry for the delay in shipping your order. I have recently been away on holiday, and I personally arrange your orders.

On the checkout, we added the reserved option on orders which is very convenient for UK and overseas customers. As we can hold multiple orders at our premises and arrange to ship in one parcel to save on postage costs.

Please accept my apology on the delay of shipping your order, we appreciate your business for many years, and we are committed to providing great customer service. I will contact you to discuss as I want to make things right.

After some discussions with the companies team I got my long missed Penelope Pitlane kit. It would have been sad to cannot
order because of possible troubles. They still have the best range of slotcar equipment in Europe.
Only four stars because the communication was not really satisfactory until they found a solution.

Hi Karl,

Your original order placed on 6th September 2023 for the Penelope Pitlane Jaguar SS100 Kit was delivered to you on 13th September 2023.

You emailed us to report a part that was missing from your kit. This was our mistake, and we apologised for that. You admitted that you broke the body, and we really appreciated your honesty in this. We then sent the missing parts from the kit with your new order for the broken body.

Your new order was placed on 24th September 2023, and we dispatched this on 25th September 2023. As i mentioned in my email to you, the last update on your parcel tracking is on the 29th September 2023 ‘Customs declaration completed’ 11:18. We suggested that you contacted your local post depot with the parcel tracking number provided as in most cases this is the best way to resolve any issues with delayed parcels.

The likely scenario is that your parcel will eventually be returned back to us in the UK. Admittedly, I would have expected your parcel to have been returned back to the UK by now.

We have been sending parcels to our international customers since 1994. We have to accept that in very rare cases parcels are returned back. This can be for many reasons.

Please be assured that you will not lose any money. We are a family business and we care about our customers. I will get this resolved and be in touch soon.

Kind Regards,
Sean Fothersgill

Great Service, Sound Advice

Fortunately, Pendle is 200 miles away from me. Otherwise, I'd be in there regularly just browsing.
I don't buy much from Pendle Slot Racing, but I'm treated like I'm their best customer. Great service and sound advice.
