Helpful nature of the staff

Iv ordered the wrong adapter and the next day they changed the order to the right one without any issues , Even tho iv had to wait 2-3 weeks it was disclosed to me beforehand , and iv agreed to it . Iv got regular updates on the progress of the shipment . Iv asked if it arrives by the time I need to shoot with it and they ensured that it will. It did arrive. Can’t say anything bad about my experience.

None in stock when order placed

When I ordered the item there was none in stock. I was notified to this effect and had the offer to cancel my order and get a refund or wait for an expected delivery. I chose to wait as other sites I had looked at all had no stock. I was kept informed regularly of updates to the situation. On February 27th I received my order having placed it on February 11th. Considering that I live in Shetland that is not an undue time to wait.

Reliable

The customer service is responsive. The delivery is fast and secure. The DPD provides one hour time slot delivery notice which means you don't need to wait at home whole day.

Great value

Great value and speedy service. The website is well laid out making it easy to find what I wanted, with all my questions answered. I was able to compare other systems before making my choice. Once made the delivery was so fast I am able to start using the mic system straight away.
