Helpful staff at Glasgow. Although everyone was busy they still made time for me when choosing my purchase (earphones)

Thank you for your wonderful feedback

Mixed experience but Richer Sounds got in touch to make amends.

When I phoned the store, Simon (I think was his name!) was superb. He ordered in the speakers I was looking for, which arrived in less than 24 hours, and cost even less than Amazon. Seemed a really lovely guy, too.

Service at the shop itself was less positive. The guy at the counter tried upselling an expensive HDMI cable which wasn't compatible with the speakers I had chosen. I asked about the best way to set them up, and showed an example of my current setup, and he just shrugged. I ended up picking the right cables based on my own guesswork.

UPDATE: The Richer Sounds team got in touch after this review and were genuinely apologetic and wanted to make amends. They took the negative aspects of this review very seriously and apologised wholeheartedly. Customer service was great from Ashley and the team there.

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review, I’m sorry to hear that your experience in store didn’t quite match the initial positive impression.

We’ve spoken with the colleague involved, who has held their hands up to making a mistake with the recommendation. You should always feel confident that any advice we give is right for your setup, so it’s disappointing to hear this wasn’t the case on this occasion. We’re addressing the experience you’ve described with the appropriate training to make sure it’s learned from.

In the meantime, I’ll arrange for our customer service team to get in touch to check everything is working as it should with your speakers and to help resolve things for you..

Always helpful in the Glasgow store

Always helpful in the Glasgow store both on the phone and when I have visited. Alan the Manager is particularly understanding when discussing options for my system right from the beginning. Highly recommended company and people. Thank you.

Hifi equipment purchases.

Been upgrading my hifi equipment & cables since January, Stephen @ Richer Sounds has been great, he gave sound advice which ultimately resulted in me spending more than I had planned but so glad that I did as end result was definately worth it, would have no hesitation in recommending Richer Sounds their customer service has been first class.

Excellent item, shame about delivery company

Excellent TV, very good price. Website easy to use and secure. Good communication.
All taken down a notch by the delivery company you use. Not impressed. Delivery delayed, various different WhatsApp message chats (people or AI?) not making much sense and not being particularly helpful. One of the delivery people deciding to pass a judgy remark about the tv being too big for my living room.

Thanks for taking the time to leave such a detailed review and for the kind comments about the product and purchase experience, all of which are great to hear.

I’m very sorry however that the delivery side of things let this down, including the completely inappropriate comment from the deriving team, and I can completely understand why that would leave a sour note on what should have been an exciting time. We do take this sort of feedback seriously, and have addressed the issue directly with the delivery company involved, if you would like to discuss the issue further of course feel free to get in touch via the below..

Had the best time in this store

Had the best time in this store. The staff are brilliant and gave us such great advice on a new stereo system. No push for hard sale just honesty and great service they couldn’t do enough for us.

Great customer service

I wanted a second turntable, nothing too expensive, bluetooth-enabled, to use in my attic room. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Very happy with my purchase - a win-win 'cos I spent a bit more than I intended - great salesperson! Turntable was delivered the next day
