Thanks very much for taking the time to leave your review. I’m really pleased to hear you were happy with the service.

I’m sorry about the confusion caused by the greeting in our follow‑up emails however – that certainly shouldn’t have looked as it did. This was down to a missing detail on the in‑store account, and we’ve since made changes to our email setup to ensure this doesn’t happen again.

Thanks again for your feedback and for choosing Richer Sounds.

Better than a price match – simply unbeatable service!

I contacted Richer Sounds to see if they would price match a TV I found elsewhere. Not only did they honor the lower price, but they actually gave me a further discount and a much longer warranty than the competitor! The process was incredibly easy; I just filled out a form on their website, and they emailed me shortly after to finalize the deal. I’m over the moon with the service and the value. Don’t shop anywhere else before checking with these guys first.

Great service by knowledgeable staff.

Immensely helpful suggestions for a replacement for my cd player, even giving a contact who might be able to repair the old machine.This was not possible so I purchased a Cyrus 40 which I am running in. Thanks to the staff for getting my music back!! And at a good price.
