Excellent service and product

I've used Wex several times to purchase used lens and a camera. Each time I got a top quality item. It was excellent value for money. The description was spot on, and you get a 12 month warranty. Delivery was by DPD and arrived the following day each time.

Excellent Service

Cannot fault the service ordered a new camera bag online on a bank holiday Monday and was delivered before lunch the following day. Website is easy to use , communication is good. While going to a bricks and mortar store, especially when buying a bag would be nice (come on WEX open one in Dorset) with service like this it's the next best thing.

Thank you.

I am sure if we opened a store in Dorset there would be a lot of transfers put in from staff to work there!

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear that your order took longer to arrive than expected.

On this occasion, your order was fulfilled from two separate locations. While part of the order was dispatched promptly and reached you the following day, there was an unexpected delay in dispatching the second item, which unfortunately impacted the overall delivery timeframe.

We understand how frustrating this must have been and appreciate that it fell short of the service standards we aim to provide. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to discuss the matter with you directly, and please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,
Terry - Customer Service Team Manager

Always WEXcellent

I'm a regular Wex customer for many good reasons: range and prices are good, used equipment descriptions are always generous for the buyer, customer service is always excellent and shipping is always swift (a little too swift and times of you've made a mistake and need to cancel). Excellent!

Selling kit via Wex Second Hand service

I recently sold a number of items of camera equipment to using the Wex Second Hand service. I cannot fault the service, I used the online service to get a quote for my kit, dropped it off at my local shop and received a very fair revised quote following their inspection of my kit within 4 working days. On excepting the offer the cash was in my account the next day. Communication from the Second Hand team was excellent, as was the help provided by the Edinburgh store team.
