Box of Tricks Collections Reviews 

Was quick delivery

Item is incredible

The books are of excellent quality and are particularly useful for my research and teaching. Thank you so much for excellent quality books. Best wishes, Gerard

I bought the orrery . It arrived quickly. I will start helping my grandson to build it at Christmas time. I am totally delighted at the quality of all the parts. The laquered brass finish is excellent and the gears are superbly made. I have not started to build it yet, but the instructions look good and are written in clear faultless english, unlike those for many chinese-made items.

Super fast postage, excellent packaging. Excellent product.

Delivery took a while to the UK, but it was worth the wait.

I recieved my package with water damage and the instructions and half the tool unusable

I’ve wanted this item for a long time and I wasn’t disappointed. It was shipped fast and I enjoyed putting it together.

I took advantage of £100 discount and the delivery was quicker than anticipated. It was well packaged and arrived in good condition. I am well pleased as I have been looking at these for a long time. I wasn't disappointed. A great purchase.

Nothing that's your fault with the delivery service, who sent the package to Australia, where I live, but then decided it was meant to be in Austria and redirected it to Germany.

Edit: Well it arrived at my Australian address, but with a US power adapter.... The box itself has a huge sticker on the side that says USA! Someone has sent me the USA edition instead of the AUS edition. This is absolutely and utterly pathetic for the price I've paid.

Now I have a completed model that doesn't operate.

Great service, fast delivery and good customer service when i needed a replacement part.

The product was as advertised and the customer service was fast, responsive, and helpful. I’m very happy.

Seemingly instant shipping to the USA (3 days). Very nice kit - great service

To my surprise it worked first time after assembly! It needs patience and care as there are lots of small grub screws and bolts around, and gears that need alignment.
But everything was present in the kit plus spare fasteners (in the lowest, last box in the stacked layers of the kit). Only one grub screw seemed too tight to fit a threaded hole but its spare did.
Very satisfied as I watch the hypnotic movements of the planets and gears…

I ordered the solar system orrey.Every thing was perfect it arrived from GB to the USA in just three days! It's very well made, It could use a different switch one that extend through the base plate farther, and there are 2 different size set screws that go into the spacer collars, if they dont fit keep trying until you find the right one. Other then that its a great product.

As this is a very advance birthday present for January we have only opened the box to check it. I'll be building it in after a "big" birthday!
It arrived very quickly and was well packaged with several separate layers of polystyrene each with different components and the instructions for that set of parts. All looks good quality. I'll update once I start building it.

I am writing this review early as far as building the orrery. I was just a bit uncertain about ordering the orrery, due to the fact that Eaglemoss was involved. Eaglemoss products are of good quality, however their ethics going into their bankruptcy were definitely lacking. However Box of Tools assured me they had product on hand and I can attest that when I placed my order, I received it in a very timely manner. Box of Tools is honest and so far a pleasure to deal with. As I said previously, I have little concern over the quality of the product. I will update if circumstances warrant it.
