Good experience shame about delivery charges
Good experience. Just annoying when I have to pay delivery charges when everyone else would qualify for “free delivery” and the parcel wasn’t big.

Excellent professional company with top quality goods and a fast service couldn’t recommend them highly enough
They do proper discounts rather than a points system the Japanese wood carving tools are excellent they stay super sharp the Japanese soft rubber rollers are well worth the extra money
All the delivery came quick and efficiently
