I can see why they have a near perfect score on here; one of the few firms that actually deserves such a high rating. Prices are always competitive, and at sale time compete with China pricing!... See more

Overall I am very impressed

I have purchased two items from Pimoroni, There prices are good, The items arrived promptly, I had issues with the 1st item, support could have been better, but there return system worked well and the money was refunded as soon as they received notice that the carrier had the item, Much quicker that many much larger companies. The second item was again delivered promptly and worked fine.

Nice store with lousy shipping partners

The store itself & their selection is nice and I would really like to support them, but the selected shipping partners drive me away.

I can get the same parts with no delivery cost in 2 days from the US competitor - why would I pay for the shipping and wait for almost three weeks for the delivery? The delivery from Pimoroni missed my project deadline, unlike the competitor's.

watch out for DHL -will bite you

I ordered simple connectors and mount extensions.
Those shipped fine. because they ship from GB, they came via DHL.
DHL charged me:
regulatory charges:$1.34
Export duties $9.95
and...$17.50 for the privilege of using DHL!
Pimoroni already charged me shipping $35.62 for $17.08 with of goods.
So, to get $17.08 of goods from pim to my door I paid $64.41.
Pim does say - DHL is their only choice for shipments to USA, and customer have to pay their own duties - that 's fine. It would have been nice if Pim had warned me about DHL charges when I ordered.

Hi Kevin

Sorry to hear that - courier admin charges are not really something that we can control, I'm afraid :(

We do try and provide as much information as possible about possible charges on our shipping information page: https://shop.pimoroni.com/pages/shipping-information#shipping-to-usa . There's also a link to the shipping information on the checkout page (right underneath the 'Checkout' button) that links to this page.

Please drop us an email at support@pimoroni.com if you need more info!

My Experience purchasing from Pimoroni…

My Experience purchasing from Pimoroni has always been excellent. They're delivery is fast and they always package items appropriately. They also have a wealth of content on their website which you can learn from as well as a forum from which you can ask for help with projects.

I'd never heard of this company but…

I'd never heard of this company before but because I couldn't find the item I wanted, I ended up finding them on Google. So glad I did find them as their prices were really competitive and they had a lot more on the site in the same vein as the item I bought, which was an RF remote for Sonoff controllers. Ordering was easy and I was kept informed of the delivery process by email at all times. Not only that it was super quick. I highly recommend using Pimoroni from my experience and I will no doubt use them again in the future.

Ahoy Gwen!

Thanks for the review. We charge £3.90 flat rate shipping in the UK for 24 hour delivery of orders of any size / weight. This is representative of the postage costs that we are charged by Royal Mail and we don't make a profit on shipping.

Please feel free to drop us a line at support@pimoroni.com if you'd like more information about shipping costs :)

Badgeware Tufty 2350

The Badgeware Tufty is a cracking piece of kit, with excellent display, solid-feeling buttons and a case that makes it possible to deliver a wide range of simple projects in a robust, professional-looking unit without messing about with soldering and then finding or building a case suitable for the purpose. And good, friendly service on the ordering and delivery too.

Pimoroni provides an absolutely vital service to makers

Pimoroni provides an absolutely vital service to makers. We of course have access to the 'big boys' like RS Components, Farnell, Mouser and the like, but they are more oriented towards industrial users in terms of prices and quantities. We all need to support outfits such as PM, especially as some of their competitors have disappeared in recent years.
