I placed an order for copier paper, but due to a shipment error, the order was only partly delivered. In life, it's not about the problem, but how it is managed and the solution arrived at. Suzanne... See more

The parcel was well wrapped and arrived earlier than expected. I was so pleased to find the soap flakes online and they are fragrance free which is essential for me with my allergies.

I have not ordered from this company…

I have not ordered from this company before, and was very pleased when I purchased the item on Friday night and it was delivered by Royal Mail the next Wednesday. very fast and efficient service and I was also able to pay by PayPal which was also a bonus. Thank you.

I ordered the trike on Monday

I ordered the trike on Monday, and it was delivered on Wednesday.It required minimum assembly which was very easy.
What struck me the most though was the superb quality of the product. We bought it for our grandsons, but I reckon this will still be going strong when they have their own children.

The website is a little misleading

The website is a little misleading. It's advertised as a balance beam and shows 3 beams but in fact you only get the one. £84 is a lot of money for in essence is one piece of planned timber. I would definitely NOT recommend this produce or company very poor value for money

Dear Steven,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, feedback is extremely important to us and I will pass the details over to the relevant team for them to take appropriate action.

I have reviewed the details on your order and can see that the pack size is listed as "Each" on the website and the product image also shows a single unit.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further assistance in relation to this.

Best regards,
Customer Services

Puffin hearts are a bit like olives.

Shopping at Springboard Supplies has the same vibe to it as buying wasps cooked in their own businesses from Lidl. (Sean Lock fans will understand the reference.)
I bought a couple of rolls of gift wrap.
- Quite an innocuous thing to do.
But when they arrived via mail they weren’t packaged in a cardboard poster mailer tube, or even ratting around inside an oversized Amazon style cardboard box. Instead they were bound impossibly tightly in a black plastic bag that was swaddled thickly in layers of Sellotape.
Have you ever tried to cut a mummified bag off of rolls of gift wrap without cutting into or crushing the paper inside?
It’s not possible.
20 minutes later when the rolls were finally freed from the packaging it transpires the paper was rolled inside out.. reverse side outermost.
I’ve never seen that before in my entire life.
That’s going to be fun trying to wrap gifts with that. At least when one buys paper from a regular shop anywhere else on earth it’s rolled the “right way” around with the colourful side outermost and half the work of wrapping gifts is done for you buy the paper naturally curling itself around the gift you’re attempting to wrap.
Bizarre.
