After waiting for more then a couple of…

After waiting for more then a couple of weeks, I must say I got worried, and checked reviews, which were quite negative.
After emailing them couple of times, they did reply back and it was sorted, I got my parcel few days later.
I suggest for those of you who are waiting, do email them til they reply!!

Ordered for my nephew

Ordered for my nephew, when it hadn't arrived after a week I read the reviews abd thought all was lost, contacted by email to be assured by Jon that the courier had picked up the parcel and was with them, he would chase it up!
Next day the courier delivered, although almost 2 weeks late, product received and kept in loop throughout.

Seems I was scammed

Seems I was scammed. Ordered $80 worth in Dec 2021. No communication after the initial email confirming my order. Nothing. Attempted to contact via email and through Shopify. Zero response. Zero indication the order was ever shipped. Literally the only confirmable thing that happened was the order was submitted and they took my money. They are either scammers or terrible at e-business. Stay away from this one, lots of pretty things on their website, but you'll never see them based on my experience and that of other reviewers here.

UPDATE 11/22: After sending another message via Shopify, I received a Shopify notice of a refund on my order, nearly a year after it was placed. Checked my credit card, and sure enough, they refunded me most (not all for some reason) of my money. Still no communication of any sort. So if you think they ripped you off, persist with emails, and log complaints through Shopify if possible.

Spent a great deal of money it is a scam

Spent a great deal of money. No reply for 5 days. I contacted on Facebook , they said will ship out that day or next day. Website said shipped after that. 3 weeks later nothing. Went to Facebook again , they said they would give refund. If shipped why would they not say the order was shipped. I think their facebook messenger replies automatically By what is said in ones comment's and no true human is is running this so called company . it is just an automated scam no orders ever sent just taking peoples money. No one ever answers their phone either. Stay away.

Hi Mr Levicki,
Thank you for leaving your feedback. We work incredibly hard here to make every purchase from our store successful and we’re really sorry we’ve not been able to meet your expectations this time.
Unfortunately, our first delivery went missing, as we replied to you, and we therefore sent another parcel. The second parcel was sent via Hermes so there was tracking and this tracking shows the parcel was delivered to you on 2nd March at 11.55am.
Our site is not turned off. We process thousands of successful orders and wouldn't switch our site off because one went missing.

Very disappointed

Pre ordered item and receive good contact of when pre order would be shipped. Item was shipped nearly a month ago and still not received. Since then not all my emails and phone calls have been ignored and I still do not have my item or a refund. Would not purchase from here again very disappointed.

I will not use again

I ordered Panini cards on an express delivery promise and was told they would send an email when despatched. When I had no confirmation of despatch after 4 days I asked if it had been sent and if not to please cancel order and refund - no reply so I put the same question on their facebook page. I was instantly promised a refund. Paypal advised pending payment received 2 days later but 7 days later it is still pending, I presume due to no funds being in their Paypal account available to pay it. I am chasing the seller (on advice of Paypal!) but now worried that they may not be a genuine company, or that they are in financial difficulty.
I will not be using again.

Exceptional customer service.

Exceptional customer service.

There was a minor problem with recent order of mine and the lengths taken by Dan to fix it were amazing. If this level of customer service was applied by large retailers, the world would be a much better place.

Highly recommend Dan and GNS.
