Ace service

I appreciated the product advice given on the phone before making my purchase. The transaction itself was easy and delivery prompt.

Where I got help and advice on microphones.

Very helpful quick and efficient service. Answered my technical questions fully and saved me a lot of money by suggesting a more cost effective solution to my problem. Lastly and very importantly tailored the delivery timing to meet my needs.

Took too long to deliver, problems with website

I ordered a mic for my viola a week before a gig, on a Thursday night. Their website crashed as I was putting my bank details in, so my bank froze my account. Having un-frozen my account (it flagged up as potentially fraudulent), I rang up to place the order. Four working days later it hadn't turned up. I rang up to check the status, and found they didn't even have one in stock and had only just ordered it from the manufacturers- despite their website saying things to the contrary!

I rang up the next day, to make sure they'd have them in. They said they'd get it in the post. It arrived the friday before a saturday gig- far too late to get used to! In the meantime, I bought a pick-up from my local music shop, which I used on the night, with great success.

Constantly crashing website meant I couldn't get to the order info, the guys I spoke to didn't seem to care about my order, the general impression I got was of a company which simply doesn't care.

I will not be using them again.

Dear disgruntled customer,

If you would be so kind as to tell us who you are we would like to resolve this. The problem is we simply do not know who you are! The reasons are as follows;

We have not had a mic enquiry for a Viola ever, and certainly not in the past 2-3 weeks.

Our website didn't crash, although your computer or server may have. neither I or my 2 colleagues are aware of anyone phoning regarding said mic or promising to post something we alledgedly said we had, but apparently didn't.

And finally, it is in our best interest to care, and we do, passionately, hence the high percentage of marks on our review pages.

Also if we sent you a mic, could we have it back please?

Regards,

Shed

You got my address wrong!

You missed out my village name on the address so UPS couldn't deliver.

Took me two days to sort UPS out.

Hi Mike,

The information UPS received is the exactly the information the customer types in when placing an order. It may be you typed in the post code into the post code finder, and it came up with the address but not the village.

It has to be the customers responsibility to check that address, because we couldn't possibly know! Everything inputted by the customer stays the same.

I'm sorry you had to sort it out but we didn't get the address wrong, had we known, we would have been happy to help.

Regards,

Shed

Free delivery from their warehouse to my door in under 24 hours

I found TheMicStore on Google when searching for a specific product that I needed in a hurry. I could have saved about 10% buying the item from Amazon (minus one star) but they were out of stock. TheMicStore web site showed that they had two in stock and next day delivery was free so I placed an order. There was a problem using their web site in Chrome which I reported to them but they have not replied (minus the second star). However, my order went through and I received an order confirmation email and, a short while later, an email to say the item was on its way. The item arrived packed in its original box placed inside a UPS box but there was no padding which I would have liked to have seen. Overall a good experience and I may well shop with TheMicStore again.

Good product, great advice.

I have not used the mic live yet but have tested it at home and I'm sure it will do the job.
Best thing about the purchase was the telephone advice I had from Shed at TheMicStore. Very patient , listened very carefully to what I had to say and then recommended a suitably priced/ranged mic. Arrived next day as promised.

Great service, again! Thanks Shed and all at TheMicStore .

Bang on advice!

I had a budget of up to £200 to get a mike to match my trusty Beyer M700 mike.
I rang the team to ask for suggestions and they suggested a Lewitt mike. I was suspicious ..not heard of the brand ... less than half my budget.... but I went with the advice.
Turned out to be bang on. Can't tell any difference in the sound quality between the two mikes. Looks smarter. Heavier! Good feedback rejection.
With the money I saved I treated myself to a new stand and lead so I'm a happy bunny!

Testing...Testing.

The web site is clear and interesting and the choice of gear has obviously been made by a knowledgeable and experienced retailer.

I got speaking to the owner and he explained quite a few things without appearing to talk down to me.

The mic I ordered arrived early the next day and it performs perfectly.

What more could you ask?

Helpful telephone service, rapid delivery

Very impressed - nice chat with knowledgable chap on the phone. I didn't know what mic I needed and he helped with a good choice. I spoke to them at about 4pm and it arrived the next morning. Brilliant.

Great Advice, Great Products, Great Delivery

I contacted the store for advice on the microphones required to record good quality audio whilst filming a live event. They were only too happy to help, discussing several options and different products. Using the stores guidance, I placed an online order and the goods arrived the next day with no problems at all. I highly recommend this company.

Far too easy

The item I purchased was exactly as described and perfect for my small home studio. It arrived less than 24 hours after placing the order.
