Hello Steve,

We did have stock of this item but not in the quantity that you ordered which is why the website stated in stock. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has not yet been able to supply us with additional units and out sales team will be in touch diretcly with you to resolve this.

Good customer service but packaging and courier poor…

Great prices and good customer service when things go wrong but order was poorly packed and then shipped via DPD so arrived battered and bashed and with 20% of the order smashed. Light Bulb World customer service were very proactive and arranged prompt replacements but considering the delicate nature of the goods they need to pay better attention to their shipment packaging and find a different courier.

Check if in actually in stock

Delivered with 4 days. The only concern was when I purchased the astro palermo lights the website said that they were in stock. The next day I received an email from Jason Gross saying that the lights were on order as they were not in stock. I checked the website and it still shows that the where in stock. I strongly suggest that you ring to check if they actually have any item in stock before you purchase.

Hello David,

Many thanks for your review. The website shows these items in stock with a 3-5 working day lead time as they come direct from stock held by Astro. They are in stock with the manufacturer and arrived to you within the stated lead time on the website.
Astro have hundreds of lines and therefore we are unable to hold stock of the lines simply due to the space that would be needed to house them. This is why many decorative lighting companies such as Astro offer a fast despatch as well as access for sellers such as ourselves to be able to see their live stock numbers.

A very quick response to my email…

A very quick response to my email regarding a replacement diffuser. Julian was so helpful and arranged for the item to be sent by the manfacturer for onward delivery.
Great customer service and thank you.

excellent

At first disappointed as I ordered for next day delivery and not in stock. I received an email advising me of this and offer deliver in 3-5 days or a refund. I gave a date when I wanted delivery. Delivered when I requested, well packaged and fully informed of delivery times.
The light itself is great, put up straight away and looks great, just as described and saved £59 from price in local shop. Would certainly but from here again.

Excellent responsiveness

After placing the order I received a prompt email saying it was not on stock hence delivery would take 5-7 days. Although it took longer than that, I am satisfied with the experience overall as when I sent a follow up email I again received a prompt response and I received the lamp within 3 days.
