Good price, long delay in delivery

The equipment I ordered was well priced and cheaper than anyone else I could find on the internet,The equipment arrieved as described and well packaged, why 2 stars. 7 days after the money was taken from my account, there was still no sign of the items purchased, had to send an email to enquire what was the delay, got a reasonable explanation, however if it takes 9 to 10 days after ordering the item before you recieve it, it might be worth paying the extra and using a company that has a good track record for delivery. I will use Online power tools again, i will just make sure I do not need the equipment in a hurry.

absolutely top drawer

After searching the net for the items required I found these guys to be £80.00 cheaper than all the other sites i veiwed, so fantastic value for money. Also received the items the next day. What more can I say, other than I would recommend anyone looking for these types of products to try online power tools before making their purchase, I know I will. Well done guys !!!!

Very good

Great price and service - delivery was a bit slower than expected. Promised next day (Friday) but only arrived on the Monday, this seems to have been a problem with DPD the couriers rather than Online Power Tools themselves?

Good service

Quick delivery next day, just bit disappointed about courier company which left tools with someone else without contacting me first. Everything else all right, I would definitely recommend this company.

Is this a joke

I buy online every day most items are delivered the next day, some 2 days never any longer than 3 days but I ordered with you on the 19/3/2012 and 9 days later have not even go a delivery date.

I can get a whole house of UPVC windows including glass in 5 working days so appalling.
