Excellent service in every respect. They always have a wide range of railway books, and they are sent promptly and very well packed. Of course you are supporting a lovely railway as well! Thoroughly recommended.

Impressive service
Although the advert stated, as did the website, that I would get a discount if I bought sufficient raffle tickets, I had to pay the full amount. However, it seems that the error was my not ordering correctly but I was given a very prompt refund of the difference.
It seems that comments are heeded and acted upon to the VoR's credit

Hello
I've chedked your transaction and you have actually purchased individual tickets, rather than chosen the 3 for £5 option. Thank you for bringing it to my attention, there is no problem in refunding you the difference., which I will do today via Paypal.
VoR Book Purchase
The Vale of Rheidol site offered the book I was searching for at a very competitive postage rate (I live in the US); not only that, but dispatch was very prompt and delivery was within a week -- very good by normal international standards. I would readily do business with this firm again and recommend it to others.
