GB£9.95 flat rate shipping for an order dispatched an entire working week after placing it Buyer beware- the shipping fee is highly unreasonable. My order will arrive a week after placing it (it took 5 full working days to dispatch), and in spite of it being physically very small, shipping is still £9.95 flat rate. My order items cost just shy of £20, so shipping is 50% of the value of my order. This flat rate fee might be justifiable for larger items or express delivery, but certainly not for the odd couple of bits of kit dispatched an entire working week after you place the order. I will not be a repeat customer. Urgent orders may not be fulfilled promptly. In this case, the shipping fee is completely unjustifiable. Update to reply from vendor: visible costs do not make them reasonable, particularly when the only realistic purchase is online and no specific date of dispatch is offered in advance. To give context, the shipping cost of two full-size bottles of whisky purchased from an independent retailer online cost exactly half the shipping price of my Preservation Equipment order for a box of the same dimensions but four times the weight. I’d have less of an issue with the insured price (empathizing entirely with the position of independent retailers) had it been dispatched promptly.

GBTip-top service! I purchased some 'book binding basic' tools and supplies - only I'd forgotten something and ended up putting two orders through. Mandy picked this up and collated the two orders together so I only paid for 1 lot of P&P. My order was packed very carefully and the quality was tip-top. Would def. recommend to anybody who is looking to get into book binding or other preservation techniques.

GBPromises Kept Promises Kept I was working within a specific time frame and needed to protect some photographs. I ran out of protective sleeves and on re-ordering was worried that they may not be delivered in time. I phoned, was greeted with professionalism and courtesy. My urgent need was responded to and a promise of delivery was kept. Thank you to Linda, Mandy and all those involved in expediting my order! So much appreciated.

GBGreat products and helpful staff I am always delighted with the products I receive from Preservation Equipment Limited. They are high quality items and I can order with confidence. Recently, I was particularly pleased, as I was running out of time to complete a special birthday present and had to 'phone to ask for my order to be upgraded to first class mail. The staff were extremely helpful and professional. I received my large acid-free photo corners speedily, which enabled me to complete the project. Thank you for your help.
