Leather rejuvinater for an old travel bag I have a 100 year old leather travel bag to restore. The leather has become very dry and stiff. Not supple and was not responding to any leather conditioner or wax. However I purchased some leather rejuvinater from Preservation Equipment, followed the instructions and applied to the bag after I had washed the wax off. The rejuvinater treatment worked perfectly. The bag is now soft and supple and ready for another 100 years of use. I am very happy with the end product.

PEL has a super range of products not… PEL has a super range of products not readily found elsewhere at the quality and price I needed. One order item may have delayed the overall order beyond my deadline. Customer service was brilliant in ensuring my priority items were delivered on time to enable my meeting a deadline. I should also highlight the packaging used was very robust and ensured my items arrived in a pristine state.

£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.

Thank you very much for your dedication, professionalism and support! Mandy, Jo, Laura were very kind, friendly and professional! They were very steadfast in their replies to my enquiries, provided reassurance and took care of all the details to ensure all goes smoothly. My purchases of the products happened to be during the lockdown in UK and times of this pandemic which created some delay but these were to be expected and understandable. It is also heartening to know that the PEL is doing their upmost best to still provide access to goods, doing good work in customers service while also taking care of the wellbeing of their staff during times of pandemic. Thank you for your dedication and wonderful work!
