Play.com - a big thumbs up for service !

Posted by: long-time-dead on 08 November 2003

Following many great recommendations on the thread about RLJ's new album I ordered some of her older albums and also a couple of Shawn Colvin's offereings. All at great prices from play.com

However, with our wonderful postal dispute throwing the UK into turmoil (apart from the bills - which always seem to get through.......) only one of the CD's arrived.

I decided to telephone them today expecting the "give it a couple of weeks, the postal dispute is delaying everything" response but no........

They have despatched me replacements as I type and I should, hopefully, get them during next week. I have been asked me to return duplicates if they eventually turn up Wink

Anyway, I just thought it would be nice to post some positive response for a company who cares more about their products arriving than taking my money !!

Well done play.com !!!!

Play.Com are very good and very cheap.

I've had no problems with them and find them polite on the phone.

Thanks - I've just ordered a DVD that's been out of stock at Amazon for months.

Just wanted to say I've used Play.com for over 2 years, and their after sales is brill - even down to sending replacement Jewel cases when the originals have arrived in the post damaged!

Thumbs up from me!

Agreed. They're very good if things do go wrong. In 4 years I've had two lousy sound quality DVDs, a few lost items, damaged outers and one shrink-wrapped double DVD case with fresh air inside it! Never had a problem getting it sorted.

10/10.

Amazingly good value. especially since the "free postage" truly applies.
I buy Region 1 DVD's from Play.com USA and they ship them to me in the Netherlands without any extra postage charge. Delivery time is also excellent considering the distance, it is certainly not a case of saving by using the slowest post.

Play.com I can also recommend. I have been using them for the last six months and have not had any problems at all. Prices and delivery are excellent.
