“The Birthday Book was a joke. Terrible headlines and pictures on front page. No information or articles. I would never have bought this as a 75th Birthday Gift if I had known how terrible it was. If I could give 0 stars I would. Customer service not helpful at all.”
“Very efficient service. My delivery arrived quickly and was exactly as I requested. The additional packaging I ordered exceeded my expectations. Would certainly recommend.”
“Excellent service which provided a high quality wine and original 50 year old edition of the Times. Brilliant birthday present which arrived in 2 days beautifully boxed.”
“The Aston Villa history newspapers was an extra gift to celebrate our son’s 50th birthday Being an avid villa fan and a total surprise to him he was really surprised to receive the book which was delivered direct to him On receiving it he immediately telephoned us and said it was something he hadn’t expected and was thrilled at the quality and presentation of it He said he would be studying it thoroughly and if his 10year old son wished to look at it he would have to wear gloves!! Thank you for the quality and service we received”
“Unfortunately the birthday present arrived one week late and although when I complained Laura offered a £7.50 rebate, it still doesn’t make up for the fact that it was not delivered in time for my friends birthday. Disappointed as apparently the end product looks good and is a fascinating read.”
“On my sons 51st birthday ,(17th January) we were really struggling to think of a gift so soon after Christmas and when I saw your website I felt so lucky. He was thrilled with it " what an unusual gift" he said." I'll read that when I have peace and quiet". Beautifully presented and wrapped with authentic paperwork.. Happy to award 5stars.”
“The item took over a week to arrive even though I paid for a speedy delivery. When it did arrive I was disappointed with the result. The pages were just photocopies of the originals and were of poor quality, faded or blurred. I didn't expect the original newspaper but a better reproduction. After saying all of this the person who received it was pleased with it so not a total disappointment. As a result of this I gave it 4 stars in my review.”
“My 86 year old dad was very happy with his Bolton football book he enjoys reading it. It is a lovely looking sturdy book, delivered quickly via royal mail even though it was Christmas and very probably a covid staff shortage. I did have a problem with my first purchase but thankfully Laura at customer services sorted it out quickly, willingly and efficiently for me. I would say buy the A3 size as having seen the smaller book it is very difficult to read, I do think the website should point this out and maybe give a photoshot of print sizes to help customers with their decision.”
“I’m impressed by the efficiency of your service but a little surprised that your collection comprises mainly of local newspapers and not so many national papers. Am I right in thinking that this website is unique in the U.K. A brilliant idea!”
“Really pleased with the newspaper . Promo delivery . I also called the company to see when it would be delivered . The lady I spoke to over the telephone was extremely helpful . Very pleased , would recommend to friends and family .”
“The quality of the leather-bound volume, containing the front pages of the newspaper on the birthdays of my relative for the past sixty years, is superb. This was indeed a very appropriate birthday present for the man who has everything.”
“Lovely gift purchased for my dad's 90th birthday. He was very pleased with the newspaper book and was looking forward to bringing back some memories.”
“There was a situation with a delivery. My telephone inquiry had been resolved in matter of minutes and the product shipped in the early morning the following day.”
“I bought one of your historic newspapers ‘remember when’ for my Dad’s 81st birthday recently. Ordering was very simple and easy. I received a confirmation email straight away advising me of the delivery date which was spot on. The gift arrived well packaged and in perfect condition and the personalised inscription on the first page made it more relevant and special. This is a great gift for people of all ages but particularly an older person as it’s great to see the front page of the newspaper for each year they’ve been alive which in my Dad’s case was 81 years so great value for money and a thoughtful gift.”
