After reading the reviews, I knew the early years would be a small print; however, most pages looked smeared. This includes at least the first half of the book. Also on most pages, the print format is... See more

Very satisfied, beautiful product

The website was easy to use for personalisation. The product is beautiful and good quality, delivered in a lovely presentation box. Also the speed of delivery was amazing, our unique product was despatched within a couple of days!

It's ok

Not as good as other personalised books I've purchased, is written like it's being read to the person rather than them being involved in the story

Thank you for your review.

We are sorry to hear this.

We can see that you have ordered the Avengers Beginnings Book. Within the product information we do have a 'Look inside' feature, which provides a 12 page example of the beginning of the book.

In regards to the story itself, all the Disney books have been designed and approved by Disney, therefore unfortunately we are not able to amend in anyway.

Please do accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Kindest Regards

Lovely book. A nice keepsake. Buying the gift box made it special. A quick turnround even with the post delays, it arrived in plenty of time.

It was nice and easy to order however when received, the spine of the book was damaged and the gift sticker on inside cover just slapped on not straight and looking untidy. Very disappointed with the lack of care.

It’s a great gift

It’s nice. Unfortunately the cover arrived damaged in the top of the binding left side. The packaging could probably do with some extra bubble wrap. No too happy about font used for the personal message inside the book, {not sure if I was given a choice of font and missed it but definitely would not have chosen this font. Way too curly for a book for a bloke}. Overall it’s nice and hopefully he will enjoy it.

I ordered this book for my Godson for Christmas. He loves Spiderman, so to have it personalised was the perfect gift. The website was easy to use and had a great variety of books to choose from. Despite the current strikes, I recieved my order quite quickly. I've already recommended this site to my friends. I will definitely use their services again.

This book does not disappoint!!!

This book is so much better than what I imagined!!! I was a little concerned after I read some of the reviews but this book does not disappoint. It is a Christmas gift for my husband and I can't wait to give it to him. If you're looking for a unique gift for a football fan....this is it!!!

Great keepsake but dodgy delivery service

Impressed with the product itself although the quality of pages varies….in quality and content!!…given to my brother as a birthday present and he thought it was a great idea/keepsake. Delivery was disappointing as I paid extra for courier services to ensure a speedy delivery while we are experiencing postal strikes….however, delivery was late and I only received the package in the nick of time….

Thank you for your review

We do apologise that your order was later than quoted.

Looking into your order, and email confirmation, your delivery dates were between 22nd November - 25th November.

Your order was processed and dispatched by your chosen method of a Royal Mail 48 service. Due to the ongoing Royal Mail strikes throughout November and December this has unfortunately caused major disruptions, which we do apologise for.  Your item was successfully delivered on the 12th December. We hope upon receipt, you were pleased with the product ordered.

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenienced caused.

The quality was better than I expected and it arrived very quick with the standard shipping option. I am very pleased with this purchase and excited for the reaction when it’s opened on Christmas morning. I’ll definitely keep this company in mind for future gift needs for those true sports fans!

slightly disappointed for the cost

There was a delay in delivery and package took over 2 weeks to arrive. Customer service did get back to me, once contacted, with package tracking number. The books looks nice from outside but some pages are very very hard to read which is highly disappointing. They look like poor quality photocopied sheets to where you can't even read the article. Overall, slightly disappointed

Thank you for your review.

We are sorry to hear this.

We am sorry to hear that you are not happy with the quality of your order. The scans have been archived from original microfilms which are in black and white some of which are quite dated and can vary in quality. We do make every effort to ensure they are cleaned up prior to dispatch but we are very dependent on the scans available for each date which can be quite grainy/pixelated. It is only in recent years that full colour digital archives have been made available so the print technology may not be as good as a print from today.

Please do accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.
