Propstore specializes in film and television props and costumes, production materials, and artwork, as well as music memorabilia, posters, and collectible toys.

Stating next day delivery and took over…

Stating next day delivery and took over two weeks. Charging 80 pound and not delivering within the timescales. Automated email replies with no real apologies just blaming an increase workload. Disappointed as after spending all that money and expecting it next day and items being two weeks later is unacceptable
No apologies or any ways of making it better

Hello, thank you for taking the time to review us today.

We try to make it as clear as possible that the shipping quotes and time scales selected at checkout are from an external shipping company and not Propstore. So, for example, your order will have been the next-day shipping service from when we handed the order to FedEx and provided you a tracking number.

Propstore cannot and does not guarantee next-day packaging of any orders as many of the items that we sell are extremely fragile and will require specialist packaging, which can take time. Many of our customers have commented favourably on this approach, stating that they are happy to wait a little longer if the packaging is done correctly.

I apologise for the misunderstanding this time around, but I trust the items were received in great condition and that you are happy with your purchase.

We always recommend calling us by phone for a more up-to-date status of your order. You can do this by calling 01494766485.

The Propstore team :)

Hello,
I am sorry to learn that you have yet to receive your order. We are doing everything we can to resolve the issues you are experiencing with your shipment. Propstore's logistics team are doing everything correctly, but unfortunately it is an internal issue with FedEx's systems that is causing the slow the progress of your package. Please rest assured all cases are being escalated immediately with our FedEx Account Manager, and we have been assured that this issue will be resolved soon. The Propstore team will be in touch with an update shortly :)

Memorable visit & Exceptional service

Our visit to Propstore's London warehouse was an unforgettable experience and truly the highlight of our trip. The warm welcome and engaging tour led by Jamie made it even more special. Jamie's knowledge and passion for cinematic memorabilia shone through, and his personable nature (and memorable sweater!) left a lasting impression on us and our kids, who couldn't stop talking about the visit. The collection was astonishing, with standout pieces like the Alien Queen and the Mars Attacks puppet sparking endless conversations afterward. The team's dedication to showcasing and preserving movie history is clear. Highly recommend visiting or engaging at Auction or in their vast Buy-now offerings with Propstore—it's an experience no entertainment memorabilia enthusiast should miss!

Exceptional Customer Service

Recently, I placed an order with Propstore. As always, the way in which it was handled was second to none. The customer service including updates during the process was exceptional. The packaging again, was incredibly well put together with care and attention for the items inside. I would not hesitate to use the services of Propstore again in the future!

A real blockbuster of a tour

We were lucky enough to be on the Propstore Tour this week, and absolutely loved every bit of it.
Graham and Luke, our Guides, were brilliant - informative, enthusiastic and had a great sense of humour. We particularly loved the behind the scenes stories of some of the props and how they were found and authenticated. Inspired to rewatch some classic films now we've seen the props and wardrobe pieces up front. All apart from Forest Gump - sorry Graham, I'm not watching that one again.

Spellbinding experience

Overall a great experience.
Very attentive team with so much knowledge and a real passion for what they all do.
Extremely accommodating of everything I wanted to look at, measure and photograph for reference as part of my own assessment for the value of bids I may place.

A Movie and Music Fan's Dream

Had a fantastic showroom and warehouse tour with Chris and Jamie today. The guys were amazing as was the amount of iconic movie props, memorabilia and musical instruments. Simply amazing.

Visited Prop Store ahead of their auction to check out what was going to be sold this year, and couldn't have been happier with the whole experience! Had a tour set up by Jamie and was shown around by Sam - both of whom were incredibly helpful and full of knowledge about the props and film in general, so a real pleasure all round.

Would recommend to anyone with an interest in film/tv and memorabilia

Super-helpful and friendly staff

Super-helpful and friendly staff, selling amazing memorabilia across many franchises and interests. Nothing is too much trouble for them, if they don't know something, they find out. Sadly, I cannot say the same for the awful FedEx delivery company, but that is in NO WAY the fault of Propstore. I would recommend Propstore to anyone looking to build their collection.

I haven't been contacted by Propstore if my posters sold.
Propstore contacted me after i sent the sentence above. Their quick explanation that my posters were not included in this auction caused me to change my experience to 5 stars.

Hi Stuart,

Thank you for your review,

Looking into your query in more detail, I see that your posters were not scheduled to be sold in the September Poster Auction.

We’d love to discuss your consigned items in more detail before they're sold to ensure you’re completely satisfied. We’ll reach out to you shortly, but feel free to contact us at support@propstore.com if you prefer.

A quality firm

I've picked up a few things over the years from both the UK and LA locations. There is a lot of care, detail and artistry that goes into creating these items that you just don't see on the screen. I find they are just lovely. Items are always well packed and shipping has been dependable. If they have any concerns or questions they reach out immediately. If you're picking up auction items, the process is very transparent, you can stream the live auction or follow the feed and they are very attentive to the bidders.

Very helpful!

Had a minor issue with a screw missing for my display. After a little back & forth explaining the situation propstore in the end did go above & beyond. My issue was more than resolved, they’ve certainly earned my future business!

Okay but Expensive and Slow Shipping

Expensive shipping fees and slow shipping turn around, but they have good product. Sometimes you have to dance with the devil in the pale moonlight.

Hi James,

Thank you for leaving a review for us today, we spot the Joker quote!

We are glad to hear that you are satisfied with our product but sorry to hear you were not happy with the shipping time frame and costs.

You are right, specialist packaging can take time, especially after large Auctions. We prioritize ensuring each item is packed to the highest quality standards to guarantee safe travel for all orders. Whether the order is large or small, we handle everything with utmost care and attention.

We always suggest reaching out to us at Support@propstore.com, where you can receive updates of your shipping progress :)
