I received my pre-ordered copies of Madonna's Confessions II on the day of release. Immaculately wrapped and packaged. Superb service - have bought several vinyls from Chalk's since.

This is a scam they charged me £56 pounds postage for an £11 LP and did not tell me cost of shipping upfront I tried to cancel the payment and could not and sent them loads of emails with no response. Don’t buy from this company

Hi Karen,
We are very sorry to hear about this concerning experience. This certainly does not sound like our standard procedure, especially for a UK order.
Could you please contact us directly at help@chalkys.com with details of your order? We'd like to investigate this immediately, as there should be no postal charges for a UK order shipped via Royal Mail.
Kind regards
