Would normally have bought from the brand directly but this year I couldn’t find the items I needed as single items! Easy ordering. Not keen on ordering on line as you don’t know of issues in the... See more

Unhappy customer

After waiting weeks for an order to arrive, I contacted Havens who said it would be in stock by the end of the month, at which point we’d be away on holiday. After being promised they would dispatch it when we are back, they sent it anyway.

Great experience!

The second time I am shopping on this site, and the experience could not have been better. Once again careful wrapping of the items, prompt shipping, and tracking available.

Went out of their way to be helpful

Havens went to the trouble of telling me that the photograph on the website was not a true likeness of an item I'd ordered (as part of a larger order). They took a photograph themselves, and emailed it to me. The differences appeared to be very minor, so I went ahead with the purchase, and am very happy with it - the differences were indeed very minor.

Royal Scot Crystal Snifters

Received these beautiful Royal Scot Crystal glasses pretty quickly, to the USA. Absolutely, gorgeous glasses. Haven’s provided tracking for them. I kept track of them the whole way, with no problem. This is my second order with them & I am extremely happy. They were for my husband & he loves them. I will keep doing business with them. Thank you so much. I highly recommend! 😊

Here's why you should shop at Havens

I placed a special order of china from Germany. As expected with imports from Europe, the milk jug arrived before the cereal bowls and the lunch plates came last. Havens went to a lot of trouble for me. They sent the pieces as they arrived and held delivery because I was away.
Havens is a cheerful team. No question is too hard for them. That makes me a loyal customer.

What a good company

What a good company. I ordered two Rosenthal china cups and was quickly told that there would be a delay because they had to come from the supplier. Sure enough, well within the quoted period they told me the cups were on their way and they duly arrived with a personal note. Flexible about ordering and personal service. Long may they flourish.

Non delivery of item…

As of today,7th November,I have only received two items, and not all three that I had ordered. Invoice stated that the set of glasses that I had ordered would come direct, but have not received them. They were for birthday gift on Thursday, so will now have to go to shops to buy something else.

My Order was not delivered, it’s been returned back to Havers, for some unknown reason, I have called them and am still waiting for a call back to tell me when I am likely to receive my order!!!!
