Click and collect order sold 30 mins…

Click and collect order sold 30 mins after purchase and 5 mins before we got to the shop to pick it up. How can you sell an item that has already been sold?

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.

We completely understand your frustration regarding your Click & Collect order. This situation can occasionally occur when a customer in the physical store selects and purchases the last remaining item off the shelf before our team has had the opportunity to physically pick and secure your online purchase.

Kind regards

Excellent customer service

I wanted to buy a red Rymans A5 single cash book, as this was the type I’d always used for my accounts. According to the Rymans website, these were not available for delivery but could be collected from certain stores (where available). I contacted my nearest store in Ipswich, where a very helpful man called Lee said he would ask the Cambridge store to send one over for me to collect. Unfortunately he was sent the wrong item (an Ideal single cash book). But he let me have it for the same price and said he would exchange it if he could find a copy. Despite his best efforts, he was unable to track one down - and in the end I managed to exchange it (in person) at a store in London.
However, I would like to highly commend Lee in Ipswich for going above and beyond on my behalf. His commitment to customer service should serve as an example to others.

Great Experience

I went to the Ryman Oxford store on June 20th of this year and I was able to purchase all I wanted to purchase, the staff at the check out counter was very polite and nice and Informed me about the 3 for 2 deal on highlighters. My experience was great.

Friendly support

I had taken a printer cartridge in to be recycled for a friend and this was happily accepted. Then I needed some batteries and went for my usual brand. However, the very helpful assistant suggested a much more reasonable option which saved several pounds and they have proved equally good.

Ordered 3 x 35 XL Really Useful Boxes

Ordered 3 x 35 XL Really Useful Boxes, c/w extra height lids for storing LP records for a decent price. However, I received 3 x 35L boxes instead which have the standard lids so unsuitable for records. Phoned to sort out and arrange replacement lids of the XL type which they initially agreed to. A short while later Ryman phoned back to say XL lids could not be sent separately and instead the 35L boxes had to be returned and once scanned by the collection courier a replacement set of the correct type boxes would be dispatched, fair enough I thought. Their nominated courier was arranged for a few days later and you've guessed it, they didn't turn up, I waited in all day wasting valuable time, coincidentally the courier app stills says awaiting collection. I sent in a complaint to Ryman saying I had wasted a day awaiting collection and that I wasn't happy to lose anymore time rearranging another collection timeslot. I didn't get a response for 4 or 5 days but apologies were expressed. In the meantime I had disposed of the 35L boxes locally and went elsewhere for the 35XL boxes.

Difficult to navigate site with searches and insufficent product information re size.

I found the site difficult to navigate and there was not enough product information for me to make the correct choice. I did in the end order something (set of drawers for A4 paper). I wanted to use them for storage inside a cupboard but in the end they weren't really the right size. I also put something on my Wishlist which has never been notified of. I have used what I got in a different way but will not buy online again. I have always shopped at Horsham shop before so if what I want is not there I will not go online. I regularly shop in Robert Dyas store and online in Haywards Heath but they do not have as much stock as Horsham in the statioery line.

Great poster printing at Rymans

Once again I was really pleased with my printed posters that I collected from Rymans for a party we threw for my mother in laws birthday. The quality was great, they printed much better than I could’ve ever done on our home printer and looked so clear. They printed them really quickly too and the price was low too. Great service and product.
