Great Prices and Excellent Customer Service

Really don’t understand the poor reviews. Bought a Barbour jacket at a fraction of the price that it was being offered elsewhere. Ordered 10pm Wednesday evening and it was here by 4.30pm on Friday. Excellent quality and very quick delivery. Item ended up being too small (an oversight on my part). They have already arranged an exchange for a larger size and sent out a returns label. On a Sunday too ! Cannot fault the quality, price or service.

Fast Delivery

Bought a Barbour jacket of them last week, saved £90 quid from store that I nearly bought from in town. Ordered on the Saturday arrived on the Monday, excellent service.

Poor customer service, faulty goods not replaced

Bought some Muck Boots from this company which split at the side of the heel within a year of normal gardening use. Despite these boots having a one year guarantee they have refused to honour this suggesting they haven’t been ‘cleaned and treated’! I am old enough to have used wellington boots for many many years and none have split like this before so the rubber they use must be of very poor quality and therefore does not justify the premium price charged.

The Highlands are in the UK

All companies that can't deliver to my mainland UK postcode deserve one star. Getting items to the Highlands is not rocket science, we are closer to this company's HQ than Cornwall is.

Bought some Haix boots in August 2023

Bought some Haix boots in August 2023, by the middle of November 2023 all the eyelets had snapped rendering the boots unusable. Contacted Sam Turners & Sons directly three times and did not receive one reply. I have contacted Haix directly who are the same, got your money so don't care about after care. As such the company I work for will no longer buy anything from Sam Turner & Sons again, nor will be but Haix, Arbortec all the way going forward.

Cheeky wee discount!

Popped in the Piercebridge store to buy a tree. Lots of choice at a reasonable price. When paying, I just happened to ask about NHS discount. A cheeky wee 10% off was applied. Great customer service.

Great experience

Recently ordered a coat as had tried it on elsewhere and this site had the best price. Extremely pleased with it still, many thanks. Very swift and careful delivery (2 days after placing order) and notified throughout. Very pleased, thank you.

Quick and easy when buying, unacceptable support

No problems at all when ordering from this company - very fast and efficient. Unfortunately my Ego mower quickly developed a fault and this is when my problems began. Multiple errors, things going to wrong addresses, constantly chasing for an update, it really seemed like a complete lack of organisation. Took about two months to be fixed and returned to me. Unfortunately it developed a fault again and I'm currently another two months in and still waiting for it back or a permanent replacement (they did get me a temporary one after a couple of weeks, more wrong deliveries and multiple times chasing). Real shame, and every now and then I do get someone who seems to care, but it's such a mess I couldn't possibly recommend, sorry.

despite the lost delivery, the replacement was immediate ….

I ordered a 2 litre bottle of linseed oil, on the day of the order, the carriers advised that delivery would be the next day. 2 days later, it hadn't arrived so I 'phoned the suppliers fully expecting to get the usual runaround that we get when we issue 'phoned complaints, so I also sent a back-up e/mail whinge ….

After 3 rings a guy called Matt answered, checked on the package status, he assured me that it had been accepted by the carriers but it seemed to have been mislaid.

''Don't worry'' he said ''I'll send another out today and it will be with you tomorrow''. Then I had an e/mail from Jemma 'Leave it to me' she said.

The 'phone convo was yesterday at about 14:00 and half an hour ago, the replacement consignment was delivered.

A first class service …. Thank You Sam Turner & Sons.

Lightning-swift service

Ordered a pair of boots from this retailer because they were the cheapest online price. Placed the order just after 2pm on Friday. The delivery arrived before 10am the following morning - astonishingly fast given we didn’t pay any extra for a priority delivery. Thanks for great service.
