I purchased the Epson EcoTank ET8550 printer on October 28, 2023, and I would like to share my experience with this purchase. Firstly, regarding the printer itself, I am extremely satisfied. The print quality, especially for photos, exceeded my expectations – the colors are vibrant, and the details are sharp. The automatic double-sided printing feature is an additional benefit that greatly facilitates work. The printer perfectly fits my needs, both for home use and for small office tasks. However, I must mention an aspect that was a source of stress. Namely, the order fulfillment time. I expected the delivery to take up to 4 business days, but on the fifth business day, not having received the printer yet, I contacted the store. The response came from an Irish customer service address, informing me that a reply might take up to 3 business days. This caused me concerns about whether I would receive the printer before the holidays. Eventually, the printer arrived on December 11, 2023. In summary, despite some issues with the delivery time, I am very satisfied with the purchase. The Epson EcoTank ET8550 meets all my expectations in terms of quality and functionality. I would recommend it to others, but I would also advise the store to work on improving communication and predictability of delivery times.

- the item I ordered was never delivered because it went missing apparently - I had to chase your reps for updates as I had no idea where the parcel was after 7 days - I had to follow up after reaching out first for a second update. All in all very very disappointing experience, never to order anything from you

Scammers! Avoid! EOS 2000D came in an original box, but without the kit lense. A cheaper one without IS was in the parcel inside FY. NEVER AGAIN.

Hello, Thanks for your message, I checked your order and see that you ordered theCanon EOS 2000D + 18-55mm DC (incl. Bag, Extra Battery and 64GB SD), you indicate in the review that you received a cheaper lens (the DC) instead of the IS version. This lens is not included in this package. Could it be that you thought the IS version would be included or did you see this somewhere? I would love to hear from you.

Disappointed and Surprised how a company like this is still working

I placed an order for a Fujifilm xs10.. weote an email with regards to delivery and address details.. the agent confirmed the same and informed whatever questions were asked.. a few days later i noticed the camera was out of stock soo i wrote back to the agent and was informed the stock was not updated and they do not have the camera in stock and will offer a refund.. this was supposed to be my first camera and such a bad experience from a third class company.. never buy anything from them

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. I am so sorry to read that your order has gone this way. The stock always takes some time to update, because we also have stores and then the item you wanted, is out of stock. My colleague tried to cancel the order, but his computer wasn't working, so he had to ask the administration to do so, that is why it took longer. I am so sorry that this would be your first camera and this was your experience with us and I will contact you via email to see if there is anything I can do for you.

I thought there would be a pack of film in the box. In the original sealed, there is.

Dreadful

Dreadful. Ordered an item worth over €500 more than 2 weeks ago ( 2 day delivery quoted). To date no sign of the item and no one seems to know where it is . I have sent them emails and, apart from the initial contact, nothing further.

When I entered my postal code on their website my adress came up wrong and wouldn't let me change it which caused loads of complications with delivery including me having to go to a postal depot to collect my parcel. Apart from that I found it decent possibly could include an invoice inside the parcel for future orders but apart from that it's great

How sad to read that you had this experience. I would like to sincerely apologise for that the investigation of your package took a bit long. The couriers should be given some time to find out what happened. I see that a refund has been initiated.

Bad delivery

I’ve bought a camera 13/11/2023 and I’ve not received yet. More than 10 working days and when I bought, it was saying that the delivery would be in 4/5 working days. I would have plans with that camera, but I had to cancel. I hope to receive something for apologize because that’s happening is not good. Thank you

Package lost, did not refund delivery costs.

Package was to be delivered in 2-3 days, paid 10 euro shipping. They lost the package, they did not refund delivery costs? Did not respond when I asked why they didn't.

Total garbage website. Product was not in stock as listed. Tried to order another product today and the payment software they use keeps rejecting my payment even though my bank has approved it. Total schlock.

Return policy is vague, I bought an incorrect item for my son and the cost to return was half the cost of the item. I could not see the return policy on the website, which meant I had to email my enquiry to get information. I know there is a cost to all businesses, but a little more transparency would be helpful. I am a returning customer as they have a wide choice of super products for photographer/videographers… it’s a shame, otherwise 5 stars would have been my rating
