I’ve always received great service from Perles & Co

I’ve always received great service from Perles & Co. My recent order was no exception – everything arrived well-packed and in perfect condition. When I had a small question, their customer support replied quickly and kindly. I really appreciate their professionalism and will definitely shop again!

Great selection

Has a great selection of crystal beads, jewelry-making tools and supplies, and any other items you might want for arts and crafts. The craft tutorials on the website are also very helpful. The orders come nicely packaged using reusable bags, and the free gifts with each order are useful and appreciated. The items from the Pure Crystal line (which I saw was created by Perles & Co) and the Perles & Co tools are of especially impressive quality, which I highly recommend! The only thing which is a bit annoying is that if you do not pay for expedited shipping, you can expect to wait about 3 weeks to receive your order. However, if you place a larger order (~250 EUR+), the cost of expedited shipping goes down by a lot (<5 Euros). And no worries; you will not have to pay any additional taxes if you live within the EU and order from the version of the website ending in co.uk.

I have just received my first order…

I have just received my first order from Perles&Co and I'm thrilled to bits! A glorious box of beads in every colour & finish. They stock top quality beads in colours/finishes that are hard to find normally. The items are well packed & securely posted. The staff are fantastic & patient (I got my postcode mixed up with my house number when ordering - totally my fault, and my parcel went back to France before it was very kindly sent out to me a second time). I'm so happy, I'm already planning my next purchase. Some reviewers have complained about additional import taxes and I think this is unfair on Perles. Since Brexit (which I didn't support), we are no longer members of the EU & so there may be import VAT & handling to pay. This is a normal factor with any purchase from abroad. It is unfortunate that some people are unaware of this. I buy from all over the world and I will be keeping Perles on my suppliers list now I've found them :) Well done Perles & thank you!

Great range and great response

I use Linhasita waxed cord in my work with gemstone beads. Most suppliers offer and range of basic vibrant colours which do not work well with the subtle shading of natural stones. Then I found Perles & Co on line. Brilliant! They carry a fantastic range of colours which work beautifully. I have placed a couple of orders with them now and I have been very pleased with the packaging of my items and the response times. Especially since I am in UK and the parcels have to come through Customs.

Uk buyers watch for customs charges

I live in England….I’m being honest when I say I have had a good experience with this online shop. I thought this shop was very reasonably priced and was keen to do business with them. That is until I got an invoice from FedEx who apparently paid my customs charges for me.
My shopping was calculated and with conversion from euros to GBP amounted to £286

FedEx have now sent me an invoice see below

Import duty
£7.11

Tax (VAT)
£58.05

Disbursement fee
£62.75

Payment due
****£127.91

Apparently I am completely liable for these unreasonable charges.

This is a warning to all uk based shoppers, never look a gift horse in the mouth!

A very very expensive shopping experience.

Dear customer,
as England is not a member of the European Union, you do not pay VAT when you place your order.

However, your country and the carrier may require payment of import taxes and customs duties on receipt of your order, which may be higher or lower, depending on the shipping method selected, the value of your order or its volume.

Please note that, as the sender, we have no influence over these charges imposed by your country.
Please contact Fedex for a detailed explanation of what you have been charged.

Otherwise, please send us your order number to contact@perlesandco.com if you would like more information.

Thank you for your understanding.

Perles and Co has wonderful customer…

Perles and Co has wonderful customer service! When the postal service lost my package, they didn’t hesitate to replace it free of charge and send a second package. They were a pleasure to deal with and always responded very quickly to my emails. I am from Canada and I have not found another company with such an extensive selection of beads and supplies. I will definitely be ordering again!

Excellent service

Excellent service.

I have ordered from this store two times now. I live in the UK and their postal costs are very reasonable and you have several options to choose from to control the costs of postage. They have a great range of products at competitive prices. I did have a question about one of my items, and they handled my query quickly. I was very happy with the way they resolved it. The communication with the company was always helpful and professional. I received my products very quickly and I could track my items once posted. I will definitely be ordering from this company again.

I am happy with my first order. The Efcolor items I ordered are original and the standard shipping price was only 2.50 €. The items were well-packed and the delivery time was normal. Also communicating with the seller was easy and timely.
