Very good company
Pretty good on their return policy (my item was greatly damaged when it arrived). Only negative is that they should cut down on the LGBTQ and all this "look at us, we're supporting the new current trend and fighting evil " promos/emails cause it's getting pretty annoying.
Pretty good company other than that!

CDs with good prices
CDs with good prices. The delivery is quick and I have a good experience after ordering several CDs. Nice that I also received a special code for a discount. I'll give Rarewaves 5 stars.

Disks are Zone B - US buyers beware.
I was surprised to find that the disks were in Zone B. This makes the disks either unplayable or cost me almost $2000.00 USD to get a Zone-Free player here in the US.

Rarewaves is the GOAT!
The combination of excellent prices, a great reward points scheme, the 10% discount offer that happens toward the end of every month plus great customer service means Rarewaves is the only place I now use to build my 4K collection. Orders take a bit longer to arrive than places such as Amazon, but this is really no problem for me.

Good prices with regular sales. Good service if something goes wrong. Shipping is a bit slow, but that's not their fault.

Good value product
Good value product. Good, responsive (by email) customer service. The delivery is by Whist, soconded by Royal Mail, I believe. Only slight negative is that it took 7 or more full working days for my orders to arrive.
