It's very fresh to have such good customer service, instead of a more common systematic approach from now a days. I have purchased a product from abroad and Aaron has been super quickly contacting me to help me with the delivery!
Will be shopping back here as far as I need a related product.

Locinox gate lock

Great knowledge & expertise given by Emily, Emily recommended the closest option available of a discontinued gate lock.

If TFS can not help, it'd be a lost cause, I would highly recommend.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review and for the valuable feedback. We are currently working on an alternative shipping option to help reduce the price for lower-value items. As our average product cost is a lot higher and the majority of products are fragile, we use DPD tracked to ensure safe delivery of items, but we do appreciate that this can lead to high shipping costs for spares and small products, so are doing our best to address this.
