Richer Sounds shipped used, unsealed products without any packaging TWICE.

Richer Sounds shipped a used, open/unsealed product, without any secure packaging. Inside was a pair of clearly used speakers covered in dust and hair.

When contacting customer services to request they be picked up and returned for refund, they said a refund would only be released after 10-14 days after receiving the returned speakers. They convinced me to accept a replacement and agreed to have the speakers picked up the next day.

However the delivery driver arrived with another unpackaged, open/unsealed box with dusty used-appearing product for a second time. I rejected the replacement speakers and the delivery driver said they usually send out customer returns and agreed they wouldn't be happy.

I've emailed customer services to make sure everything is in writing but no response.

Update: Customer services finally responded and I’m now waiting up to 14 days, after they receive the returned products, for my refund to be released. No apologies for the stress and time wasted while I attempt to resolve this.

I was most concerned to read your feedback and am currently investigating urgently as this is obviously very unusual to hear, especially considering with the way our warehouse operates it's stock. It goes without saying we would never intentionally supply a customer with anything other than a brand new unit unless specifically agreed otherwise for instance a clearance purchase.

I can see that our customer service team have been corresponding with you throughout and have since replied to your latest mail, but in meantime I have tried to reach you you by phone to resolve this, and left a message. If you could get back to me at your convenience I would be most grateful..

Got in contact with Matthew

Got in contact with Matthew, the manager of Bromley branch regarding my purchase. He was very much in listening mood and I was pleased that he did. He was most accommodating and I ended up making a purchase - a Dali.

Couldn't ask for more

Tell you what, the whole experience from phoning to find out about an older model TV that wasn't on your website to unpacking the set and turning on couldn't, i don't think, have been better - unless someone stayed to take away the cardboard (hoho).
Thanks for everything you did. Happy bunny.

Staff are really helpful as always

Staff are really helpful as always. I've bought loads from them over the years. Unfortunately I'm a bit disappointed with the Pure Classic H6 but that is nothing to do with Richer Sounds.

Great service and honest advice

Always have great service from Richer Sounds and honest advice which is very much appreciated. Small issue with a missing accessory which was sorted quickly between York and my local store. Do wish website pricing and availability was more accurate, especially on clearance deals.

Fantastic Service

Fantastic product at a very competitive price. The VIP scheme, at no extra charge qualified me for an extra discount plus extended guarantee.
Delivered on time. Also great customer service.
Great job all round. Well done
