For the most part
For the most part, the book was beautiful. The only thing is that the engraving on the front was coming off.

Very quick reply reference to payments…
Very quick reply reference to payments due to be taken from my acct x2 when only one book ordered. Was told only one ordered but but two did come out of bank. Has put me in areas for only a couple of days and you did reimburse the money. So not bothered because charges will be minimal.
Also the tracking app didn't work. To be honest the above is a little hiccup.
The book came today and I've just looked at it and it's absolutely amazing. I am so so pleased with it because my stepson is a mental man Utd fan and the quality of the cover is perfect. A big thank you for this amazing book and will definitely recommend you to friends and family Thank Mrs Baz Sayers

So disappointed as the book was not as described and I can't give it as a gift. In addition, the customer service experience has been really poor. Such a shame.

Disappointed
The book I received was folded and the cover and pages were creased, the package it came in was not folded or damaged at all, so it had to be done before shipping. This was going to be a gift and I am disappointed. I contacted the company days ago and still have not heard from them.
