I received a birthday book for my 60th…

I received a birthday book for my 60th and loved it. I ordered 1 for a cousin and was given a date for delivery. While waiting I realised 2 other friends birthday was coming up, so I ordered 2 more. The delivery date had passed by some days, so I contacted the company and was told that it had been delivered. They sent me a photo of the door which was not my door. Through the help of Laura, I was offered my money back or a replacement. I accepted a replacement. The other 2 didn't arrive. Laura showed me where the address was and I went there and got the last 2, which were correctly addressed. They went to the wrong address due to a bad postman. The replacement came but was in a poor state. Laura then sent out another replacement which came due to another postman who was excellent after finding out what had happened. I thank Laura for her exceptional service and will recommend this company every time. Will be making another order very soon.

Period obituaries retrieved for research.

Two newspapers for 2011 and 2013 purchased, both received within a week, well packaged and in perfect condition. Requested for original obituaries included in each issue. Historic Newspapers provide a valuable and useful service from their comprehensive resources. Intend to order several more papers in the New Year; highly recommended.
