Helpful, attentive, trustworthy - good service
Elliot listened to my request for a new TV, made a few suggestions, followed up and the TV arrived promptly the next day.

Thank you for your wonderful feedback
I had a really great experience
I had a really great experience at this shop! So friendly and helpful, taking their time to find exactly what I needed — my cartridge, Cambridge gear, and a cable. They patiently explained everything and answered all my questions, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Felt really cool walking out with everything sorted. Highly recommend!
Thank you !!!

Excellent service
Excellent service. Ordered over the phone and picked up from the store an hour later. They added carrying handles to the box which made my journey back on the tube more comfortable. My son was delighted with the turntable and has started his journey into the world of vinyl albums.

Thank you Elliot !!!
Elliot at Richer Sounds made our phone and email transaction (I live on the Orkney Islands, off the North of Scotland!) completely painless. He was pleasant, efficient, and seemed really to care about the service he was offering. He even followed up to make sure everything was going well. Thank you!

As usual I received exemplary service from Richer Sounds. I wasn’t quite happy with some speakers I had bought so they exchanged them for some other ones with no hesitation. They also made it really easy for me to do this via dpd. If only all companies took customer service so seriously.

Thanks for leaving us a 5* review. It really does make the hard work we put into customer service worthwhile.
Simply the best service and value
The service from Richer Sounds is simply brilliant. Nothing is too much trouble for them, they will head out to see your house free of charge and provide advice as to the right TV and audio solution and will always give the right guidance on what products to buy (not simply the most expensive). They also always seem to have very compelling promotions on offer. The only place to buy a TV as far as I’m concerned. Special mention to Steve who heads the Holborn store in Central London.
