Very easy ordering process. The board arrived quickly and was very well packaged. It's a beautiful piece and my chess etc looks amazing on it as a display. Couldn't be happier!

As an avid chess enthusiast
As an avid chess enthusiast, I recently acquired the Official Staunton 3.75" Staunton Classic Chess Pieces, and I must say, they exude timeless elegance and exceptional craftsmanship.
From the moment I opened the box, I was struck by the impeccable attention to detail. Each piece is meticulously carved with precision, boasting the iconic Staunton design.
Overall, the combination of exquisite craftsmanship, prompt delivery, and outstanding customer service makes the Official Staunton 3.75" Chess Pieces a must-have for any chess aficionado.

Superb customer services abs replacement of a slightly faulty chess board …
After receiving my Winchester integration chess set a couple of days ago, there was some kind of marking on dark square D4,
I took photos and sent them to the customer services team with an explanatory email., fully expecting that I would have to pay for the whole set to be returned in order to get a replacement sent back, Not only did the customer services team deal with my enquiry immediately (despite being around 5.30pm U.K. GMT, but they quickly said they would send me out another replacement chess board in two days and I could either keep or give away the faulty one to charity! They didn’t quibble or make me pay for returning the faulty board, in addition, Carl, the person that dealt with my emails was so professional, speedy and helpful. I cannot praise their team highly enough and I immediately got over the disappointment and stress of receiving the faulty board and the likely cost incurred of returning it. Staunton have far exceeded my expectations in every way. There would be no question of me ever going anywhere else, especially when so many other companies’ customer service departments deal with their customers so slowly and unhelpfully. In my view, Staunton has illustrated, it is a company by which all others should be measured. Justin. Bedford. Uk

Horrible Company DO NOT BUY
I purchased a chess set and they arrived completely broken, seems like it was dropshipped by some teenager in China. I contacted their support and they refused to refund me.
Don't buy this low quality mess.

Hi Chris
we don't offer next-day delivery service ? Upon reviewing the delivery manifest, it appears you opted for a 48-hour courier service on February 25th, and the delivery occurred on the 27th, in line with your selection. According to courier reports, while the outer packaging had slight markings, there was no damage to the product, as noted by the driver in their comments and report. We appreciate your feedback, but rest assured, we did deliver as scheduled
