Verified reviewNeeded a canvas and couldn't find the size I needed easily or delivered quick enough. I found a good price canvas 2 pack and the offered next day for a reasonable fee. Whilst it didn't arrive the next day, it arrived the next and in time for my needs. Will probably use again.

Thank you for taking the time to review us. I've looked into your order and see that you ordered on the Friday before the Bank Holiday Monday and we despatched on the following Wednesday. This took a little longer than usual and was no doubt slowed down by the long weekend. You'll be pleased to hear we're now well back within our 1-2 days despatch targets. I hope you enjoy your goods and if you need any help setting it up please don't hesitate to contact us. Kind regards, Guy.
