“Purchased my Pen Wizard and a set of the end mills required for it a couple of years back, lovely little machine, the patterns you can create with it are endless, pricey but worth every penny.”

Thanks for the kind words - the team here work hard to get products booked, packed and shipped as quickly as we can, which is impressive for a small team. We hope to help again in the future. Kind regards, Felix General Manager @ The ToolPost

“Everything was excellent from browsing the site to the quality of the tools except the price of delivery.i can’t see why you should pay the same price for delivery of a 2kg parcel as you would a 20kg parcel,sorry to be negative because other than that the service was excellent”

Thanks for taking the time to feedback and we're glsad everything arrived safely. Just for openness and honesty, the reason for the flat rate shipping tiers is because that's how couriers opperate - to them it is still a 'parcel' which an individual is able to handle on their own, hence the price being fixed up to 30KG. It is still a booking, an allocation, a collection and a delivery. Since it is domestic delivery (rather than by air), it costs them the same to transport a buffing wheel as it does a small lathe and so it costs us the same too. I hope that helps clarify things. Thanks again for the positibve feedback, which has been passed on to the team :)

“Knowledgeable staff still took the time to check my request as the photo didn’t match what I wanted. I was sent my item almost straight away and so within 2 days of my enquiry I was using the adapter. Thank you”

“The Bead Forming Tool arrived on time as promised, well packaged and clearly addressed. The tool looks to be just what I wanted. The tool was a good price but I do think the postage was rather expensive.”

“Delivery and product were excellent, I would have rated 5* but for delivery charges, as I expect delivery to be free when I spend say 30 pounds or more as is now normal with other suppliers. The delivery charges make the toolpost rather expensive. Additionally there goods were delivered in cardboard box that was at least 5 times bigger than was necessary and this then had to be packed out with plastic bubble wrap and paper, what a waste and I had to get rid of this excess packaging.”

Good morning and thank you for your feedback - we're glad everything arrived safely and quickly. I think it is worth saying that free delivery on a £30 order would actually lose us money (ultimately putting us out of business and thus of no service to anyone) - we all have to protect margins to cover salaries, rents, business rates and also the very charges which we incur for shipping, on which we make a nominal ammount to cover time for staff to pick, pack, book and ship the items. I also appreciate that packaging can sometimes appear to be overkill, however we recycle 95% of all packaging we receive to reduce wastage and as a result sometimes we use a lager box than neccessary - this does not affect the shipping cost, since ANY UK order upto 30kg is charged at a flat rate of £7.85 for next day courier/tracked delivery - we believe this is fair and reasonable. The alternative is to provide free shipping and increase product prices, but we don't believe this is fair or honest. The cost of shipping has to be covered somewhere in the system, and we feel this is the most open way of doing so as a retailer (manufacturers obviously have more room to play). Thanks again and we hope to be able to serve you again in the future.

“I needed a 1 inch x 8 TPI tap and Toolpost had a Beall spindle tap, just what I wanted, at a very good price so I ordered it. My tap was delivered the next day and arrived well packed. I was kept well informed on the progress of my order, excellent service. I will buy again from Toolpost and can recommend them to anyone.”

“The goods were delivered a month after I placed the order. I also did not receive an order confirmation when placing the order for some reason so was not sure if I had placed anything anymore, especially since nothing arrived. Possibly just a glitch as I have the impression normally service is pretty good.”

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate that at times delays can be frustrating - unfortunately in this instance we were awaiting the good from the manufacturers in the USA whom were also awaiting some items from further down in the supply chain. With regards to order confirmations, you should have definitely received one of these the moment you placed your order - at times these can find their way to junk or spam folders. If you ever have any worries or concerns or would like to be updated on your order, we are always here to respond to emails and calls. Thanks again for shopping with us and we hope you enjoy your purchases.
