Did not buy anything as the shop in Buckfastleigh was overfull with furniture and stuff.... It was dangerous to walk around - trip hazards and must be a fire risk with all the clutter... I am elderly and have mobility issues and did not stay long. It was not this bad with the old manager - now its like an assault course. Can someone please get it cleaned up before someone is badly hurt - thank you

A simple purchase. Replacement castor wheels, not a big purchase but it went smooth and very well priced. Thank you

Don't bother. Quite possibly the rudest people on the planet. From now on my stuff will be going on freeads.
