Excellent Service from 'Wicked Uncle'

The service we recived was excellent - The item arrived when expected and was very well protected in a strong cardboard box as outer packaging.As it was intended as a birthday gift, we were very happy with the item being delivered in it's own packaging box without any address or postage stickers spoiling the it's appearance.

Wicked Nana!

Being a Nana some distance away, Wicked Uncle give me the opportunity to send exciting gifts, beautifully wrapped, to my grandchildren. Their suggestions for the age perfect toysare on point. Thank you Wicked Uncle (Nana) for giving such an excellent service!

Rather pricey

I bought the flying bee for my 7 year old great nephew’s birthday. It arrived on time. He was delighted with the packaging, card etc. Unfortunately the beewas broken within a few minutes of use! I wrote to Wicked Uncle & they immediately sent a replacement … very impressive. I haven’t heard how the second bee fared … I did suggest using it over a softer surface. I looked at buying a bug viewer for my 4year old g. nephew’s birthday. I found I could buy two for the same price elsewhere! For me that was a better solution for two young insect hunters. In all, although service was excellent I felt that prices were very high.

Brilliant service

It’s absolutely brilliant, you make your choices (it helps that they have age groups so you can’t make a mistake) choose wrapping and a very few days laterthe parcels arrive wrapped and ready to give, you can even choose a card to go with your gifts and they include an incredibly funny thank you card to give with your gifts!
