What does Buy Me Once do?
We only sell long-lasting products that we can stand behind. To ensure everything is made to last, we examine the products themselves, their manufacturing story, and develop meaningful relationships with the makers. We only work with people we trust. In a world that's always trying to sell you more stuff, we want to be different. We're committed to changing the way we shop, from buying for the short term to buying once. When we buy once we build deeper connections with the things we own. When it gets ‘old' we don't throw it away - we restore it, polish it or fix it. We understand that the things you will love the most only get better with age. Buying once turns a purchase into a lifelong possession. Only buy things once. Love things that last.

Despatch times are pitifully slow
Reviewed on 2021-03-24T07:36:30
Despatch times are pitifully slow, it has been 6 days and the courier still does not have my item,it is only a small item that could have been sent by 1st class snail mail and been here already
After several emails back and forth between myself and customer care, including them claiming Royal Mail had delivered, even though they were not the courier of choice, I was informed they were investigating why my parcel had still not been despatched, despite the fact I had paid for one day despatch.
90 minutes after the last communication the courier picked my item up, now I play a waiting game on a delivery window.
I have been offered a discount on a future shop, which I find laughable, there is no way I would repeat my mistake, there has been no offer to refund the one day despatch payment or any actual apology or offer of trying to make things right.

Very happy with the products purchased…

Very happy with the products purchased and the speed in which products are delivered.Worth noting that we've not needed to contact customer services but items that would take longer to deliver (due to being made to order), we were given multiple warnings and we've been really happy!

I was looking for fair-trade…
Reviewed on 2021-02-05T10:13:45
I was looking for good quality fair-trade trunks for my man that are comfortable and sexy.I asked on various Facebook groups and was directed to this company. I liked the name of it and then found these nice trunks by Rozenbroek made in England. I ordered three pairs and they are really lovely, just right. Simple, classy, comfortable. But one of them had a rather tight elastic. When I wrote to ask what I can do about the one with the tight elastic they replied saying they’ll ask the maker what they can do. Rozenbroek made us a new pair with a softer elastic, which is just fantastic! The customer service was personal, friendly, swift and professional. It was great to converse with someone that understood me easily. I couldn’t recommend BuyMeOnce highly enough and look forward to my mans sexy trunks lasting for a long long time. I'm a very happy customer!

So bad, it’s almost comical.
Reviewed on 2020-12-23T09:09:09
Unfortunately the service from buymeonce comprises a heady mix of unimaginably bad communication,a calamitous lack of organisation and general incompetence.
They seem to have no idea what’s in stock and/or what’s been dispatched. There’s no way to contact buymeonce by phone and emails could go unanswered for days. You’re unlikely to speak to the same person consecutively and seemingly no one there communicates with each other. Not one guarantee of ‘letting me know’ was fulfilled within their own deadline and the promise of dates for dispatch and timelines for delivery were transparently unrealistic and inaccurate.
I’m not being unreasonable. I’d expect a delay because of the COVID related port delays (if anyone knew it wasn’t in stock) but these guys don’t have a clue what’s going on.

Highly recommended. A great company.

We used BuyMeOnce again to purchase more cups and saucers from the Loveramics range.The cups and saucers are of very high quality and the items were very carefully packed and delivered quickly. My wife and I are very pleased with this company. Jessica was very helpful and we are absolutely delighted with our purchase. An old school company that puts its customers first and goes out of its way to ensure satisfaction. Thank you!

44 Days Before I Received What I Ordered! (UPDATE: Partially refunded)
Reviewed on 2020-09-12T13:29:40
I ordered a pair of large socks on July 30th, it's taken until September 12th to receive the correct socks.I was originally contacted a day or two after I made the initial order to say that the size I wanted was out of stock, so I could either wait a couple of weeks or receive a refund. I was in no rush, so I was happy to wait those 2 weeks.
Sure enough after those 2 weeks were up, I received some socks! However, they were the wrong size. After a few days of back and forth, I was told to send them back and they would send out the correct size. I was expected to pay for the return, which I declined and requested that they sort out a prepaid label. After 10 days of no response, I emailed again and I finally ended up with a label a few days later. I posted them a day or 2 after that, and finally received the correct socks about a week later.
Overall, I'm terribly disappointed with the company. Karen from their support team was certainly responsive and helpful, but this wait time was absolutely ridiculous, and I'm personally insulted that I was offered no compensation for the hassle.
I wanted to save a few pounds, but I should've just ordered from Amazon with next-day delivery. As other reviewers have said, this seems to be a poorly run dropshipping operation.
UPDATE:
I posted the same review to FEEFO (which they're very active on) and received a large response profusely apologising for the particularly bad experience. They then proceeded to partially refund my order for all of my troubles, which was the kind of gesture I was expecting when there were difficulties initially.

Expensive, unreliable reseller
Reviewed on 2020-07-27T07:10:33
Ordered goods from the site. After two weeks no goods. Got in touch. Got a swift email back to say they "were pushing their supplier".Followed up a week later and a week after that and ....... with the same result. Have now issued a letter before action and anticipate having to take legal action to get my money back.
These people are great at self-promotion (founded by an advertising executive) but not so great at customer satisfaction, price or anything else. AVOID.

This site doesn't appear to hold any stock. When you place an order, they simply place an order with their suppliers.It's a waste of time and money.
What is the point of using this site, when you can just go straight to the supplier? I have done some digging and see quite hefty markups on certain goods that are for sale straight from the manufacturer.
