Just placed an order for stuff for my beardie set up from surrey pet supplies only then to receive an email saying they no longer do deliveries so they have refunded my order Im a bit disappointed as they were considerably cheaper than my local store saving £30 just on one of the items i had ordered :-(

So just thought id share in case any of you used them and were planning on ordering

You only just noticed this?Didn't you get the email like a week ago?And on most forums,saying there closing down the website side of things.

They should have put something on the main site saying as much,Or not allowed people to even place orders etc.

I just switched to using blue lizard,seem to take forever to post things so far :)

Swell always seem to have afew items out of stock,everytime i look at placing an order.

i'm gutted that they closed the online shop - been a while since i needed anything like that but they were always the cheapest!

It's strange - most shops do away with the actual shop and just do online - retail shop must be doing very well. It's a bit of a trek for me but doable if i need enough stuff so not too bad.

Everytime i look at filling an order on swell,there's always one or two items on my list that's out of stock.

so far i've not used them,I used that blue lizard shop.Seem to have good prices etc.

I never used sps cuz they were cheap only.Good service,fast shipping,good range of items and ofc prices.

I can't sing the praises of livefoodsbypost.co.uk enough, their prices are great, delivery is quick, they do food as you can probably work out but their equipment range is brill and I find the prices reasonable. Pays to shop around though.
