Rich Griff Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Anyone use this company ? Anyone had an email from them about an order ? I have never heard of this company so have not bought any thing from them, so why an email from them. I have not opened the email not will I. Getting in contact with the bank now...

Nick Somerville Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Axminster.co.uk Also known as Axminster Tools or Axminster Power Tools. Long established and reliable company. However If you haven’t dealt with them then probably good idea to delete the email. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EarlyBird Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 2 minutes ago, Jon - Laser Engines said: Axminster are the proxxon dealer arent they? Yes I have been on there a few times and never had an email from them. Usually an company will only have an email if one registers with them. This is hard to explain.

Rich Griff Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 I did request some proxxon cataloques via proxxon site ? Anyway bank says account ok Will find Axminster tools email/phone number and in cogneto ask ... The email, unopened, suggested I ordered something from them, not the case. Didn't know they are proxxon agents... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basil Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 If you think the email is suspect just phone them up, use a number that you have sourced you self. (ie from the net, so you know its genuine). Then check what is the prob at source. Bas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff S Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I've used Axminster a lot. I bought both my Proxxon table saw and my bandsaw from them as well as hand tools. They supply good quality tools and provide excellent service in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Axminster Power Tools are a highly respected supplier - none better in my view. Excellent service possibly because they are a family company. Still worth checking that it's exactly the same company and not a lookalike. Perhaps your request for catalogues is the 'order'? Phone them and check.

Brian Sweeting 1 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 One trouble with Axminster is the lack of a fat wallet when you walk into their store. Did it once when passing through the town and just kept going, ooh I want one of those, for a good half hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Griff Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 As Brian says " I want I want I want !!!" ? Not had time to enguire of Axminster yet. Had an other email, what ever I have ordered is on its way ! I will not open these emails....maybe a mrx has bought a milling machine for me ????? I don't have that sort of luck, or know anyone who would do that for me... Probably proxxon site catalogue request results in nearest branch to me sending catalogues ? Makes sense, modern customer service cost if I was gunna buy stuff, it would from a nearest branch ? Anyway will be contacting Axminster hq... They are sending me a freebee, I can dream I suppose...

Rich Griff Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 Yep, emails were about catalogues which just arrived. Invoice total £0.00p. She has already asked " are there any prices in there ?", So she already knows... Spotted neat little rachet with a twisty handle. No idea as to cost, but will come in really handy for pug and Citroen cambelt covers. Why oh why oh why did they not use unreccessed fasteners, or put a hole in the inner wing so those fasteners are getatable ? Are french hands that small ? Barely enough room for a socket on a rachet ! Anyway made special tool for that application... Edit by mod - You know the CoC refers to using symbols to represent a swear word. Next time I see this the post will be deleted without explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
