    Advantages Advantages massive range of crazy gifts, prices

    Disadvantages Disadvantages products frequently out of stock due to popularity

    Who are Hawkin's bazaar? Hawkin's bazaar are a company who started off as a local toyshop at the Hawk Inn (hence their name). After the success of the toyshop, they became a niche mail order company in 1973 and since then have become a supplier of 'things you thought had gone for ever and things you never knew existed'. It is now possible to order their products online, by mail order and in one of many high-street stores. They offer an extensive range of unusual and downright random toys, gifts, gadgets and curiosities that are sourced out to appeal to many ages and tastes. I first discovered ... more

    5 Stars For things you never knew existed! 05/11/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages easy to find and great new ideas

    Disadvantages Disadvantages postage and packaging is a little bit pricey

    Stuck on ideas to get for a christmas stocking filler the website came up on a search engine. I had already seen the shop in town and knew how good the products were. A site containing all kinds of gifts from the past was ideal for some nostalgic memories to bring back to the elder members of my family. Not to mention newer items as well! Hawkins Bazaar is a site jam packed with all kinds of goodies ranging from a jim'll fix it soap on a rope to a flying pig! It is set out in an easy to understand set up, each link clearly displayed so you instantly know where to go and what to do! If you have ... more

    1 Star Hawkins BAD Bazaar! 29/12/2009
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Ok if you don't have any issues with your delivery/order.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages NO CUSTOMER SERVICE - TOO BIG FOR THEIR BOOTS!

    I have purchased items in their shops and would recommend, if you must buy from this company, you do the same. DON'T, whatever you do, buy from them on-line or preferably use companies such as "I want one of those", "Presents for him/her", Prezzybox.com - all of whom know what customer service is! I ordered over £100 of items from Hawkins at the end of November and the money was taken out of my account on 2nd Dec. No confirmation from the company as to when it would all be delievered other than their standard 3-5 working days. Three weeks later I'd had no apology, no contact, no explanation ... more
