Service provided by brickshop is excellent.
Due to no fault of their own the box was damaged despite it being protected/overboxed, more an issue for the delivery company.
However, they offered to replace it, but that would have delayed the fun of building it.
The follow up service was superb and they would have replaced it if anything was missing, thankfully there wasn't.
