The Eton wall light is a contemporary design with a sense of Art Deco styling. This light is the perfect companion for Olivers’ Albany light switches and Churchill sockets. The hardwood pattress and angular stem are available in any of the finishes available throughout the Olivers Range.

When placing an order with Olivers Lighting’s on-line shop, customers are presented with the option to provide additional information on why they are placing their order with Olivers Lighting Company and ways with which they feel we can improve our on-line shop.

Following are some of the comments from the last couple of months, excluding the common “previous customer“, “quality“, “ideal” type of reply.

How could we improve our on-line shop?

1. Products on offer
The switches and sockets are manufactured and assembled to order, hence why we don’t have special offers, sorry.

2. Identify postage and packaging before order
The software we used to build the shop only adds postage when a customer confirms their order prior to payment. This is mainly designed for shops that price per weight/quantity and need all quantity information prior to postage costs being calculated. Olivers have a standard price of £5.00 per order or £9.00 if purchasing wall lights, but the shop will again only add this once the order is confirmed, prior to payment.

Always read the Terms & Conditions of any on-line shop prior to purchase, especially if you haven’t used them before. Under our terms & conditions you will find the following information - All UK orders are charged at a flat rate of £4.17 (+VAT) for postage & packing, with the exception of Olivers’ wall lights, which are charged at £7.50 (+VAT) per order.

4. Include VAT
VAT is shown next to each product, in the shopping basket and at checkout.

5. Could have pictures showing switches from different angles etc. – (Please) have a picture of each colour of switch and wood.
There are plans for this in the future.

7. Images of what you’ve ordered in basket
I’m afraid this isn’t possible using our existing software.

8. A word of thanks for comments made by loyal and helpful customers…
Thanks for all the comments we receive, they are all read and very much appreciated!!

Those eagle eyed amongst you may have spotted the following Olivers Lighting advert in Period Ideas this month. We’ve been working on a new range of high quality lighting to complement our switches and sockets. As occasionally happens we’ve had a couple of delays with the supply of parts, and this has resulted in us falling a couple of weeks behind schedule.

If you’d like to contact us directly with your details, we’ll happily send you the literature when ready, or keep an eye out for additional updates both here and on the shop.

Whilst browsing the internet today for links to and mention of Olivers Lighting, I found the following old blog post which mentions our switches.

http://vintageatthecornerhouse.blogspot.com/2010/02/jobs-done.html

This led me to the ‘bloggers’ shop, which I thought may be of interest to some of our customers.

Vintage Wants advertise themselves as selling ‘vintage homeware and shabby chic collectibles’.
