Cedarandtin Anmeldelser 

This is a scam! They are advertising goods eg birdhouses, hedgehog protections, plus many other items supposedly handmade, carved etc by elderly craft men and women with a few original items to be sold before they retire. They are not artisans they are thieves on a grand scale. This should be investigated urgently!!

Deceptive and well organized scam, mass produced not hand made in the UK , total rip off

Complete and Utter FRAUD COMPANY STAY WELL CLEAR OF THEM. advertised a hand carved wooden bird box, when it eventually arrived after over three weeks, it was a plastic replica. Emails sent requesting a refund and returns postal label no response. The issue has now been put in the hands of my credit card provider for a claim back on the purchase.

Scam! I bought Ted's hedgehog house for over £90 after falling for some AI generated rubbish. It finally arrived after a couple of weeks. The quality is at best poor, and is nothing like the advert suggested. The label under my address label shows it originates in China. The "handmade" (supposedly by Ted Bramwell of Clun, Shropshire) Hedgehog house is meant to have a baffle plate behind the entrance, I'm baffled why it hasn't been fitted to mine! The roof is full of more holes than Ted's back story. It's absolutely rubbish. Far from the lovingly crafted item suggested in the advert. There is a nice window for the soaking wet hedgehogs to look out of. I'm sure they'll be delighted. Avoid Cedar and Tin at all cost.

The item I received was not as described and very poor quality, they said it was made in the UK but was posted from china, avoid at all costs.

I originally wrote a scathing review because the item never arrived, though they said more than once that it would be with me soon. When read the Trustpilot reviews, I thought, "I've been scammed" and so wrote a review saying they were criminals and scammed. (I don't know where that review went — I can't see it.)

However, it arrived yesterday and it seems exactly as advertised: entirely made of lapped larch wood. It feels pretty strong, too. I cannot give them 5 stars because it arrived so late.

I must say that my experience doesn't chime with others' who have (as I thought I did originally), left very negative reviews. My guess is that they've had an unusually positive result from their advert and so have been overwhelmed by the number of orders.

I was stupidly taken in by this ROGUE company, who have basically 'stolen' my money by a totally misleading, Fake website..
£71 from my account, no acknowledgement. THIEVES.
I now realise they are based in Hong Kong with possibly a back street office somewhere in England.
DO NOT BUY FROM THIS THIEVING SETUP.

I purchased a rucksack purporting to be made by a Leeds craftsman whose lease is expiring and whose arthritis is crippling him.
Very convincing but total AI fabrication.
I was taken in completely and should have checked this site first, no idea what I'll receive but I'm hoping I'll get my money back from credit card company.
Can't believe I fell for this, how these people can live with themselves I don't know.

Only got one star because I couldn’t give it nil. Absolute disgrace. Bought a bird box, claimed to be carved out of a single piece of wood, no joins, no glue. Appeared to be an English company. What arrived was plastic, with clear joins and visible glue . I immediately contacted the company and said I wanted a refund. They said they were happy to take it back at my expense for shipping. To HONG KONG! Alternatively, I could keep it and get a 25% refund. I’m absolutely livid, and so disappointed. The whole advert is a complete misrepresentation

Purchased what was advertised as hand made wooden bird houses but they turned up as plastic. They wanted me to return the items to Hong Kong at my expense.
AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

WOULD HAVE PREFERRED TO GIVE THEM ZERO RATED BUT TRUST PILOT WILL NOT ALLOW THAT

Awful. I completely rip off Avoid like the plague!!

Noticed that the return address is China when goods are hand made in somerset. AI search confirms that is all a scam. Asked for a refund within hours of purchase but told I need to return the item to Hong Kong at my expense.

Keep spamming me, people seem to be disappointed in their products, but the adverts look like Ai generated rubbish to me , It would be good if people could post pictures of what they actually received versus the picture.

This scheming lying company also operate under 'Back yard Goods'...
and will no doubt operate under another colourful title as well along the way...
Their websites are done beautifully with great storylines and beautiful photos but when you look you can see it's all AI. There is no Betty or Nell living in some lovely rural part of England. It's all cheap and utter tack from China. Shame and more shame on them..
Heavenly God let us pray that these scheming, lying, repugnant filthy theives don't somehow, by complete default get run down by a juggernaut...

I bought the Cozy-glow kitty lamp thinking it would be a small lamp with jewel like colours and beautiful green eyes. From the images on their website it looked like a lamp made of stained glass. It claims each lamp is hand painted with "Black outline and base, cobalt blue / amber / gold panels, green eyes" and that is not what arrived.
The colours are not like stain glass but badly spray painted insipid colours.
DO NOT BUY!!
It looks like there are 5 star reviews from Trust Pilot on their site so I stupidly didn't do much research into the company and made an impulse purchase. Don't do what I did!
Usually for Trust Pilot reviews you can click on the review and it takes you to the TP site but these don't. It's a review with 5 green stars to make it look like a TP review.
They offer 30 day money back guarantee. Let's hope that is at least true!

DON'T JUST DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY ITS A MASSIVE CON, WOODEN CARVINGS TURN OUT TO BE PLASTIC AS I USED A CREDIT CARD I WILL GET MY MONEY BACK AND THE BANK CAN TAKE THEM TO TASK. THEY ALSO LIE ABOUT DELIVERY TIMES AS I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF THE ITEM I RECEIVED CAME FROM CHINA.
I WILL SAY NO MORE YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

Complete fraudulent company that is just marketing scam products at an extortionate price. Beware as I would never use them again as there products are actually very dangerous.

Scam alert, Chinese drop shipping with fake story of artisans. Returns policy clearly shows it's Chinese warehouse

Fraudulent company using AI to create fake stories of artisans under hardship. Company is deep in China and steal credit card details and rip everyone off.

I came across an ad for a lovely lady called Gwen in Hebden Bridge who was ending her business making Moggy Lamps due to arthritis and that there were only a limited number left, exclusively available through cedarandtin. When I went on the website to get one of these supposedly hand made stained glass cat lamps it turned out that they are also made by Bonnie in Minnesota who is also retiring her business due to arthritis and Lorna in Australia. The descriptions and marketing blurb are interchangeable. My guess would be that these are mass produced, cheap items from China and the whole story is something that would have gone well on Jackanory. Identical lamps are available on eBay for half the price with no fairy story.
