Do not order from them. Total scam. I ordered 3 bird boxes. Cheap plastic crap, just about fit for the bin...

I have just fallen victims to Alan's last Rucsac scam as well and will be ringing credit card company ASAP.
Never thought I'd get caught but the story is VERY convincing, be aware!

I wish I'd read Trustpilot reviews of this sham of a company first! Iwas silly enough to fall for the blurb on 'Edwin's Hand Carved Wood Spirit Bird Box' It's solid ok, but nastyy moulded plastic and frankly cheap tat. 1 star rating is too generous.

A scam, ordered handmade wooden bird boxes with intricate carvings, supposedly made by a man who has to give up because of arthritis in his hands. Unfortunately ordered three as Xmas presents, two have just arrived and they are moulded plastic! SCAM beware!

I have only given one star because there are no negative stars. What an absolute shower of unethical sh#t. They work from a flat in London, not Hebden Bridge, and have a similar operation in New Zealand. Please be aware this is not the work of a little old lady who is retiring , this is a scam by two devious individuals who are based in the Far East. Please people, do a Companies House Check, and all will be revealed. ( also trading as Back Road Goods) with an address in America. They also gave themselves permission recieve monthly recurring payments from my account. The phone number is the same as given in the English advert (+1 724-865-6442) which is in the west indies. Please be diligent.

A total SCAM if ever there was one absolutely disgusting. Hook you in with a totally fictional story and then send you what is best described as RUBBISH only fit for the bin. I wouldn't even give them 1 star on here if it was possible!

Thanks to good old-fashioned Trustpilot and dare I say it, the AI description of the name I had entered into Google - one Kit Ashdown who it is alleged, runs Cedar and Tin from "the box room". They almost had me. Thing is though, Google needs to clean-up it's own page because as I was about to look for something in particular, up pops this website in my feed because it was about birds, namely Wrens and Google knows what I Google. Everything is made in China apparently. Anyway, all's well that ends well and thanks again to Trustpilot.

A total scam!! On 16 October 2026, I attempted to purchase a decorative item described as 'Gwen's Cosy-Glow Moggy Lamp' from the website CedarAndTin Co. for a total price of £32.95 GBP. I paid and had a feeling something was wrong. I investigated and found out that the website was an online shopping scam that uses stolen images from legitimate artisans to trap victims, I contacted the merchant to complain and reported the matter to my bank.
A certain Julie from the company sent me an email, saying I will be receiving a refund. Let’s see..

Regarding Nell’s hand-tuned rain drum, it’s just an AI-created advert. Reality is you can buy this from AliExpress for £6, and after a quick look at what else they sell i’ll be willing to bet you can get all of their products from AliExpress for a fraction of the price they are selling it for.

Don’t give them your money or your personal information.

Total scam ordered hand carved bird boxes got two plastic items supposed to look like the boxes also had to send them to China to get refund contacted bank they got a full refund the company didn't contest the claim They belong to a group of companies all running same scam all items on their websites claim to be made by local craftsmen total lie they come from China Avoid at all costs

Scam! A whole made up story about a woman hand crafting winter bird nests from her shed in the Somerset Levels. Read well, but quickly realised the product didn't match the narrative.

This is a scam. Unfortunately I did not research before I bought. Claims to be hand carved wood, what actually arrives is a plastic moulded item form China. Do not touch this website!

Another scam company. Cedar & Tin do exist but these guys are misrepresenting themselves as the real deal with sob stories.

Beware. All ads are AI and fake stories. Company sits in deep China and steal credit card details etc. highly fraudulent company and complete lies on ads.

Please avoid falling for the various AI-generated adverts & the site. Customer product reviews are supposed to look like genuine Trustpilot ones, using the star system - but they don't exist on Trustpilot. This has been reported.

This company is purporting to sell various 'craft items' made in the UK, with very low production runs/'only stock left' - as every business 'is closing'. Even though items are supposed to be UK-produced & shipped, the ONLY returns address is in China.

Following research, some of the featured businesses don't exist at their reported locations, or the address simply doesn't exist. The parent company has a UK-registered address; it has been reported to the UK authorities because it is misleading customers. Products currently offered are: 'Rain chimes'; rucksacks; woven bird houses - there are others.

Thank god I'm savvy enough to always come here first before I bought a hand crafter cat lamp for my mum's birthday present!!

This is a con. This company send cheap plastic rubbish, not wood or whatever they claim. They are well known as scammers, but I only found out the hard way after ordering 2 hand carved wooden birdhouses for over £80 which included a £10 tip for the pensioner who 'carved' them. DON'T LET IT HAPPEN TO YOU. THEY ARE THIEVES.

"Alan's last rucksacks" is a scam. I was taken in by a convincing story about an elderly man who has been producing handmade rucksacks for the last 40 years, and the building he worked in had been sold to convert into luxury apartments. I decided to buy one of his "last remaining stock" using PayPal but got a pop up message saying there was a problem with PayPal please use another method of payment - instant red flag, so did a search on this company and found all these negative reviews which confirmed my suspicions. It's concerning that they can get away with posting these elaborate stories in order to fool the buying public.

The advertisment is just one more in the long line of scams advertising mass produced Chinese rubbish. When will Government agencies step in?? To stop all these. What is Trust Pilot doing about them?

I have ordered a bird feeder lady. My boyfriend has just had a so called wooden bird house, which has never seen wood only cheap and nasty material that is pre moulded. I am holding out no hope for this item and certainly won't expect it to have seen bronze.
Another scam from the Chinese.
