Delivery is a standout feature of the online store, with customers consistently highlighting the perfect, quick, and neat shipping of their orders. Many reviews emphasize the speed of delivery, often mentioning that items arrived promptly and well-packaged. The quality of products is another recurring theme, with customers expressing satisfaction about the exceptional stationery selection, including unique items that are often hard to find elsewhere. The careful packaging further reinforces the positive experience, ensuring that products arrive in pristine condition.
One of the products unfortunately arrived damaged. The rest is in good condition and really beautiful. Could this be due to transport?

- I am disappointed: the mini mechanical pencils are much smaller and thinner than they appeared to me in the photos. - Another point: I wanted to modify my order sent to add a discount promo code and I sent you a text message to the indicated number for that. I have not received any response from you.

Order placed with a delivery guarantee by Chronopost that arrived more than eight days later. There is no instruction manual in the box to explain how to charge the converter or adjust the nib. Too bad.

Response from Papeterie Makkura
Hello Antoine,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that the delivery was so long; the package was shipped on the 23rd for delivery on the 24th. Unfortunately, once the package is handed over to the carrier, we no longer have control over what happens next. Generally, it goes as planned, Chronopost delivers in 24 hours, but here I have no explanation for the incident that delayed your shipment. Perhaps the cyberattack against the post office?
Please feel free to contact us directly for any questions or assistance regarding your product.
Best regards,
The Makkura Stationery Team

I love the products offered by Papeterie MAKKURA, but my last shopping experience was very complicated. I had to follow up several times to finally learn that the notebook I had purchased ... was no longer in stock, even though it was when I bought it! It took more than a month for it to arrive, and if I hadn't followed up, I wouldn't have heard anything. There needs to be better communication efforts with customers, please.

I only give 3 stars for the overall experience not knowing where the delivery delay issue was. 4 1/2 weeks for 2 notebooks and a ruler. Otherwise, I would give 5 stars for the quality of the purchases.

The product is as expected as it is a Midori notebook so no issues there, after all it is the same product regardless of who sells it. My review is of Papeterie Makkura and the reason for 2 stars is I was very disappointed that it took almost a week for delivery which is very poor for an item as small and light as an A6 pocket notebook at a delivery charge of €5,90! And that was not even to my house but to my local post office as delivery to my house would have cost a couple of euros more! Honestly for that price I had expected 1 day delivery not 6 days. Next time I will just order from Amazon or Cultura as the price is the same but delivery is much faster and more convenient with it being delivered to my home and not a post office. A shame as I had hoped to be able to support a smaller business but they need to improve their delivery options. There are far cheaper options as I have bought items from many small businesses that do not charge so much and can still do less than 2 day deliveries to my actual home so I have no idea what is going on with their delivery arrangements.

Hello Fabrice, thank you for your review. I'm sorry, the brand only offers instructions in Japanese and English. We will pass on this translation problem to the brand.
By the way, your pen is a Sailor, it was absolutely not made in China, Sailor only produces in Japan.

The items were well packed and exactly what I ordered. It was easy to order and make the payment. Also the variety of inks is very good in the shop. But... I would like the e-mail ads to come in english as I do not speak french. Also the shipping cost was too high and for that price it shouldn´t take more than a week to deliver(ordered from Italy at the same time, half the shipping cost and half the shipping time mon-thu). If you get that in order I will certainly order again. So all and all it was good with small bad details, thank you.

I'll break the score down into two parts: - The first: the order was compliant and received promptly, the parcel was well prepared, and the quality was always top-notch. I'd give it 5 stars without question; - The second: on the other hand, what spoils the note is that the Mondial Relay point I had requested was not respected. As a result, I had to travel by car in an area where it's notoriously difficult to get around and park due to a lack of spaces, 1 hour there and back, even though the Mondial Relay point I'd requested is a 5-minute walk from my home. And that, frankly, made me a little uneasy.

Just a quick note to say that the presentation of the packaging doesn't reflect what you're selling... the little boxes of cartridges laid loose with paper on top... in a cardboard box 10 times too big... A bubble envelope with the little cartridges in a little bag with a little note would have been nice... it's a shame in France the taste for detail and pretty presentation isn't honored... Compared with Japanese shipments........

My experience is mixed for the following reasons. I placed an order for two batches of Tomoè River paper in A5 size. Although the sets were very carefully packaged, one corner of the sets was chipped. I notified the mill with photos. The stationery store offered me the option of returning the sets or a 25% discount on a repeat order. I opted for the second option, as a postal return is time-consuming and tedious. What's more, the cost of the return was not provided for by the stationery store. In the event of an incident, Amazon is more accommodating. In the end, I very quickly received the second batch in perfect condition, hence the three-star rating given the extra cost.

Very serious site in terms of delivery times. That said, the references and details concerning the products are sometimes erroneous. Nottament nlrqueon order a notebook without line and it is in fact line and even illustrations at the top and bottom of pages. The same goes for formats: I received a 5" when I thought I'd ordered an a4"... not very clear. I'd also add that some paper is expensive for draft sheet quality.
