Product purchase.
I haven't had to use the product as of yet but was incredibly impressed by the quality of customer service both from a product knowledge perspective and also the speed of shipping. Thanks team.

Nice touch
Each NPA comes hygienically sealed, Andy with a little sachet of lubricant, which I thought was a nice touch.
