“ I bought this at short notice, hoping ( but not expecting ) it would arrive before my Dad's BBQ birthday party, and I'm pleased to say it did! Simon gives amazing customer service. With less than a week to go I requested one of my Dad's top 5 favourite songs of all time, "Waiting In Vain" by Bob Marley, and he was able to accommodate my tight deadline with the framed record arriving in plenty of time for his 55th birthday party. My Dad was not expecting this as a present so he was pleasantly surprised and very happy with it. Thank you Simon for all your hard work! From a very happy customer, Asha”

“ Looked through many competitor websites whilst doing my research but yours stood head & shoulders above the others. I ordered a framed 7" vinyl record of Billy Idol's "White Wedding" as a first anniversary gift for our good friends. Very pleased with the item & the efficient service you provided. Will be recommending your company to family & friends. Keep up the good work. Many thanks, John. ”

“ I recently gave my dad a framed vinyl single of ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ by Lynyrd Skynyrd for Father’s Day. I am absolutely thrilled with it! The quality is fantastic with a very quick delivery turnaround adding up to an excellent customer service and experience. These framed records make the perfect gift for any special occasion! ”

“ Many thanks for the wonderful framed 7" vinyl single of "Up the Junction" by Squeeze. It was a special song for myself and my Dad who sadly passed away in December. I wanted something really special to remember him by and this was perfect. MyFirstRecord.co.uk sourced me a special lilac coloured vinyl version which adds to it’s uniqueness. I wanted to message you personally to thank you for your workmanship, communication and after sales service which were all excellent!! Thank you so much Lynn ”

“ Excellent product, backed up by equally good service. I think it's worth pointing out to other potential customers, that the reason why I chose My First Record was because you appear to be the only site that offers to source the original vinyl single as opposed to offering some gold / silver coated disc which has no meaning and frankly looks a bit cheap and tacky. Or worse still, a manufactured label stuck on a random record. Thanks, Alan ”

“ I'm so happy to have won a framed vinyl of my favourite Eurovision song contest tune, Waterloo by Abba, in your #Eurovision2019 competition on social media. The quality and finish are exceptional and the song itself will always be a poignant reminder of my childhood and will be cherished. Thank you. ***Julia's winning entry: "My favourite Eurovision song is Waterloo, I was 9 when Abba won in 74. My friend and I would grab our hairbrushes and stand in front of a mirror singing along to it, happy days. And my love for them still continues to this day. The sad thing is my childhood friend and fellow Abba fan passed away a couple of weeks ago. So I'll treasure those memories x"*** ”

“ Absolutely thrilled with my framed record purchased for a friend's 60th Birthday gift. My friend was totally delighted with it. First class service, Simon even phoned to clarify a query, no other company would give such personal service. Framed record arrived well packaged and in excellent condition. Have no hesitation recommending this company and will definitely order again. Thank you”

“ For my 30th birthday I received a framed cd single of 'Can't Stand Me Now' by The Libertines, a single by a band that holds huge significance to me. With its personalised engraving from the sender as well, it was the perfect gift to remember and mark the milestone of my first 30 years. I can't recommend My First Record highly enough as a fantastic way to mark any special event in one's life. In the words of the song mentioned, it was 'an ending fitting for the start'. Thank you My First Record!”

“ Wow! I'm am now on the best daughter list! This song, "Mr Blue Sky" by ELO, formed part of the background music for most of my childhood and is my mam's favourite song. Thank you so much to MyFirstRecord for creating the most wonderful Mother's Day gift for my mam. She loved it and I would really recommend your framed records as a unique gift for anyone. The engraved plaque message just topped it off. ”

“ I received my order on Wednesday and I am delighted with it. The wording on the engraved plaque message is clear and well spaced. The vinyl record is an original and is nicely centred giving a balanced look to the black frame which sets the whole thing off beautifully. I have no hesitation in recommending My First Record. Communication with Simon has been exceptionally good, sending me updates on a regular basis. A great big thank you. ***The song Anna selected was "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye, No1 on the day her son was born as his 50th birthday gift***”

“ The reason why I chose your company over others in the first place was that you didn't give the impression of 'churning' out low quality kitsch products as many others did. The reviews from your satisfied customers show a personal touch, going above and beyond in some instances, and from our telephone conversation on the day of purchase, this impression of conscientiousness was reinforced. The service & product received subsequently have not only matched my initial impressions but exceeded my expectations. An exemplary service and very high calibre product, which I would wholeheartedly recommend to all *** Rebecca's framed record was the Kink's 1967 classic "Waterloo Sunset" as her Dad's 60th birthday gift ***”

“ Excellent service from start to finish with great communication at all times. The 50th birthday gift was well recieved by my brother-in-law who absolutely loved the originality of the item ( the No1 record on the day he was born - "If Paradise is Half as Nice" by Amen Corner ) and the personalised sentiment behind the framed 7" vinyl single. Great quality. Would definitely recommend to anyone.”

“ I am more than impressed by your service. My order was perfect and was delivered very promptly. I chose My First Record because your product design was the classiest and also because you use a genuine record rather than a phony one which seems to be the case with some of the other websites. I definitely made the right decision as the finished product ( Everything I do I do it for you by Bryan Adams ) more than lived up to my expectations. More importantly, Mum & Dad were equally thrilled with their silver wedding anniversary present. Thank you for helping to make their special day even more special! I will absolutely be referring friends and family to your website for any gifts in the future! ”

“ I was lucky enough to win My First Record's "Oddest Ways to Propose" Valentine's competition and my prize is an amazing framed vinyl of Toots and the Maytals' "Reggae got Soul". It's amazing!!! It's fantastic quality, extremely well made and looks so cool!! Oh, fantastic customer service too - friendly, swift communication throughout and the product was well packaged. My framed vinyl record is such a lovely and unique way to remember our wedding first dance song - such a brilliant and personal gift. I love it!!! Thank you!”

“ Dear Simon, just wanted to say how thrilled I was with the finished product. When you weren’t initially able to fulfil my request as the song "True Love" by Pink hadn’t been released on vinyl and there were no CD copies available in the UK, I was very disappointed but put it to the back of my mind. I was so surprised to hear from you a few days later, having tracked down a copy of the CD single in Australia! Thank you so much for your efforts, excellent customer service, above and beyond what I'd expect. The finished article was received in good time for Valentine’s Day ( although I have decided to hang onto it for our anniversary, as it’s so fantastic!) I couldn’t be more pleased. I’ve recommended you to family and friends. Thank you again. Alex”
