Only half satisfied
Items are great except for the fact that I only received one of my two reels! When I reached out to them asking where is my other reel, they told me I had to wait 18 days. If they ship from Oregon and I'm in Washington state… it should not take 18 days!!!

Great & Unique Gift
I was searching for a fun & unique anniversary gift for a very successful couple. They are truly special and I wanted a gift that would bring smiles to their faces. I ordered this viewer plus 2 reels. I completed one reel with their photos & gifted them a reel to make themselves! They loved this gift!

Really Memorable Gift
If you're like me and want to find a fun gift that's personal and sentimental but don't always have the time to make something, this is the perfect gift! Purchased for my partner for our anniversary, and I plan to add a reel every year with photos of us from that year. I love this gift, and am so glad UG helped me find it!

I got this for a friend who just had a baby and got the first set of photos of the newborn, it was a very special and super cute gift and will continue to get photos made for each birthday!

Great nostalgic gift!
An old-school way to view photos - and even more awesome because of being able to create personalized reels. This was a fun gift to create and it was a hit for the birthday person and everyone else, too. I took off a star because of some difficulty with getting my reels ordered, but ultimately everything arrived in time for the birthday party as I had hoped/intended. The site warns about allowing enough time for processing and shipment - heed their warning!

Perfect!
I got this product as a gift for my partner's and my 7 year anniversary and his 40th birthday. The viewer works perfectly with the free reel I had made filled with seven photos from the seven years we've been together. The only part that stinks is the fact that I have to keep it a secret from him for four months until his birthday!! It's so wonderful that it makes me cry every time I use it.

After photo submission, can I have a finished reel shipped to Hong Kong?
Verified reply from Justin
The finished reels ship all over the world. Please note that many countries charge their citizens an import tax or duty fee for purchasing items outside of their country. These taxes are collected during the delivery by the shipper on behalf of the customs department (some countries also allow it to be paid online or over the phone). All countries are different, so we do not know the laws, tax percentages, or fees charged in your area. Therefore, we always recommend that customers outside of the USA research their local import fees and laws so that they are prepared.

How do I submit pictures to complete my purchase for the view master?
Verified reply from Angelica
Once you physically receive your viewer, check inside the Reel Viewer box for a code to redeem one free reel. The code will be located on a card or on the included reel in the reel slot. Head over to their website that is on the card, create an account, and input the code. From there you will upload your images to create your reel.

When I submit the photos can I choose the order? For example, if I wanted the last photo to say, "Will you marry me?" Can I be ensured that would be last?
Verified reply from Jen
Great question, once you receive your Reel Viewer you would be prompt to a different vendor to set up the frames, the frames are able to be arranged the way you wish. Great idea!

Why does the Reel viewer say for ages over 13 years? It seems like the old Viewmasters could be used by younger ages. Is there something different about this one that could not be used by a 3 or 4 year-old?
Verified reply from Jen
The age recommendation is due to the nature of the gift. The gift is to be able to see photos of loved ones, or events. The viewmasters from back then were geared toward children because of the nature of the photos telling a story with animated characters. Besides that, there's no big difference. Great question!

can you have the viewfinders branded with company logo? Is there a minimum order of viewfinders and reels? Can you order a certain number of the same reel?
Verified reply from Itamar
At this moment these view finders are not customizable. You may order however many viewers as you'd like. Please contact our corporate orders page for further assistance or email us at help@uncommongoods.com.

Is it possible to add slides from a power point on here? Slides with photos and words in one. We are thinking of using this to use as a kind of impact report for a donor of our organization.
Verified reply from Angelica
Yes, as long as each slide is saved as a JPEG, you can upload it to have on the reel.

Does the Collectors Edition Reel Storage come with a viewer/reel? Or is that just for the wooden reel storage holder?
Verified reply from Dayle-Marie
The Collectors Edition Reel Storage is just for the wooden reel storage holder. The reel viewer is sold separately.
