Mojo Interiors
Has anyone heard of these people or checked the quality of their stuff?
http://mojointeriors.co.uk
The prices seem good although the reproductions are Chinese rather than Italian. They appear to be based in Wiltshire in England and, quite strangely, are connected to a company that sells Quad bikes.....

I bought a clock from them, quality looks ok, arrived quickly and safely. Out of interest, what are you looking at? In my honest opinion I'd be very cautious about buying any 'knock off' furniture, although that's probably because I don't really approve of it, but I'd just be wary of the quality of these items as they aren't really that cheap given their 2nd hand value.

I think the prices are ok, if the quality is good. Not anyone who have bought furniture from this company?

DO NOT USE MOJO INTERIORS
I purchased an Eames RAR rocker from Mojo that was shown on the website as being in stock and delivered within 10 days. After 8 days I tried to contact them to see when I could expect delivery and was told that it was out of stock and would take 10 weeks. I tried to cancel the order there and then, and was told a refund would be actioned. This did not happen, and a week later after repeatedly trying to call, I recieved an e-mail to sat they had 'moved some boxes in the warehouse and found one' ... I declined and asked again for my refund. This went on and on, and nobody called back after my leaving ,messages on an answerphone and sending over 40 e-mails demanding a response. Eventually, 6 phone calls through the MD on a Saturday morning where he was 'waiting for his accountant', 'just out of the office' ... etc, resulted in my being told I was going to be refunded ...... I am still waiting ....
This company is dreadful, and I have had nothing but lies form the two people I have spoken to or recieved e-mails from.
Never buy from this company.

At a slight tangent I notice that ersatz Eames loungers on Ebay are now sometimes selling for as little as £300 - maybe the market for knock - offs is beginning to falter?

mojo
im quite surprised by the service received by david. i have bought several items from mojo interiors including a swan and an egg chair and have never been able to fault the service. most importantly ive always been impressed by the design and quality of my purchases and to be honest that's my main concern when buying any new piece. in terms of state-of-the-art, i'll definitely keep using mojo.

Mojo
Have been working with design furniture for quite a few years now - both classics and new design furniture and have from time to time considered using replicas in interior assignments and - hate to say it - also done it a few times on customers request...anyway, where I am going is quality...In my 15 years of working with design I´ve come across only one company in northern Italy making acceptable replicas (acceptable in quality matters - not that´s it acceptable making the replicas!!). This company was also chosen to deliver furniture to the restored Mies van der Rohe Tugendhat house in the 80´...If you guys really think that the quality of the chinese copies from Mojo and 1929 and others is fantastic you must be comparing the pieces to your bachelor apartment Ikea furniture... Compare any authentic Miller or Fritz Hansen piece to the copies - the diffenrence in look and quality is obvious!!

I'm afraid to report the service received from Mojo thus far has been nothing short of poor. I ordered a lamp (listed as in stock for immediate dispatch on their site) and waited 6-7 days for an email to come through stating they would be in touch after a month with an update of the order.
Obviously concerned I phoned them with no answer of the phone. I spoke to somebody the next day who couldn't find my details and kept me waiting, eventually telling me the lamp had been sent the day after I ordered and that the email I received was a mistake (helpful!).
I was told he'd find out what has happened to the lamp and would ring back in 30 minutes. Alas, no phone call (it's now over a day since the phone call should have been made) so I'm about to phone AGAIN. Not impressed.

Save your money, friend. I will not proselytize on the morality issue, but I will ask that you consider the fundamental drawbacks of such a choice/purchase.
Think about it -- why burden yourself with being the caretaker of half-baked copies made in a wasteland like mainland China? Such furniture is the physical embodiment of strife and sadness coming from such a place, not of pride in craft. Why pay rent on a place to keep and house furnishings that aren't worth a nickel the second after you buy them? Why break your back on moving day for such a thing?
Save up and sit on something less compelling for a while.

Finch, I totally agree with you - In fact I'm a dealer in original design and my own house has many classics from Eames, Nelson, Colombo, Vodder etc. I purchased a Visor lamp for a friend's birthday who likes this lamp. I couldn't justify the £500 price tag for an original although I HATE copies and this experience has done nothing to convince me taking a short cut was the best option. I guess you get what you pay for, and that doesn't just include the product most of the time.

Don't bother with Mojo Interior
After waiting nearly 14 weeks.
*endless phone calls
*fake information about customs holding it up
*fake information about it being in the UK and ready for delivery
*They never call back
*After waiting 14 weeks I was then told the item was out of stock
I wonder if other people have put money in their bank account to gather interest.
Unprofessional.
*I await a full refund
I will be contacting trading standards and I recommend avoiding this company.

Stay AWAY from this company
After emailing David at Mojo regarding the availability of a lamp I was told it was in stock and would reach me after 7-14 days. After 5 weeks I still hadn't heard anything. Later I was told the item was not in stock but that a shipment had recently docked in UK. After another two weeks I decided to cancell the transaction, after endless emails that was obvious stalling from their part, and demanded my money back. They said they would send my money back but nothing happened. After several angry emails and threats I finally got my money back.
I have ONE thing to say. Stay AWAY from this company!

i'm having a terrible time with Mojo also.....
I ordered 2 items in March, one of them arrived after long delays (it's a bit of a disappointment but i realise i got what i paid for), I asked where the second one was and they told me it hadn't been ordered and would be a further 10 weeks (even though they took full payment for both items in March). I'm trying to get my money back on the second item as I don't hold any confidence in them that it will actually turn up. I also had the excuses about customs, which must be the standard line. Has anyone actually reported them to trading standards yet? They are one of the worst companies i have come across in a very long time
