Frequently Asked Questions

Ania has been super helpful right from the start. She provided a wealth of information on typewriters, answering all my queries with patience.
The packaging for the shipping was super secure. I highly recommend The Typerwriter Company!

Great design, perfect function. Looked a while for this one and am happy now to write on it. Inspires me. Thanks to the work of typewriter/co.! Meinrad Braun

We. Are. Obsessed! The customer service, the extra care and thought put into it because it was a surprise/gift was unexpected. Not only that, it came very well packaged, and with a manual copy and everything! We love it so very much, thank you thank you! Now we just need to figure out a name for it <3

My Olivetti typewriter was delayed in shipping (through no fault of the seller) but when it arrived it was expertly packaged for shipping and arrived in excellent condition. When I contacted the seller about the delay in its arrival, the customer service immediately contacted the shipper and they were able to give me an updated estimate on the arrival date.
The typewriter is beautiful and fun to use.

One of the most amazing sellers I have ever worked with they packaged amazingly and made it so special for my wife birthday thank you so much would recommend to anyone looking for an amazing seller

This is an absolutely stunning typewriter! It is in excellent condition, and the sellers included a Tolkien quote and a cute typewriter pin! It comes with an instruction manual, which was helpful as this is my first typewriter.

The shipping to the USA took approximately 1.5 months longer than predicted. I don't blame the sellers for this, as they posted the typewriter in the post VERY quickly. The wait was worth it. Fortunately this typewriter just for personal use - if purchased as a gift, buy VERY early.

The only bummer was the installed typewriter ribbon being almost completely dried out - I purchased a new typewriter ribbon today but am sad that I can't use my typewriter until it arrives.

The sellers are AMAZING. They have been very helpful and kind. This is the only shop I'd consider for purchasing a typewriter.

Anita and Jacek were determined to make sure the typewriter arrived safely, and they took the time to call and troubleshoot some shilling issues. When the typewriter finally arrived, it was everything I hoped it would be. It was in beautiful condition and worked like a dream. I can't wait to get full use out of it!

Parfait, je ne suis pas déçu, très heureuse même. Très bien emballé, respect de la livraison et qualité du produit impeccable.

This typewriter is absolutely amazing and it was immaculately packed. There were some issues with fed ex but it was nothing to do with the seller. The sellers are very kind and patient and had no problems accommodating me and kept me updated all of the way!

Great for my IBM Selectric Model 72 on my desk. Keeps it dust free while displaying it beautifully, perfectly clear heavy duty vinyl, nicely stitched seams with a black bottom border, very high quality!

Una maravilla de máquina. Una preciosidad. Perfecta. Trato muy profesional y de calidad. Lo recomiendo sin duda.

I have always wanted a good typewriter in my adult life, and I have found one. The quality of the typewriter is superb. You wouldn't think it had been reconditioned. I am over the moon with it. If I should ever need another I shall definitely be shopping here.

I received my yellow Olympia Monica typewriter this week and I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the work of El Granero. The machine was perfectly packed and it arrived in perfect condition after its long trip from Malaga, Spain to Georgia in the US.

The machine looks almost brand new and it works flawlessly, which is amazing considering it is more than 50 years old.

I would definitely buy from El Granero again, and I will highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a vintage typewriter.

Thank you, Ania and Jacek for the amazing work you do!

The typewriter came in amazing packaging to ensure as much care during the shipping process as possible. A few issues with shipping occurred, but Ania was always so helpful and went above and beyond to fix the issue. I am very happy with my purchase and would buy from Ania and Jacek again!
