Moral of the story

[sparky 2]

Maybe if your not prepared to wait a little bit for delivery or returns during a very busy period don't buy in the sales.:banghead: Aimed at no one.

[Andy from Sandy]

Maybe if the supplier knows they are going to be snowed under don't offer express next day delivery knowing full well it won't be packed and shipped the day of the order.

Also not aimed at anyone.

This is very childish. Posting a thread aimed at another persons thread.
How grown up of you.

I've no idea who is being talked about but I agree... During times of high volume sales (Christmas, etc), if there's a chance that the volume of sales could affect their delivery, then extra staff should be hired (or other measures employed) to ensure there is no delay in delivery. The customer shouldn't have to suffer in order to make more money for the supplier.

For me the general problem is suppliers offering a particular service and taking money for said service but then not doing what they promised. It then falls to others on forums to berate the moaners for daring to even mention that their goods have not been supplied as promised.

And still not aimed at anyone! lol.

Andy don't worry I do agree hence just my observation if its [U]not [/U] going to leave the building in time for next day delivery then it should not have been posted by that method.

Do other people slow down in delivering their product to a customer during the festive season? Example
A doctor and a patient. Oh you'll have to wait an extra three days to be seen as it's Xmas.
What a load of old.....If you can't cope with the rush of Xmas then employ more staff. End of story. It's not rocket science is it guys?
Don't charge people for a service that was never going to happen. Next day deliveries being charged out to people and not getting the items next day......Not doing as it says on the tin and also comes under:

The Distance Selling Regulations Act which states that goods must be delivered within the time frame you agree with the seller.
I.e: If you have paid for next day delivery and havn't received it next day then this has been broken.
That is all.

Live and let live. Give and take. Win & lose. Life is never a straight line.

Not aimed at anyone lol.

Made me laugh over the sales period that M&S shut their fitting rooms so customers tried changing in the shop itself. I would never be that desperate for a bargain if I couldn't try the things on and risk getting home with a load of ill-fitting clothes.

M&S said it was because they were busy!

I'm still waiting patiently for some 450 spares that I ordered from Skyline Models on the 28th. I do realise it might take a while though so just need to wait until they turn up!

Even though you didn't get next day delivery (it would never have happened due to working days over xmas anyways).. I bet you saved money on that courier service compared to the standard RM delivery.. some consolation? :D
