I bought a laptoppower supply on ebay (for my SIP welder mod) and it was dispatched on the 30th in time to catch the 1st class post delivery and nothing has appeared yet. Checked with the local post office who suprise! suprise! blamed the weather - how come I'm still receiving mail then? How come Carriers are still delivering stuff dispatched after this?

I think the seller should claim on GPO as it is lost and post me another one. Am I being reasonable here or am I getting a bit bolshy?

Cheers

David

your not being bolshy, but with the xmas break they can use that as an excuse too, plus of course you do live 'abroad' whatever we send across border costs twice as much, thieving shites

I ordered a gearbox on 6th December... was picked up by CityLink on 8th December and it's still not here! Blaming the snow!

Don't worry, they'll sit outside your house and put a 'can't deliver' card through your door when you pop out for 30secs.

LOL... when I called them they did say that delivery had been attempted on the 4th. Strange as I was in all day!

Ah! but you can spot that the tyre tracks do a u turn in the snow half a mile from the house!
