internet is crap for shopping

remember how i said the internet was great for shopping for a christmas present

"did a search additions direct £27.00 + £3.50 delivery and these are been sold on ebay now for £40 + £10 delivery .

how happy i am."

well it had to happen the goods have not turned up, and have been told if they did not arrive by 12.00 today it will be after 3rd jan .

so here i am i 1.00 on christmas eve having to find a present because some company took my money under a false promise ( i was told delivery by tuesday this week) i belive the company never had the goods in stock and where never going to delivery before christmas.

i know i have bog all rights but how annoying is this.

the problem i can see is that the item i was buying was a babyliss beach tanning kit (for a friends 20 year old daughter honest), ever other shop argos, john lewis, boots, amazon are seeling this at £55-£60. even ebay are selling at £50 + when addition direct offers this at £27.50 somebody has made a mistake, therefore do not send the goods out customer gets annoyed and cancels the order and saves them money.

sent a email to trading standards complaing about the service and also that they have taken my money for goods that do want to send out becasue they have messed up on the price.
