yeah in fairness to them, they were quick to send me the claim form, and they are always there to pick up at the same time (about 11am) which is a good time for me being a marathon sleeper.
the guy is helpfull, and always has a convo..so that part is ok, but its when it goes from small pickup, to overnight distribution thats the problem, board kids, and long term employees doing a s
t job that must be savage.
so i do expect some fun and games, but the bonnet was a jaw dropper.
A lot of my anger is from spending so long making sure oxo would be happy with it, as i always do, what i wish to myself.
so to see it like that, broke my heart and his for that matter.
Ive sent the form back and im waiting for a reply, i dont think it will take long.
As for oxo's money, i didnt realise he's not retracted the payment..(oops) i better sort that out asap..lol.
Oxo's been very understanding, and pateint though, so hats off to him.
i used ets pallet services today..
to go 800 miles to scotland from cornwall 2-3 days on an engine and head for £127 is for the service and time not bad, however im now finding issues with companies backing out of deliveries, (in good time of course) but it means that to a few good buyers that have had items off me, now have to pay extra postage as a result.
£65 all in turns into £120+
and ive slashed the money i wanted for the parts to accommodate for postage...
its not nice telling someone that the postage is over double now, and you can understand their dismay.
also as an example, say i sold an item for £150 and that was already say £50 cheaper then most, then i advertise the postage at say £30.
then the courier says they cant take it a day later, so you contact the buyer (feeling really bad) then ask for more money for postage.
in most cases i try to help out where i can, but i then get way less for the item.
so unless you give a good postal price in the first instance, that is reliable.
you set yourself up to fail, as the couriers are now pushing the price up.
but if you go with the price they are asking, and then it reflects in the auction sale, you don't get bids.
anybody know of a good courier at a decent cost??? as im finding it hard to make ends meet with the prices im having to offer peeps.
it wasnt long ago that someone said to me that the pallet can go anywhere mainland for £39 well......show me
