 Poster: A snowHead
|
I sold a pair of Salomon Minimax snowblades and posted them on 20th December with usual proofs after a successful Ebay sale to Aberdeen. Has the post up there for larger items gone completely pear-shaped? I don't want to let down a buyer but he has emailed my wife today saying he hasn't got them-very disappointing.
Anyone else with similar experiences presently or historically?

HI
did you post them by a trackable service , if so see what it has to say , if they have the item, then its probably still in transit
if they dont start a track / claim, it may turn up
at the moment its still less than 14 working days -so its probably OK

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Yeah, things are taking ages here in Edinburgh. Bought a pair of skis from germany on 20/12, they got to UK within 24hrs then sat at some depot until last wednesday, other mail often taking longer as well.

kevin mcclean, I live in a reasonably remote (ish) place and things have been taking ages to get here, 3 to 4 weeks in some cases.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Hi all. Thanks for this, a bit of kindly reassurance. I kinda guessed things were really haywire up north with the weather so fingers crossed-the buyer seems really patient!

kevin mcclean, It's not just the scottish post that's gone a bit awry - some roof bars I ordered at the beginning of December arrived yesterday (having paid extra for next day delivery !!!!).

I hope you can get a refund, deerman.

A lot of stuff got delayed all over.
Has the buyer tried the local sorting office in case delivery was attempted ? I've had a few enquiries lately where no card was left and the item is at the local office after delivery was supposedly attempted.

I bought a pile of things - everything was delayed but it was a bit random before Christmas. Some things took a few days more, some things took three weeks more. Have bought telemark skis, boots and a new helmet in the last two weeks and have not had any joy. Think parcel force might be stacked up and are badly back-logged. Just hope nothing goes missing long-term. Good luck, hope none of your items are needed for a specific date.

Thankfully snowblades have turned up after 15 days in the Parcelfarce wilderness. Thanks for your help and advice, etc..

Good news! Have just (the day before they said they would have returned it to the sender in the USA) tracked down a package in Parcel Farce's tender care which they claim to have tried to deliver twice, no cards through the door either occasion and on one of the supposed delivery attempt days I was working from home so was sat within about 10ft of the door they would have knocked on from about 7:30 to 17:30 and never out of earshot of a knock on the door.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

You know it makes sense.

I think everything has finally turned up, but the location of hubby's avalanche gear is still a mystery for another few days. We think it has been delivered to France.

Lethal_Hamster, just as well really, as we're going there at the weekend, so being in France would be a good place for it to be. I'm hoping there is a card in the mail box. I've had similar tracking info from Play.com in the past.
