no doubt others have had similar/worse experiences, but I am mightily p'd off:
I placed my order on Nov 27 - nearly a month before Christmas -for over £50 worth of books, all on 24 hour despatch; predicted delivery date was Dec 8th.
NOW they tell me; one book won't arrive before January 15th;others have not yet been despatched.
OK, there are still a few days to go, and they might arrive, but today is my last shopping opportunity due to various commitments, so I have had to rush out and spend another £50 on less-desirable replacemtns, just to make sure. Buggerbuggerbugger.
