Collection from where?

[mikelj99]

Sorry, Blandford, Dorset

Would definitely go and collect if you can - if not get the exact costs for delivery before you order!

 

We ordered some touch screens and servers and got stung on the delivery and the only response I got was that I got a good deal on the kit.They didn't understand that if it wasn't a good deal I wouldn't have bought it!

 

Would have been cheaper to drive to get them myself!

 

Was a bit disappointed tbh

[mikelj99]

I'd agree - I thought the delivery charges were pretty high when we ordered them.

Parcelforce charge £40 to ship a package of this size.

The other option is to arrange for your own courier to collect - happy to do that...

Yep,

 

Wishing that we had done that - paid a few times more than that!

 

Think they should be a bit more upfront about this side of things tbh.
