This is a copy of the email I got, really sorry the OP didnt get one.
Dear Customer,
Thank you for placing your order with STAPLES.
We are pleased to confirm that your order has been despatched via our carrier ParcelForce on 18/07/2008 at 14:04.
Please note that this shipping confirmation relates only to items within your order which are stock next day delivery items. This includes a welcome pack if this is your first order and also free gifts, if applicable. If you ordered items with a longer delivery period, these will follow later in a separate delivery. We are unable to send a shipping confirmation for items being delivered from a third party warehouse, such as some furniture items.
Your Order reference number is TK12XXXXX0 -
Please let us know if you get mini oven or not. I guess they dont need Parcelforce if they dont deliver you mini oven...so it's a good sign.
I ordered last friday but have not heard anything from them yet.0 -

Posting item back is at your cost as long as they specified that in their terms&conditions. If they haven't, then (if you have the energy and wnat to be cheeky :rotfl:) you can inform them where to pick their item up. Also, under these 7 days rule they can not demand that you return items unopened or with all packaging. They can ask politely, but can not withold your refund.
This does not apply to certain things - such as DVDs, software, etc. or personalized items though!

This is simply not true.
The distance selling regulations are not intended to provide a 'try before you buy' service - they're simply so that a consumer can change their mind.
The retailer does NOT have to refund you the cost of carriage (either way if their terms state otherwise).

The mini oven has arrived !!, mind you, seriously you wouldnt want it, it is very mini, it is a sort of orangey brown colour with cream on it, looks like a throw back to the 1970's, there is no way you would get a pizza in it, one slice of toast maybe, it is made of tin that just rattles and has big chunky dials on it. It will be put straight into the shed, cant even take it to the charity shop as they dont take electrical items. If anyone's son or daughter is off to uni maybe it would be of use, but it really does look like someone has taken it from my dear old Nan's kitchen. Saying that maybe I am being a bit snobby, it didn't cost me anything apart from the cost of a 79p pad and £4.00 in postage. Thanks as always to the OP, if anyone lives near Great Missenden and wants to pick it up or knows a good place for it to go let me know. Oh well my pad was nice !!:rotfl:0
