  • I have ordered a cuddledry from here in the past and they have one of the best prices on the net for this item. I paid by paypal too.

    A search on this forum for Daisy May shows several people have ordered in the past and been happy with the service. They have their address details on the site which matches with the details on 192.

    I have placed an order for something I have been looking at for a while, I hope it comes. I paid by Paypal funded by credit card.


    Not being funny, but did these people PM you their addresses. How did you find it out.
    Not sure I want the whole blimmin forum knowing where I live with little detective work :(

    I think mookie meant that the address on the website matches that on 192.com. When you have a website you are pretty much property of the public domain and your address is available for all to see. She meant that by searching this website some others have said they are pleased with the service, not that she had their addresses.

    However, I still think this post is spam. As another poster said, if someone registers and joins in with other converations then fine but said OP has ONLY ever posted about this company and one of the posts was removed (probably for the same reason), there is no chat, no comments, only ever posting about the one company. And posting for your own financial gain is against the rules. How about I post my website, and then someone else posts their website.... there is a thread set aside for promoting your business in the 'shop don't drop' board.

    Just to bear in mind, Paypal only offers 'buyer protection' for things bought on eBay. Your credit card offers protection - usually though - you have to spend over £100. If you purchase goods and pay and a company goes into Administration and you do not have your goods you'll end up having to apply to the Administrators. for your money back - if it is not there though you will not be able to have it.

    Adams have a good sale online at the moment but would you buy from them right now.......

    Just be careful who you spend your money with at the moment.

    I am finding it strange that someone goes into business and closes after just 4 months, something does not sound right there.

    I'll play Devil's Advocate here - supplier problems? credit issues? family or personal issues? Maybe the business is plain not working - or they have a better opportunity. Who knows?
    The thanks button is here to the right. If you find a post saves you money, gives you useful information, or you agree with it, take a second to thank the poster! :)

    That doesn't mean anything. A lot of small businesses fold in their first year.

    If anybody associated with this company is reading this thread please can you add a post to put buyers minds at rest. All this speculating over whether goods will turn up is worrying me. :o
