    DO NOT ORDER FROM THESE COWBOYS (terminal730-uk)...I have been waiting for 75 days for the Flowergirl dress I ordered. They have a different excuse every day. I still have not received my dress but have been told that it would be finished on the 10th May, today I was told the 17th due to a hospital appointment?? I will be leaving 3 more negative feedbacks when I eventually received the dress.

    If you look at the 532 positive feedbacks, most of them are for Badiminton rackets etc.. Nearly all the negative are for dresses.

    Thanks for letting us know - I really hope you get sorted Emesel. Please let us kow how you get on.

    Oh no - so sorry that you have had this experience. That is pretty much what happened to me. I think that my dresses should have arrived by mid-April but I was not too bothered as I have plenty of time. I did hassle them by email and they were quite good at getting back but the date did keep slipping. They finally arrived at the beginning of May :rolleyes: and I am pleased with the dresses. It is not doing them any good though with all these delays.

    Thanks to everyone who post comps - you are all :cool2:
  • Exactly the same story happened with me as well. :mad: I have ordered my dresses from the Terminal730 more than 60 days ago and still haven't received. Unfortunately I'm not able to leave any feedback for them, because I have run out of the time already and my transaction is not exist on the ebay anymore. I'm not an experienced ebayer...
    My wedding is on 1.08.2009.
    I'm thinking about I should order another dress from the gianinarbridal.
    :rolleyes:

    hi, just wanted to let you know the bridesmaid dress from ViviPrettyGown today. we ordered a standard size and took just over a week to arrive after payment. the dress is stunning and lovely material and quality. BUT it is bright pink and we ordered purple:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:.

    they say they sent purple and they don't sell this dress in pink. they have offerred a full refund if we pay to send it back.( which is per ebay's rules) we are just waiting to hear if they mean also the shipping. it should cost us £7 to send back. we have seen another dress from them we like but it is dearer and more expensive shipping:mad:. we thought the bm dress drama was over!

    Unfortunately, Chardonnay, they do this. You pay shipping and if faulty, you pay shipping!! With something like this I would e mail them and say that because they haven't sent you the dress you paid and ordered (because colour difference is a big error) you don't have a problem returning the dress to them and stumping up costs if they send you the dress you originally paid for (and in theory have already paid shipping costs on ) and waiver the additional charges. They have made a mistake NOT YOU!!

    thanks linda. good news they are going to give me full refund. we did have to pay £7.50 to send it back. we've seen another darker purple dress from the same seller we like but it's dearer. i checked ebay again and have found some cheaper dresses in the uk we like and just waiting on measurements to check if they will fit.

    Hi,

    I ordered a wedding gown from terminal730-uk on 26th March 2009 and it arrived today. But delivery time aside, it is a lovely dress and money well spent. Don't count too much on the necklaces and veil - they are not useful. They did make a jacket for me and it turned out alright. The petticoat is a bit on the cheap side.

    All in all, I'm happy with the dress, although it was stressful having to wait for it for so long. But they replied all my emails within a few hours or the next day, so I didn't feel ignored.

    Hope all goes well for you.
