tv shopping channels

i recently purchased an electric drill from these people brand name Cougar it does not have a warranty/gaurantee and i find this very strange there are no warnings regarding this on their auction sites or tv shopping i.e price drop tv , bid tv etc i have contacted them by email several times no reply except automated ones , it appears manufatures at adwick le street , doncaster but under Nutools and their ste says under construction but to contact their customer services AGAIN no reply the shooping channels mentioned are parent company SIT-UP TV , i would have thought that this was a requirement and your required to return at your own expense by recorded/registered post which is no refundable, as a disabled male on benefit i find this would be more than actually delivering in person, Help anyone PLEASE BE WARNED I HAVE contacted relevant government dept as well as Consumers site. THEY charged me £8.99 delivery which was by courier and requested uplift but no replies except as stated, also contacted ITV CHANNELS to warn people and advice FED UP WITH THIS.

What is the actual problem you are having, is the drill broken? And you didn't see the delivery charge right below the phone number before you ordered?
I really don't see what interest this will be to ITV CHANNELS either.Male.

Ah! Cougar, a BRAND NAME ???
Cougar make ebay tat... and shopping channel tat.
It's worth about a pound. The postage you paid is more than the value (ha) of the drill.
Has the battery given up yet??
You won't find a guarantee as it would have to go the other side of the Planet to be looked at by anyone.
It's cheap tat, like the Designer Watches they sell on Shopping Channels.
I can't see anyone giving a monkeys, it's hardly a revelation that Shopping Channels are selling crap.0 -

Yep, it's pretty much the equivalent of Argos' Challenge.

There is no requirement under law to offer a warranty. This does not affect your statutory rights so the Sale of Goods Act still applies.0
