    took 4 hours last night to order - got to the point where it was a matter of principle that i wasnt going to give in, did all my other xmas shopping, checked my emails, ate tea etc etc but all my stuff should be here soon

    i actually ordered this morning-couldn't believe my luck

    if there's anybody in here who's had stuff from them before how long roughly does it take to get to you from when you place an order?

    Last order I placed it arrived 5 days later, I received an email from them today saying the website is going to be down tomorrow between 6am & 7pm for essential maintenance. (maybe replacing the batteries or something) so hopefully it will be a bit faster after tomorrow.
    Booo!!!

    Assuming they were the £4.99 ones....christmas is coming! Either give them as pressies, or Ebay them?

    Or return the extra ones.
    Returns

    You can return your order for any reason, at any time within 14 days of receipt, for a full refund, provided the goods are unused and in their original packaging.
    If the goods are incorrect or damaged, halfcost will collect the items, free of charge. Contact our Careline by emailing [EMAIL="customercare@halfcost.co.uk"]customercare@halfcost.co.uk[/EMAIL] to arrange the collection.
    In the unlikely event that you wish to return goods because you are not completely satisfied with them, please send the items back to us by post, at your own cost. (Please send jewellery items with a value in excess of £50 by Registered Post).
    In all cases a full refund will be processed on receipt of the items back into our warehouse. We process returns as soon as they are received, but during busy times there may be a slight delay.
    All personalised items are excluded from our 14 day return period, as is pre-recorded material, software and fragrances where the seal has been broken. For reasons of health and hygiene, earrings for pierced ears and body bars are also excluded from return. You may only return these items if faulty or damaged.

    Never has the phrase "Essential Maintenance" been more appropriate. :rotfl:

    I got some really nice cutlery from them over a year ago & I seem to remember that the sight was slow even then. It may be better after the maintenance but I wont be putting any money on it.
    Booo!!!
