  • Ordered a kindle for hubbie for christmas but didn't fancy paying the postage despite the risk of it not getting here before christmas. So what i've done is printed off a picture of said kindle and put it in an envelope marked "coming to you soon..." and put it in with his other pressies! Got email today to say it has been dispatched so if it does come in time for xmas, bonus!

    If you used super saver deliver it *can't* arrive before Christmas. Last normal posting day was the 16th, unfortunately.

    Yahoo! It arrived! I could have kissed the delivery man :D I hope this is a good sign for others trying to get kindles or items being dispatched from London.

    I ordered my husbands main present from Amazon on 16th. They dispatched it on 17th but sent it via Royal Mail No tracking number or anything. Still hasn't been delivered. Starting to panic a little bit.

    My re-sent items have been "out on the van for delivery" for two days now (with Citylink) and of course they aren't answering their phones. Goodness knows whether they will arrive in time.

    Yes, I know it is only 5 days since the item was dispatched but I run an internet business and know how long my shipping takes. I would have expected to have received it by now, that's all.
