    Thankyou so much. Was just about to buy the Venturer system from Argos for my daughter's birthday! Great timing...
  • Thanks Shawz. I've ordered the Venturer: it has PLL tuner presets. Which is nice.
  • Cheers Shawy, Venturer on order.

    Well... so much for this. Ordered on Thursday, heard nothing by Monday. Emailed and got a reply yesterday saying it was being sent last night for delivery today.

    Today I got an email:
    Dear Customer

    Thank you for your order for the Venturer Micro Cube System.

    Unfortunately we regret to inform you that this product is now out of stock, and we have been unable to secure another delivery.

    Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused, we have of course refunded you in full.

    Best regards

    Jason Woolford

    So after I got the email yesterday, I told my just-turned 11 daughter that her present would finally turn up today... now what do I tell her? Thanks a bunch Valutech.

    I'm sorry to hear that Carl, It's so frustrating when companies mess you about like that.

    You could try this link, it's a post I did last week. May be worth trying for the £2 you have to pay for the clothing. But I am afraid I don't know the end date of the voucher. Have a read through the post anyway. I hope your daughter gets her present in the end!

    Just got off the phone to Valutech now to find that they had, after all, reserved one unit for me as they were aware it was for my daughter's birthday. Apparently it got delayed slightly but should now be with us in the morning.

    Would like to commend them on resolving the issue satisfactorily including a generous compensatory offer, so well done Valutech, you have restored my faith in your business with that action.
