    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

    Have they actually agreed to give you a refund?

    I have experience with a large supermarket and when this type of thing happened, we simply waited for the customer to contact us to pay for delivery again. We didn't offer a refund as we had completed our side of the contract.

    sportsdirect.com say their courier will attempt 3 deliveries before returning the item. give sportsdirect a call.

    sportsdirect.com don't have a telephone number. As soon as they receive parcel back they do a refund. I have sent one more e-mail to customer services.

    But you haven't. Your contracted to deliver the goods to the customer, if the customer hasn't received the goods you clearly haven't fulfilled that.

    Saying that, they would be within their rights to make a reduction to cover return costs if their terms permitted it
  • I receive my refund!!! Its amazing!! Best internet shopping expirience:beer:
