    Oh, so the mystery one at 11:45 is another Black & Decker item!

  • It was hidden upcoming deal up to 10 minutes ago. When I refreshed the page it showed up as a B&D item.

    oh i just seen that they are now using yodel to deliver their items which means i will probably have to take a day off work to get these items delivered.
    why did they stop using royal mail?

    They haven't. They seem to have a pool of companies they use. I had something delivered by DPD today & Amazon tell me another item is being delivered by Royal Mail.
    :)
  • The US site isn't that much better than here this year. Bit more variety but nothing to get excited about.
    They do have an Xbox 360 coming up in 8hrs and a nice Fuji camera in an hour BUT I don't see much else on there.
    Last year I managed to get a few things for family & granddaughter in the US. A couple of items granddaughter had asked for were bought at good prices.
    This year I don't think I'm going to get anything.

    My item from yesterday has just been shipped via royal mail so it's not everything :)
    just my luck that the 2 things i ordered are going with yodel.
    they are only small so i dont see why they need a courrier.

    I think they still use RM for small things, but they are expensive and unreliable I think for larger deliveries - let Amazon down a lot last winter.

    Most bigger stuff has come via courier to us for a while, I'm guessing yodel has offered them good rates.
    I try not to get too stressed out on the forum. I won't argue, i'll just leave a thread if you don't like what I say. :)

    Yep, partner ordered yesterday and Royal Mail delivered it this morning.
    Fast delivery from Amazon I must say :T

    Just bought the Clint Eastwood boxset, have been debating for ages if I should get it for the hubby, this made my mind up as the only place with a similar price was Morrisons and I can't get there without him! So saved a load of faffing around! Apart from that though this years stuff is pretty dire!
