Hmm given the issues I has getting my raspberry pi kit from Farnells don't expect to get the items quickly indeed if at all. They take orders for stock they do t have and then constantly shift delivery dates before saying weeks later that they now can't deliver.

But good luck if you get them

Was a bit dubious about ordering when I read this, but in fairness to them the orders I placed late on Tuesday evening have just arrived. Good little items and very pleased.

I ordered the gift bags on weds and received today very happy!

If you are buying from CPC please always try adding 2 digits to the order code. ie 01 all the way to 99. 07 and 87 in particular.
Try for example BT00075 below which is £10.57 for 1-9.

Then if you try BT0007587 it just about halves the price.

Hi superbigal many thanks for this. Do you have to go through all the combinations until you strike lucky? I have just had an order from them delivered today. You sound more patient from me though, but I will certainly give it a try. :T

They release a magazine that usually has the weekly code.
However many codes stay live for no apparent reason.
07 and 87 are known internally as their bulk codes.
Usually apply when you are ordering larger quantities.
If you are really lazy/cheeky you can phone them up and ask.
It is a rather odd and hidden system unless you are in the know.
They have been free delivery and handling on all orders for about 2 months now.
Previously £45 before free delivery and £30 (I think) to avoid a low cost handling charge.
You lot getting things delivered by UPS (On occasion) for £0.12 plus vat are certainly the loss leaders for them.
