    Received what should have been a DVD item today but the sender didn't bother to make up the box properly. They just put the foam pad, Smart and form into the cardboard and sealed over. You could see the foam at each end and it was lucky it didn't all fall out from either end.


    As the R.... slip actually says CD/DVD box on it, wouldn't you think that they would realise it needed to be put together?


    I do wonder about the intelligence of some of the members doing the survey.

    I wonder if it's from the same dimwit that did exactly the same to me the other week.
    I had one of those too. Lashings of clear tape to try to seal the ends. Dimwit is too kind a description.
    Are you for real? - Glass Half Empty??

    No tape on mine so maybe we have more than one.

    No tape on mine either so looks as though there is more than one.


    I took a chance and sent an email to point out what had happened. Hope it doesn't get me taken off but did point out that we receive plenty of odd parcels and books which have similar packing so our postie wouldn't have noticed anything odd.

    Hi again
    Just a query about smarts, this is only my third week back on
    the panel and after making next weeks mail up I still have 5
    Smarts left, should I just keep hold of them or send them back?
    They used to ask for them back on a Friday morning what was
    listed in red, not sure if it is still the same
    They send smart return reminders in with the next posting
    Pack, but it is just a general letter
    Thanks for advice

    You just need to return any that turn red on the system, keep any others for future use.

    Thanks Damio
    I knew that's what we used to do last time I was on but it
    was unusual to have 5 in stock
    Thanks for all the advice handed out on this site it is much
    easier than trying to get through to them on the phone too
    Cheers

    I've been sending letters for a few weeks now, and have just received a cube and letter to send.
    I've only had one lot of stamps so far.. when should I receive stamps?

    Re the magazines, I had one show up while I was still on the practice runs, and it finally appeared properly on the page a couple of weeks after so hang onto it and keep checking. If you tick the "no r number" box it'll eventually show you what's on the way. I had an emai today to tell me to expect a film magazine, but I've never had forewarning before, they've just arrived.
    I had a roll of Sellotape today as well, to use on the various boxes. Better quality than my usual stuff as well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
