  • Thanks to everyone on this forum, i have been religiously reading all your hints, and i like lots of us here managed to get a wii from amazon. it was delivered yesterday by parcelforce while i was out and they left it with a neighbour. the neighbour now wont give it to us, and i've had to call the police. amazon said they dont have anymore stock, so cant replace it, and the police dont hold much hope of getting it back for me. i just want to cry, cry, cry!!


    OMG!!!! How can this happen. surely the police need to do something.

    Can't find it at this price. Have they gone up or am I doing something wrong.

    I think they have gone up as I was halfway through purchasing the item at £190 and the item listed in the final confirmation screen as being £267.90...

    Not that desperate for one!!

    Err yes Mr Cherry Picker I did :rotfl:

    Ahh, so you countered my sarcasm with some of your own.

    Clever. :D
  • the neighbour says they know nothing about it. the parcel was signed for by ''smith'' which they say is not their name. boo-hoo....police say it is very hard to pin point who actually took my parcel as its a fake name, and to find it is near on impossible.

    Think they have to be signed for. If its not your signature it would be proof.

    Amazon have been known to leave parcels on doorstep
  • amazon said they dont have anymore stock, so cant replace it

    In which case, Amazon should give you your money back. It's their responsibility to get the goods to you. If their carrier left it with a neighbour, that's Amazon's problem and Amazon need to sort it out with Parcelforce and your neighbour. Granted you're now back at square one and don't have a Wii, but you should have your money back and can join the hunt again.

    1/10 on the trollometer.
    That's far too high.
