I know you've recommended yours a few times. I think these are similar to the ones you've got. These certainly look very similar to yours.

With his having to perform such a tedious job that offers little prospect of advancement, your parcels & reading your subsequent posts is probably his primary solace..
You wouldn't want to deprive him of that, now would you mate...

No Rossgo I have lots of luck....just it's all bad luck. Waited in all day for 3 deliveries that never came the other day even though the delivery was confirmed. Waited in a 2nd day and it arivved at 7pm and you guessed it damaged. Not cheap tat either but furniture from a high end (allegedly) retailer.


Society is broken. No one cares, manufacturers don't appreciate quality. It's all about speed and cost saving these days unfortunately and that includes high end retailers. The only difference with people like John Lewis and Dwell etc are they will sorted it out for you after the event, but the problems still exist in the first place unfortunately.

I know how you feel a bit blade, no furniture but the last 2 UPS deliveries ive had, both had messages saying out for delivery, both failed to arrive, resulted in lots of chasing them down only to get the good about a week later. luckily not damaged but not sure how the way they treat them

I tend to agree with you there Blade, nowadays its only one way, speed. No necessarily the best for us always but thats how the world works now

just sent a very wordy complaint to UPS, not hopefully, after I sent it I realised that it relies on whoever picks it up to be able to read

The only way is to vote in a harmless nutter and not vote for the big two parties anymore - otherwise they wont listen.
