Of course it was a pain to have to wait for the item to be resent, however Wiggle were extremely trusting and painless to deal with.

Ordered 08 September 2012, now 13 September, the items don't even show up with the tracking code. I've contacted them, hopefully they will be able to sort it out.

My last Ribble order arrived in six days. This is the shortest time I have ever had to wait for an order. Even beats orders coming from Sydney.MarkG wrote:They all are -

However, the longest I have had to wait is three weeks. This was from Ribble as well.

My order got "stuck" meaning it wasn't picked up. I'll get a replacement instead. Fingers crossed.MarkG wrote:They all are -

Unfortunately our warehouse staff have been inundated with orders so they are taking slightly longer than the advertised timescales to be despatched. I can confirm that the order has been despatched today.
