Purchased items on e-bay 22 November 2016 using what I thought where UK based only to find they where China suppliers and dates of delivery times issued where not met. On contacting the suppliers by email I was informed that they will not arrive on time. One item had been dispatched and the other was still awaiting stock.
I choked on my Bacon butty whilst looking to remedy this.
Gifts where needed for a young girls birthday which was within 2 days and for Christmas. Luckily I got full refunded by the friendly E-bay dealer who was waiting on stock.
With panic I search to get same gift from Amazon and I am offered Prime Free for one month with next day delivery and 48 hours on another gift(Ordered 29th 30th Nov).
Both Items arrived today and are now wrapped and ready to be given on Saturday. Now I can relax with a well earned whisky and a mince pie and look forward to buying more Christmas gifts with Prime.
