More likely - they know who theyre sending it to...;)

Thats a good point  :mrgreen:

Serious

Quote from: Clockd 0NeThey send me about 30 invoices for the same order, then today I take delivery of a giant cardboard box expecting it to be a laser printer. Inside, cellophaned to the bottom of the box, is a USB cable. :lol:

I expect the printer will be delivered by a trunker, floating inside a huge box in an anti-gravity chamber, with inertial dampers. Talk about overkill.

Dell sent my brothers new 20 inch monitor in three boxes, one of which had a cable in that could have been easily contained in the monitor box and a second contained the manual?  :shock:  At least ten times the internal capacity that the book needed, they could have pushed it into a jiffy bag or included it in with the monitor too :/

TBH, I would let myself be fully warpped into a ball and chucked down a hill, that would be cool :)
Brainiac showed that you can chuck a tv out of a moving van on a race track wrapped in the stuff and it still plays so....

Excellent.

I have now received my printer (after the first went missing in shipping) and they have kindly sent out another 5m Belkin USB 2.0 cable :mrgreen:

its odd how dabs stuff tends to go missing or derlivered in a dodgy way.
My lan card for laptop never turned up and the guy signed it himself and chuked it over our fence if some of you remember, I found it wet, but sealed and ok, but since it was in the trees and passers by could have picked it up I said i never got it and got my money back ^^

There are a few companies where Parcelforce manage to find the house just fine, then a couple (including Dabs) where Parcelforce always seem to dump the packages at the post office without posting a card through the door and run, so as far as Im concerned they havent been delivered.

Do couriers act on different instructions from different companies?
