    I ordered on the 27th November and got the notification that the laptop has now been shipped today the 15th. I received shipment of the laptop last friday the 12th. If you can figure out how they do business fair whack to you, me I'm confused although if another one came through the door I would be a happy chapy.

    We should throw a party!

    I just got the email saying my order has been despatched even though I received in on Friday. Looks like it was automatically generated when they closed off my open order so I'm not expecting another one to land on my door...

    On Friday, 5 minutes after my NC10 was delivered I got an email from the Hut saying that they couldn't despatch it until they got my phone number (even though they already had it)....

    Still no sign of mine, dispatched about 5 days ago according to their emails.

    Have contacted Sendit for tracking details, hopefully shouldn't be too much longer.

    parsi,

    You are singlehandedly the most sceptical person I've ever witnessed!

    :D

    They took money off your card and sent you a despatch notice yet:

    I know. Shocking isn't it ;) Not even a tracking number !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 107 ✭✭darraghn


    Got my Blue NC10 from a courier an hour ago. Just setting it up now. First impressions are good - love the physical look and feel :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,011 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    darraghn..

    Where does it say on the package that it originated from?

    Just curious as haven't heard back from TheHut for my VAT inclusive invoice.

    Enjoy it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 107 ✭✭darraghn


    Hi basquille. Package came from Computer2000 in Cheshire in the UK, so no VAT invoice required IMHO;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,011 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Mucho graciás darraghn.. thanks for that!

    Arrgghh.. sent it to parents house so have no idea if it arrived. It had better!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,544 ✭✭✭blobert


    My Sendit one arrived today.

    Send from

    M H International

    Now to work out how to get the box home on the bike (its too big for my bag)

    Would ye not be worrying about having to pay VAT on it.

    Even if it is stopped all of the documentation it ships with shows UK addresses no mention of your super duper Caymen islands tax scam!;):D

    The reason I'm worrying about VAT is I read a forum post saying that orders in Euro are shipped from the Belfast or the UK.

    Whereas orders in sterling were shipped from the Channel Islands.

    It looks like they are shipping orders from at very least 3 different UK based distributors (none from the Channel Islands). I'd keep hassling them if I were you.

    Will pop them an ticket for a tracking number.. but I'm still waiting for a response for a ticket 2 days ago.

    Might ring UTi and see if they have a delivery for me in the morning as they could find out by surname last week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,964 ✭✭✭Hmm_Messiah


    I got an email but boards.ie was not allowing me to post earlier

    basically
    We apologise for the continued delay in sending your item(s) listed below. Please be assured that we are following this up as a matter of priority in order to try and get your order to you as soon as we can

    am very disappointed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭vibe666


    might be worth cancelling and going with elara if you want one in time for xmas. :(


  • Site Banned Posts: 5,904 ✭✭✭parsi


    Came into work this morning and there on my desk was a box from Computer 2000 with the NC10 inside.

    I'm happy now.

    I wasn't in a hurry for this but the whole thing does make me reluctant to use The Hut to purchase an item that had to arrive by a certain time.

    Thanks to the OP (Basquille) and his mighty bargain-sniffing nose :)

    Lucky you parsi.. hope I get it today so!

    Won't ring UTi til after lunch as I'll ring the "parental units" in a while and see if it arrived.

    PS - to be honest.. if anyone deserves credit, it's Kintarō Hattori for spotting the euro misprice. Was completely unaware of that!


  • Site Banned Posts: 5,904 ✭✭✭parsi


    Thanks to Kintarō Hattori as well.

    I'm still waiting aswell. Got a message friday saying they could'nt guarantee delivery for Christmas, problems with suppliers, etc, etc. Sending them another message today to see what the story is. Not holding out much hope of getting it for christmas at this stage.
