Guys, just need to cool the heels here a bit. Nothing untoward going on here, let's support the cause. In my case, i am looking for a tshirt that says 'Brazilian Kids Make The Best T-shirts'
Always felt better in a tshirt knowing there was some Brazilian kid in floods of tears making it.

12 hour shifts. Less than a euro an hour. Great work if you can get it.

I know and I'm as guilty as anyone of buying it, but we've fought long and hard for workers rights in the west, there's nothing to be gained for us or them by going backwards.
Sorry for dragging OT.

That's enough chat folks, stick to the bargains please!

Spoke to an employee in Heatons in carrickmines today , who confirmed twice that you can bring online purchases to any Heatons store for refund or exchange.

Tried a return in tallaght heatons today and was looked at like I had 10 heads! I saw UPS mentioned in a previous post for a return is there a free option any one is aware of or just anpost or click and collect

Yikes, it doesn't look good for returns so! It looks like the only option is a UK address and you have to pay yourself!!! That will be expensive!

Had I known that, I wouldn't have bought from here. I certainly won't be buying from them again.

I presume ye know you can return items using Parcel Motel for €3.50? For retailers that arent listed just select "Royal Mail" as the retailer. I've used it with success to a few shops in the UK

I've used ParcelMotel for CollectPlus returns, but how does using Royal Mail work?

Don't ParcelMotel have to pay the RoyalMail postal cost?

Sports direct aren't offering free returns, not even for people in the UKm from what I can see!

What PM have or have not to pay Royal Mail is of no concern to me. I just returned my stuff as normal, used RoyalMail and it was done It gets sent to the royal mail depot or post box, or whatever it is up north from PM's

Yikes!! That doesn't sound good! I don't think I'd risk €80 worth of returns over €10 extra postage!

Don't forget PayPal's refunded returns offer.

haha

I recently had to raise a dispute as I had received the wrong item (1 out of 10 correct) and the seller wouldn't respond to my emails. in actual fact, they didn't even respond to the initial dispute on paypal. anyway paypal found in my favour but wanted me to send the whole lot back and provide a registered post receipt and that I would have to pay the postage.

is this a new thing?

No it's around quite a while now. There was a thread started about it here in Feb 15.

Just make sure you activate the deal and actually use PayPal to pay for the goods.

I had to return to them once. I had to pay return postage cost via an post. Was about 14 quid registered. As for PM and Royal mail, I did that with another retailer too. I had to buy a label from Royal mails website then attach that to the package and return it using PM's Royal mail returns. It certainly wasn't free but it was a lot cheaper than sending it direct using An Post from Dublin. PM deliver it to the Royal Mail depot and they send it on.

Cool thanks, I'd be much happier doing that, that sounds like it is completely supported by parcelmotel.

But god, not worth it, certainly won't be buying from sports direct ever again!

Yes I gave up buying from them too.

Given SD own them I'd avoid Dunlop like the plague not sure about Helly Hanson. Any thing SD owned is never worth the discounted price let alone the asking price.

Despite being at a low price I've always found Dunlop products to be pretty good quality, generally great value for money.

Is it 60 after postage, or 60 then postage on top?

but it's not 12 off 60

it is spend 60 and get a voucher for 12..... to force you to come back again

hardly worth it as you will loose most of your 12 on postage!!
