    I got a email from pixmania relating to my order and thought "great, its my shipping label"

    but I opened it and it had this:

    they have to be taking the piss :mad::mad::mad:

    So after a long phone call with them yesterday, I just ended the call after I threatened to bring them to the small claims court and file a chargeback.

    I guess those threats worked because I received a UPS label in my inbox today :rolleyes: bunch of idiots

    Posted this in the off topic thread but this is probably the right place for it.

    The status on hvws site updated a few hours ago to...
    Current Status: The goods are ready for collection or assembling.

    From experience, how long do you think I'll be waiting? Living in Cork, if that matters.

    I had that for about 24 hours, now it says "The invoice was made".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,690 ✭✭✭✭Skylinehead


    Just dispatched, so you'll be waiting about a day, 30 hours at most.

    Just checked my order there with DHL and it says "The international shipment has been processed in the export parcel center" so it's in Koln. How long should it take. I live in Dublin. Not looking for exact figures just want an estimate.

    My order said that on Saturday 7th and I received it (well most of it) today.
    So I reckon about 3 more working days, maybe 4?

    Ah ok cool. Early to mid next week sounds perfect. Gives me enough time to gather some funds for an SSD(well hopefully.)

    Another update, UPS delivered the package to the pixmnaia RMA center today. I checked on the RMA status page and they have not even acknowledged that they have received it. I guess I will wait till Monday and see. Anybody have experience going through the RMA process with them?

    is this H100 on dabs showing up as €87.08 for anybody else? I checked it on my phone and the price is €106.39 which I presume is the correct amount but if I add it on my laptop is still comes in at the €87.08 price, would they honour it?

    Coming up as €106 for me. Its completely up to the retailer weather or not they will honor the transaction (once they don't take money from your card)

    Trying to order off of Dabs but I need the basket to get to over 2.7kg. I have it at 1.4. Anything really heavy and very cheap that I can throw in to get free delivery?

    Cheers but delivery is only €7.53. Don't want to be stuck with something I won't be using. Thought there might be some cheap printer paper going for like €2 or something to make up the weight haha.

    That was one weird order. While I was reading through the order it came up with "orders of €100 or over receive free delivery." Yet I ordered 4 (includes a laptop bag haha) items costing me €45 and I got free delivery.

    The dhl tracking site says my hwvs order has been in Koln since the 12th..

    Thu, 12.07.12 23:59 h
    Köln, Germany
    The international shipment has been processed in the export parcel center

    When do you think I'll get this? Mon, Tues Wed?
    Also, I heard that you can use the DHL tracking code on the An Post site. Is this true? Coz the code for DHL is in a different format than the usual An Post ones..

    Same. Mines been in Koln since the 12th too. I'd imagine it'll get here by Thursday at the latest. As for the an Post tracking code, I've no idea.

    EDIT: Try manually typing in the code into An Post worked just there for me mines in Portlaoise.

    Unfortunately, getting it delivered to Cavan (where the VAT number is registered) and getting it brought up to Dublin either Wednesday if it arrives Mon/Tue, or the weekend otherwise.
