I just get inundated with a lot of crap like that from other people here at work who forward that kind of **** to me all the time asking if it's legit, and 99.9% of the time it's not, so I'm a little trigger happy. I'll have to look into it more in depth and straighten it out. thx

Shut up, tart.

I'm a cheap guy. Plus they're the only ****s who would ship to this **** hole.
To answer Bat's claim, yes they did give me a "delivery date" but it was between two dates, and I naturally assumed it would be closer to the sooner than the later date, given that it's the ****ing UK not Bosnia or Chad it's coming from.

Rookie mistake. Those long waittimes are to cover the company's ass if the workers decide to sit on your order and wank for a few extra days.

Then they should call it delivery order including tossing time. At least then I'd know. ****ing annoying though that I've been charged so much (comparatively, given the prices of the books) for delivery and yet I'm going to be waiting as long as if I had bought this off ebay from a Chinese seller. Lazy ****ing Brits. I suppose after Brexit it'll cost a **** ton more, too, and take longer, since they're being towed out into the North Sea so as not to be contaminated by us Eurotrash.

To be completely honest, I'd got so many "red warnings" (ie this product cannot be delivered to your address, please choose another - as if I live in two countries) that when I didn't get it the last time I just pressed the commit button. Should have checked. But I still would have had to do it anyway. I repeat: lazy ****ing ****s.

What did you think the date range meant? If I'm reading correctly, it arrived within that timeline so you should have known.

You're not reading anything, so how can you know? I never said: so for all you know, the dates could have been Feb 22 to March 1, but it hasn't arrived, and isn't slated to till March 16. So I don't know how you can make that statement unless you've seen my order which of course you have not.

Wasn't like this in my day Amazon blah blah people knew the value of things blah blah fair day's work for a fair day's pay etc.

Actually, it was: I worked for almost thirty years within the freight logistics sector and they were always the ****ing same.

So you misread or didn't read the estimated shipping date range and want Amazon to pay.

Yes.

Actually, I don't want them to pay anything. I'm just annoyed. I don't see how it can take 3/4 weeks to get something small shipped from the yoo-****ing-kay!

But if anyone's offering to sacrifice their customer services department to the Great Lord Cth'ulu, I won't stop them.

Remove the mod-approval for journal posts, PLEASE!

What would actually make sense was if the journal owner's posts appeared immediately, while the journal owner - not a mod - would be allowed to OK posts by other users.

I agree. After a little digging, I found that a "Usergroup" could be setup, but I haven't dug that far into it. Hell, I don't know, I could even be looking at something completely different, but it seems all functions and support for journal development within vBulletin is laid out here:
