this bitch should be here by now - the north london depot is located in ACTON - I can take the underground n get then in about n hr
 
It has been delivered! Well, the tracking says it was signed by my GF so I'll pick it up at lunch time along with my rig as I need to use the compressor 'ere (at work) as my rig is relatively dusty. Can't f'ing wait!

Do I go straight ahead and flash the fucker to a 6970 or shall I fuck about with testing first. Hmmm....

:D

Shitty Link surprised the crap out of me by delivering and not lying.

Test first before flash, it would be nice to see some numbers on the actual differences between the "before & after" :toast:

The cheeky bint doesn't deserve any, she's signed for it but told me she hasn't.

Shitty Link have 30m of CAT6 cable lost in their system somewhere. Fuckers were meant to deliver it last Friday. As a result I am still sitting on a crappy 3G dongle.

Just checked again and it is back on the system. It took them 107 hours & 54 minutes to get it from the eBuyer warehouse to their delivery depot. Assholes.


BTW, my mate had a new TV disappear in the Citylink system for two weeks recently. They'd declared it stolen on the 30th (they had loads of contract drivers in to cover the snow disruption), but then found it again the next day. Luckily he lives a few hundred metres from the CityLink depot in South Wimbledon.

At least you got a card. I've had the same but they didn't even leave a card.

Remember to take two forms of ID to the depot. I've made that mistake before too. Utility bill + driver's license should do it.

I've already sent my note to eBuyer asking for a refund of the delivery cost. They are usually pretty good in that respect.



EDIT: sorry for the double post.
 
Regarding Shitty Link.
The company I work for uses them as a carrier for all our deliveries.
I spoke to city link direct this morning about my missing item that should have been delivered on the 30th December. Their reply was " We are still trying to clear the backlog from before Christmas", I replied " On your website it states there is no backlog, so what's the bloody point having it".
Shortly after a customer of ours phoned up asking where is my delivery. The delivery in question left here on the 15th of December and hasn't arrived. It wouldn't be so bad apart from the fact it's a full pallet weighing nigh on 1 tonne!
So what hope have we got for a small item like a graphics card or similar if they can lose a pallet full!!:banghead:

They admitted to my mate that they've been using loads of contract drivers in the past few weeks and have lost track of so much gear. For something that went out on the 15th it should be listed as stolen by now. ShittyLink's insurance is going to take a hammering. But then so are all the retailers that rely on them and have to send out replacement goods.

All I can say thank god Yoyotech is nearby and their prices aren't too bad. Nothing beats getting the stuff on the day and getting any problem solved straight away.

Suppose nobody is interested in a PS3 320gb? (Gave up with HMV)

That is bullshit. There are no fishes in the Thames.
