Title: UK Vendors - your thoughts please
Post by: Nonmouse on February 11, 2013, 12:37 pm
I'll tell you what I think. They need to pull their bloody fingers out.

Poor to non-existent comms, slow to go into transit, slow overall delivery, average to poor overall quality.

I certainly don't want to tar them all with the same brush but most of them should just go back to the local pub and make their money selling to their friends.

Your thoughts please.

I've tried a few uk vendors and they have all been good. Delivered within 2/3 days of ordering.

I've found most of the UK vendors I use to be great, infact a lot of my favourite vendors on The Road are UK based.

Good to hear your points of view - I must just have been having some bad luck recently.  I have been on the peripheries of this game for too long to know that nothing ever runs as it should but things have definitely taken a turn for the worse for me latterly.

I don't wish to name and shame - I leave genuine feedback using the feedback system for its proper use.

Anybody else have any thoughts?

There's some good guys in the UK. I think part of the problem is that Royal Mail are slow as treacle at the moment!

I have no problem ordering from the EU but when UK vendors have stock of what I need then I would rather not cross borders.  That said, I have several orders outstanding and a number of poor transactions with vendors who I would never use again so it looks like I will be forced into going abroad.

Nonmouse,

Is there anybody in particular that you refer to?

I have had one experience with one UK vendor who was slow and sloppy on comms, but I have opted out of ordering exactly for that reason. Every other one I have encountered were really good.

If you need a suggestion I would point you towards JoR (jususofrave) and there are many more, but the list would depend on what you are after.
