  Re: eToys closing down
 
I placed 3 orders with etoys on the 29th & 30th December and 1st January. So far none have arrived although I have been e-mailed to say that the one ordered on the 30th is on the way. Has any one who ordered as early as 29th not got their order yet? (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)

(...) I received no replies to my email either, but managed to get through on the phone. The trick is not to "press 1 for order enquiries" as instructed; just wait until the blurb is over and you get redirected to a human operator. Jennifer Clark (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)

Hang on in there. I'm completely confident that my power puller, silver champ., falcon, UCS X-wing & TIE-fighter, vision control, football championship and blue turbo will arrive before the end of the week. I ordered them at 6pm on 29th Dec, and (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)
 
  Re: eToys closing down
 
Yep, I'd echo that. We placed a large order on the 29th and it only arrived today, whereas some smaller orders we placed after that were delivered a few days ago... For the record, we had a dispatch note dated on the 5th, so it took 5 days to (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)

  Re: eToys closing down
 
I had an order (£236) delivered today that was ordered on 30th December. Wow What an enormous box. I have still heard no news on the order made 2 days before but did manage to get to talk to etoys. I was told that the credit card had to be checked (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)
