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
arrive. I'd say tht if you haven't received a dispatch note by now, give'em a
call...

The most disappointing thing is that I now have to put the UCS and Falcon sets
in the loft until my birthday - in December :-(

Cheers,
Kev

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 have been informed via email that the
order has been despatched.

I expect it to arrive tomorrow or Friday.

Maybe they've been having trouble putting together the larger orders.

Has any one who ordered as early as 29th
not got their order yet?

Yes me :(

I have an order confirmation but no despatch notice for my order placed on
29-12-00 at 10:37am.
I'm beginning to think that £150 for a Silver Champion, a Millennium Falcon
& a Blue Turbo Railway Express was too good to be true!
