Max Kane Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Have ordered them today. For the headphones and record bag it set me back £125, lot of cash to splash on gear but should be worth it. Just means no vinyl purchases this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aza Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 I still reckon Sonys are better Global leader in electronics - accept nothing but the best! Only exception is pioneer in the audio sector... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuro Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Only exception is pioneer in the audio sector... What about with regard to hi-fi systems? I'm building up my hi-fi out of separates - gonna stick with Sony's so the actually fit on top of each other and look nice - need a good amp as my next purchase really...

bigsteve Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 My seperates are a mix of different brands, Denon, Technics, Marantz, Sherwood and Philips. They don't stack particularly well, but the sound aint too bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Kane Posted May 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 :x :x :x F*ckin idiots! :x :x :x Have recieved my order this morning, headphones are fantastic look forward to many many hours spent using them, but oh my word (thought i toned that down quite well) the tools at Technics & Chemical have sent me a record bag missing a zip! Can you believe it? The front compartment has no bleedin zip on it. And on top of all that chemical have insisted i pay recorded delivery to send it them back! after they sent me dodgy stock. i better get some closure It amazes me the level of idiocy that still thrives in a culture where about half of the population has recieved some form of higher education.

Max Kane Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 They did say i would be re-imbursed for postage yeh, they better aswell i wouldn't mind somethin like a £ but £6 odd takes the p*ss really. If ever there's something up with the next one i will be making a traditional 'angry consumer' phone call to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuro Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 I hate going into the Post Office with enormous packages at peak-time hours, loads of queues and not bring able to fit the thing through to them through the glass panel... did you have to go round the back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsteve Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Yeah, I hate going to the PO to get stuff weighed. The queue is always full of people with long-winded problems to do with their savings account or something. Lets have Post Offices as POST offices, not as a mini-bank/insurance agent/etc :evil: Having said that. I have found a small PO nearby (not a big High Street one) and they're really friendly and rarely have to queue. Support the local PO's :!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Kane Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 I use a local one which is just out of town, hardly anyone ever in there and they had a special little draw to get my package thru which saved any unneccessary inconveiniance.

Quadrant Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Definitely support the local Post Offices - all this Government TOSH about having to close them due to financial difficulties - bollocks! They're part of British tradition and are crucial to the community in most small towns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissie Brown Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 There is a small post office just up the road from where l live and in order to survive it sells gardening tools, household goods and all manner of things. The couple who run it are very helpful and don't close for lunch and also stay open all day Saturdays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Kane Posted May 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 Only just realised that there is no way i'll get my bag re-sent out to me before tuesday at the earliest, basically delayed me by a week. It'll probs take another week for em to refund me my postage too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Kane Posted May 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Still waiting for my bag to be re-delivered, chemical are starting to really piss me off now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsteve Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Are they going to credit your card with the P&P costs, or will it be acredit note :? Let us know what happens, it could be one of us next time :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Kane Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Just phoned em up to see why my bag hasn't arrived a week after i sent it back, they initally claimed they hadn't recieved it! So i went on Royal Mail's tracker mail option and saw that they have recieved my bag back, last saturday. Redialed and spoke again saying that chemical had recieved it last week and that i didn't really like the idea that they hadn't bothered to send me a new one. Then they tried to claim it was my fault and i wasn't gona get postage back, the cheeky b*stards. Needless to say i kicked off and shall be doing so for every working day that goes by without my bag being recieved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigsteve Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 I'm shocked too, I've never had any problems with Chemical. Although I did get a ghost email yesterday saying my order has been processed and will be dispatched shortly. I haven't ordered from them in months! I checked the order number, and it was the order I received 2 months ago! Tbf, Chemical responded when I told them about and they said ignore it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
