Just had a phone call off my dad. He’s got home to discover mister postman has dropped a card through his door. A package addressed to me has been sent to my dads address. There is an £11 postage charge for it…….WHAT THE ACTUAL F*!
Now, as far as I remember, I have an ld25 driver on the way from intl outdoor. I have a smallsun zy-t08 on the way from manafont. I have a package of drivers, u3 led’s and lobster claws on the way from intl outdoor. Ordered in that order. All have postage included and I have never been charged before. :~
What has occurred to me is my first uf-v3 disappeared in the post….
I can’t get the package till Monday, so just for giggles, anyone want to guess what it actually turns out to be? I have to admit to being baffled myself, but I’m guessing its the smallsun, its just the charge that bothers me, the damm torch was only £16.16…
Its the handling fee i bet.They charge that just for handling it.Even though the postage is paid.I betcha its a SMALL SUN……working we hope.Get a receipt when you pay the fee.About a week later and after paying they send an invoice demanding payment[sometimes they do].Spotted ya earlier[herd ya more like in the 4x4],lights at cross rds,left for ASDA i bet.Should be the 11th commandment,though should not go to ASDA on Saturdays.
Me too, never had a postal fee before, shipping charges at check out yes, but never the post office demanding money. We’ll see on Monday.
Yep, your right don, we did end up in Asda, weren’t supposed to but there you go. You’ve noticed the paws (pedestrian advanced warning system) then? 0:) J) if it is the small sun, I’ll be pretty p* tbh, its well under the tax threshold.
Look on the bright side pal.Its a tenth of the bill they sent me for the TN31.Dave,our postman is an old old freind of mine.Brought up together as raggy arsed trouser kids and he ends up being my postman.I see it as though im keeeping him in a job and love reminding him.Like having a personal postman.
LOL, postage is for handling - how are they going to deliver it if they don’t handle it?
If I didn’t ask them to handle it twice, then that’s BS (if the postage is insufficient and the seller is at fault - the choice should be to return it to sender).
Well, I’m going to have to pay the b**s to fund out what it is…. With that in mind I’ve charged two matched cells, stuck em in a case alongside my van key. If it is the smallsun, I can’t have it sat next to me and not have a fiddle. :bigsmile:
Still, I’ve got it, now I just need the day light to bugger off so I can play about carry out some sophisticated testing of this new product. :bigsmile:
gords1001, don't forget to give us your impressions and tailcap measurements (along with whether or not you find "Turbo") over in the ZY-T08 review thread! Besides, the sun has set already across the pond, hasn't it? (I just looked up sunset in London and see it set at 4:25pm! I can't imagine having the sun set that early!)
Oh don’t worry Gary, tailcap measurements are done, couldn’t find turbo though, and mine needs it…. its bonfire night though so we’re taking the kids to a firework display, obviously I’ll need a light, I just hope toni’s not on the ball…
:bigsmile: just got home to find my paracord I ordered Friday night has arrived too, so I’m set to tie some nice lanyards, might add one to the zy, see if it lifts the despondency a little.
Good news is, it drops in my winter jacket pocket no worries. 8)
