2nd class post?

Being a tight No Swearing! I ordered up some cheapo ram from OCUK last Friday and paid 2nd class delivery, just wondering now whats a reasonable period of time for RM to actually deliver it?

"3rd working day" so if not put in post till monday then i'd expect it today or tomorrow

So that will be next friday then

2-3 working day I would have thought.

I recently sent two CDs by 2nd class post and they never arrived at their destination. :mad:

Shipped Friday apparently, thought I would have them today, but maybe tomorrow??

2nd hand post - or as I call it "safe post" as the post man won't open it and nick the contents as it's less likely to be valuable..

I've been trying to sort insurance quotes recently and was told by a couple that I'd be getting stuff through the post, which hasn't turned up. Not sure whether that's the insurance company not sending or the mail's fault...

I ordered a Headset at midday on Monday via first and checked order at midday today and it hasnt even left OcUK

Ill see if it has tomorrow, and if not, im going to go mental

Well it turned up this morning so 4 working days isn't bad for RM I reckon

Under recent modernisation 2nd class now means "Get there when it gets there".

That said the 'christmas rush' appears to be starting to build up already! Though somewhat strangely it only seems to be packets and parcels at the moment. This may explain the delay, but even so it's a pretty poor show if we're being put under strain so early.

2nd class tends to be 2-9 days I find.

Megahurtz400 · 22 Nov 2007 at 17:18

Headset came today, Happy times

You're lucky - I'm still waiting for 1st class stuff posted over a week ago :mad:

coolpunkskater · 22 Nov 2007 at 17:42

its about 3-4 depending on how far away you are from the person sending u the item

I sent something 1st class to 2 ppl same item same packing ect even sent at same time

m8 that lived within 1 hr's drive of me got hes next day the m8 that lived 3-4 hrs drive away got it next day

when i comes to RM dont trust them and give them bags of time to deliver

Forgive me if I don't trust the Royal Fail this Christmas if I can avoid it.
