Best place for artificial Christmas trees.....

I would say you're better off looking in January if you want a good deal. After years of having a real tree, I got fed up with clearing up the dead needles after Christmas. So we bought one from JL that was like 70% off.

We got our's one from JL early in the year (2021) with a small discount. Same really before that we would get a real tree, but got fed up of the mess, taking it down afterwards always created a mess to clear up and in the long term we don't have to spend £30+ every year.

It's about time the government start slapping Amazon with fines for these. Most people will consider buying from Amazon, and being a big global company the expectations that the goods being sold will conform to any regulations etc.

Really? I'm not so sure. I think few people trust amazon for seriously legit stuff? eBay even less.

Yeah, then you have the fake reviews. So much tat on Amazon these days. It's not the reliable place it was.

You have more faith in the public than me :cry:

As most of us here will know that Amazon operate a huge marketplace for third-party sellers. But the number of times I read something where someone has purchased an item and assumed it came from Amazon when in fact it came from zaoufhhebakifh in someplace in China. Leads me to believe that people would trust Amazon for legit stuff.
 
I'm looking to replace my tree for next year, Looking for a small 4-5.5ft one. Needs to be green and easy to put up.

My parents had a tree which they donated to a charity shop. It looked very good but a faff to put up. Each branch was numbered and had to slot in the corresponding slot on the pole. The numbers had no logic. So branch no 24 was next to branch 31 and 41, above 15 and below 49.

A lot of the modern ones aren't like that. For a tree of that size it'll probably come in just 2 parts + stand. And then you just have to feather the branches.
 
If you good you can steal one from a user called Jay. Pop over to their workplace.
