Free delivery?

When can we expect free delivery again on OcUK? Common, make it a perminant thing on orders over £49.99, or even £99.99 !!

Same here, apart from stuff I can't get from one of the three big e-tailers I can get to within 20-30 mins. I also think that, in general, prices are just a little bit higher here, that's not to say they don't do some excellent prices. If they did free delivery, I'd probably get a lot more stuff from here.

I tend to wait till I want a few things then order in one hit, so the delivery cost to total cost ratio doesn't look too bad. However a number of places have free delivery on orders over £49.99. We want our free delivery!

i agree free del would make ordering a more pleasent experince

Its what I tend to do and if I need something urgently then OcUK do miss out sometimes because the delivery costs make them more expensive than else where at times.

At least free del on orders over some money would be good (like 50 quid)

Ditto +1, it doesn't help the last two orders from them weren't even packaged up - just put into a City Link plastic carrier bag (RAM and PSU). There's no way I'm ordering delicate parts from now on.

This keeps getting mentioned. The delivery options are getting better. I think last time they offered free delivery, they didnt get as many orders as they hoped so decided it wasnt really worth it. I seem to recall someone saying that.

Oh and

+1 from me!

Very true - there are Royal Mail options now as well (First and Second Class) which is a step up by giving people choice.
