I would love to buy more from OCUK but I only seem to get Free Shipping on smaller Items. I need a PSU and the Superflower 750 Watt looks nice but the smallest Delivery is 8 or 9 quid(cant remember) so that kind of offsets any real good savings. I only live in West Central Scotland so nowhere near remote places. Is there a limit on the Free Postage that I am not aware of.

Not a Big complaint just wondered is there are Rules which I was not aware of.

These seem to be the postcode areas that DPD class as "Highlands and Islands":

The UK postcode areas that DPD state as offshore, taking 2 working days, are all of Northern Ireland, that is postcodes starting BT. All of the Isle of Man,that is postcodes starting IM. The Channel Islands GY and JE postcodes, Scottish Islands, HS1-9, IV40-51, IV55-56, KA27-28, KW15-17, PA20, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-78, PH42-44, ZE1-3, Scilly Isles, TR21. Also some of the Scottish Highlands - postcodes AB31, AB33-38 & AB44-56, FK17-99, G83, IV1-28, IV30-39, KW1-14, PA21-33, PA35-40, PH18-26, PH30-42

I'm in G83 - One mile outside G82 it seems

Bizarre they think that- I am no where near any Highland and Islands- Infact I am nearer Glasgow than anywhere remote

They deliver to me for free with other people

Page 13 has dropped Aberdeen to a 2 day service... Laaaame.

Disappointing that they've went this way, as paid for 2 day delivery just isn't that great a service.

DPD, buy a new map!

If you check their website at http://www.dpd.co.uk/service_lookup.jsp
Aberdeen city center is coming up as a next day service still?

DPD seems to have disappeared from my checkout for me. I haven't given anyone access to my account. Anyone have any ideas?

What are you buying?

As smaller items less value items get sent via Royal Mail.

Ah, I was buying an item under £50. Thanks!

How do you register for free shipping?

... by reading the first post in this admittedly quite long thread, which will explain all!

It is still going.

Great news.

You guys are great for supporting your amazing community. I'm not even interested in getting the 250 posts i have been enjoying the forum regardless.

Free shipping is not something i would personally give for 250 posts, more like 1000 posts... and for them to be registered for at least 2 years.

But thats me personally

I never realised this. I need to post more on the forums.

DXP55 · 20 May 2015 at 19:08

I placed an order at 2.45 on Saturday and it was on my doorstep at 8.33 on Monday morning - how good is that - Not only OCuk but DPD.

Very pleased with the service of both of them.

Ordered Saturday Morning delivered Sunday morning how good is that

Montala · 24 May 2015 at 16:33

I would guess that the courier for the above was DPD, who do seem to offer excellent service... especially at weekends!
