Free Shipping for Loyal Forum Members

Still no response on this, so looks like I'm going to be shopping elsewhere.

Shipping doubles the cost of the item I'm looking at and the free shipping was a big incentive to continue shopping here :(


EDIT

NM - working now :s

I only checked 2 mins ago and it wasn't working!

This is great of OCUK, It deffo gives more of an incentive to be more active on the forums and helps create a decent community for all. There's many times i will refrain from buying an item because the postage kills it, if i can get where is needed to qualify then it will help me out and no doubt add a few more sales onto OCUK's books. I presume this benefit is still running? id rather not give myself arthritis, typing solidly for 3 months to pay full postage at the end anyway LOL!
If it is still valid then it's certainly a nice reward and gesture to the loyal OCUK Customers...Thanks Guys

I've learnt quite a bit in 6 months just browsing multiple subforums and threads and adding my two cents wherever I go and seeing replies.

Can we use a parcel drop-off type service as the UK address to qualify for free shipping? Or would that be using technicalities to defeat the spirit of the law?

You would have to ask the shop directly. I would have thought it would be fine as the limitation to UK addresses is primarily there to prevent having to pay high fees shipping to foreign countries. There might be an issue if the parcel drop off service won't sign for the receipt of the delivery.
 
You won't get it on everything. We only get it on cheap/lightweight stuff that can be posted RM 2nd class up here because DPD classes anything north of Dundee as Highlands and Islands. Anything bulky and we have to pay. Even paying for delivery we can't get next day delivery due to DPD's second rate service up here.
 
Been gone for years from OCUK, but trying my best to contribute and try and stay on topic while increasing post count obviously. It's amazing that they even do this to be honest. I am curious how they maintain this probably through a deal with the delivery companies?. I am considering placing an order soon without free delivery for now and when I finally hit the threshold for free delivery I will be really happy and I will order more stuff :D.
