Seems to be very common now, I now ring to see if they actually have. Flat dog doing same thing, saying in stock then when you ring “it’s being delivered this afternoon” - anyone can drop ship without holding stock but then we might as well go direct ourselves.

Probably be a shorter thread to list companies that actually have stock of their own rather than ordering once you do sadly.

^^ PA Blanchard. If they've not got it their system says so... Posted the same day if you get an order in in the morning, superbly well packed, often still in its original MoD packaging. Superb service and will be badly missed when they close. I really do hope the stock is not dispersed to the winds...

Now I'm really, really annoyed !  We arrived home this evening after a weekend away to find the my order had been delivered, probably yesterday. Safely placed in a shed by the courier. So far, so good......until I open it and find that I've been sent the wrong product !  I ordered a Defender type TUBELESS rim, whats arrived is clearly stamped "Tubed"....

So, not only have I had to wait while they ordered in a product, they've not actually sent what I ordered !
