Guaranteed, next-day delivery is essential if, you, are like me, have kids and live in the middle of nowhere.

I hear you mate but unfortunately I'm an impatient twat. Seriously i don't buy that much online cos i really hate waiting, I'd rather pay more on the high street. (yes I'm well aware that's stupid)

[Paul@TheOverlook]

I respect that, mate but you make that choice because you know that you'll walk into the shop and can buy it there and then. You don't pre-order from site 'X' and then whinge when site 'y' has it first. There's SO much of this sort of sentiment online, particularly on Facebook - seems like a whole lot of wasted energy bitching and moaning about it (not here but on FB) - a pointless waste of time. And yes, I realise how ironic it is that I'm wasting my own time commentating on it

[J Harker]

Fair points Paul. I've got no issue if Amazon customers get there's sooner. I order from Arrow direct mainly because of the reward points system.

[Paul@TheOverlook]

That's a fairly decent system. You can accrue quite a sizeable amount in no time.

[J Harker]

I tend to buy half a dozen things when they have a sale then use the accumulated points on preorders like Hellraiser.

[Paul@TheOverlook]

Better that way than it is vice verse as the points diminish in value if you attempt to use them on sales items.

I'm gigging on Halloween anyway, so I won't be watching anything, only reason I want ASAP is to actually make sure I don't miss out

[J Harker]

I want it ASAP because i want it ASAP!

Yeah,supposedly guaranteed next day mate.

Depends on which courier/carrier they're scraping the barrell with at the time...

[Paul@TheOverlook]

Mine come via DPD or Royal Mail. Never have any problems.
