That is pure jokes!

Paid extra for Saturday delivery for sale order as knew someone would be home all day, DHL instead tried to deliver today (no-one in) and next redelivery day is 2nd Jan now which is the day we go away for two weeks

That's around the same time I ordered too. Feels like they've been really poor during sales in recent years.

Called DHL anyway, who say Mr P only paid for standard weekday delivery so Saturday not an option, they've managed to fit it in on the 31st after some pleading. And Mr P are refunding postage costs.

When does mr p usually hit 70% off?

They increased the price of an item I was looking at from £1500 to £2000 then put it on sale at 50% off the inflated price. Can't be arsed spending that sort of money as if i'm in a sports direct store so will shop elsewhere

spotted loads of shops do it. Especially around Black Friday

They're all at it with hiking up prices to artificially cut them - wine in supermarkets particularly bad for it.

Anyone got their sale stuff yet? Ordered on the 28th and still not dispatched.

They were all delayed due to sales apprently. Mine arrived last Friday and was ordered on 28th. I'm Hampshire if that helps. Definitely argue for discount code or refund on delivery.

Just gone 80%
