ebuyer


Recommended Posts

I was in the market for an MP3 Player and noticed ebuyer sold it cheaper than Overclockers.co.uk. So i ordered it on Wednesday and picked priority delivery. It said it would be shiped on Thursday and delievered on Friday to me. Thursday comes and goes and "Pick in Progress still shows on the status. Friday arrives and goes too, no MP3 Player and the status is still the same.

I rung them up but was on hold for about 5 minutes so put the phone down. I sent an enote yesterday (Friday) but still don't have a reply. Its as if my order/account doesn't exist to them. I should of paid that extra ?15 and got it from Overclockers.co.uk. Abit late now though as I am going away on Monday and wanted to take it with me instead of my CD Player and a load of CDs.

Its the first time I have used ebuyer and the first time I have ever had any problems with online shopping. I have had no problems with Amazon.co.uk, Overclockers.co.uk and Play.com.

Relax, you only ordered it on Wednesday and have to pay extra for Saturday delivery. When you ordered you would have selected a date for it to arrive by, I find it usually arrives before this date but won't arrive on a Saturday unless you pay extra for that. I'd say it'll be with you on Monday. I've ordered from eBuyer with no problems before.

The date I selected was Friday 2nd July.

Just checked my bank balance and the money as gone out for the MP3 Player and is dated 5th July which is Monday. Even if it does get delievered on Monday, I won't be here to receive it unless I can go to City Link warehouse at 7am on Monday to collect it but I don't have a consignment number yet or even know if it will be there by that time.

You should of had it yesterday according to the screen shot. Ebuyer suck. It takes about 1 week for them to reply to eNotes.

Overclockers Delivery is Excellent. Amtrak Are always here before 9:30AM.

ebuyer are great for prices, terrible for delivery unless you pay extra.

i've spent about 3 grand with them, never really had any problems, just be prepared from stuff a day or 2 late now and then.

If I knew it might be late by a couple of days I would of ordered from Overclockers and paid the extra ?15 for a much better service.

ebuyer are probably the cheapest etailer in the uk and the best imho. (Y)

Just send a enote and im sure they'd refund the delivery costs

Funny that, I ordered a 256MB RS-MMC card on Friday night and got in Monday morning. And you waited on hold for 5 minutes before hanging up? Kinda got what you deserved really...

Ebuyer took 2 working days to reply to mine, plus I possibly sent it to the wrong department and was (to PCWorld standards) a difficult question.

Usually people are on hold for 20 mins at ebuyer. (I had two people enquire about different things, both on hold for 20 mins).

Just checked out ebuyer's website again and the status now says invoiced. Clicked the link to track it on City Links website and says it arrived at 5.30 today (saturday). Right, the delievery date says the 5th July which is this Monday and I set off in the morning at 7.30 for the week. Does anyone know if City Link open on a Sunday or really early on a Monday?
