On-line Memory http://www.onlinememory.co.uk/ shows items as being in stock when they are not. Having ordered a 16Gb SDHC card I find out 6 days later it is not in stock and the company has no idea when it is likely to be. To be fair, I was not charged, but it might be prudent to give them an old-fashioned telephone call first before ordering. _________________ Mike -

To be fair this has happened to me with more well known retailers than this. I would only have been suspicious if i'd been charged for the item(s) only to then be told it wasn't in stock. |

It is the sheer frustration of being told the item was in stock only to find out 6 days later that it is not and there is no immediate prospect of knowing when it will be. I needed the card for a specific date and am now playing catch-up! Others in the same position of myself may be prepared to pay a little extra, from, say, Amazon. _________________ Mike -

Play.com is usually OK, just got a PNY 16GB for £17.99 delivered.
Still waiting for an Arkon Non-Skid / Friction Style Weighted Dash Mount from BlueUnplugged.com though, three weeks and counting... |

7Dayshop.com in Guernsey are pretty good on stock and delivery. I just got 2 x 8Gb SDHC Toshiba cards for £21.98 for the two, delivered.
I had previously received 2 x 4Gb Kingston cards, but one was DOA and the other stopped working after 24 hours. Filled in the returns form and got a full refund within 24 hours.
The new cards came in 2 days which is not bad as I ordered them after midnight! _________________ Ric - TomTom 520 DEAD - Passed to the great traffic jam in the sky. Now using Maps & Waze on Samsung Galaxy S4 + CamerAlert of course! |
