Mine is now labeled as "shipped" on the Books Etc. website ... but no email from them yet 🤔

EDIT: I actually just found the dispatch email in my spam folder ... I only get access to it once every 24 hours (work protocol), so it's a good thing I checked ::facepalm1::

Just arrived home to my received book delivery. (Watch not included unfortunately)

Will need a 4th edition to cover the new SS 321 Ed White

Thanks again to @ewand for the heads up to this

Bloody typical. I ordered it first (on 23 Dec) and it hasn't arrived yet 😒

Really sorry mate, you should actually be getting a commission for the sales which your post has initiated!

Are you UK based?

Yep, southern England 😀 Never mind - I got the email on Monday >5pm saying it had been dispatched, so I thought it might arrive today but nothing. And no tracking number either. And I'll probably be out tomorrow so that means either arranging redelivery or going to pick it up 😁

TBH, I can't imagine Books etc are making a lot of money from this - maybe a few £ per book sold...

I’m sure that’s true but nonetheless your post still flagged it up to me and others and for myself I’m grateful to you for that.

Cheers

Well I ordered Flightmaster only too, and it wouldn’t have happened without this post. Now I am not sure if you should get commission, or I should be approaching you for compensation? Thanks anyway I think.

Hurray!

I was out when the Parcelforce man arrived, but my Ring security camera gave me the notification there was someone at the door - I could see him shifting about having rung the bell, and when I hit the mic button on the app so I could speak to him, a sudden whoosing noise from the train I was on (which I can hear on the playback, came through the speaker on the camera), made him drop the box by the front door and scarper 😁
