Topic: P&B Posted: 05 Jan 09 at 5:59pm |
Placed an order with P&B for a new kite through insurers over 2 weeks ago. Havent heard anything even after two phonecalls, one voicemail on nelly's phone and two emails.
Is P&B just being slow with me or is it a problem recentely? Alex |

I remember having to chase up my last few orders with them ... Somehow I keep ordering stuff they don't actually have in stock ..
And then I don't hear anything from them saying its out of stock!! Hang in there, it'll turn up one day! |

Sounds like terminal impatience to me... two weeks from order for a new sail... Only if no-one else wants anything from them, in which case you might be even more worried!

Give em chance to eat their Christmas Pudding and actually time to make the sail!! I ordered a under cover for my B14 from them. I expect this was made to order as its not a popular class they they would supply for, so they probably don't hold stock. It came within a week so I was happy

They'll be making loads of sails due to end of year/Christmas deals. Two weeks is perfectly reasonable considering they've probably been on holiday for half that. |

If you can't carry it, don't sail it! |

Iv ordered two or three items from them now (clothing, smock or something). And have waited probably about two weeks for delivery, not at any particular busy time either.
Personally, I think their delivery times are poor compared to other competitors. Would be good to get a reason behind it? |

I've never had a problem with their delivery times, the stuff i've ordered has always come promptly, probably just busy crimbo time
