Defcon Tactical minus the tact
I ordered a few cleaning brushes. Paid, got confirmation, mooi.
Next day, I get an email saying I have to wait 12 business days for their stock to arrive.
Why sell to me without telling me what you don't have in stock, you moron ?
I replied that I will wait 3 business days to dispatch, or refund. 3 business days is up, I've lodged a payment dispute.
@#$@#$ing chancers.War is convincing young people to kill complete strangers who are not a threat to them personally.

When you cant find something online but happen to find it listed on a single website, thorough research needs to be done before paying, otherwise ask Jeff Bezos, because Amazon takes only 2 weeks

Re: Defcon Tactical minus the tact
I got a laptop for my daughter from Amazon late last year. It was R4k cheaper than the nearest equivalent in SA on black barfday specials and got to me in 6 days. Place an order for a bunch of accessories (mouse, mouse pad and a cover) from a Takealot as i forgot them on the Amazon order and they arrived 14 days later. I reckon some SA online operations are effectively drop shippers and hold buggerall stock.

Re: Defcon Tactical minus the tact
I'm happy to pay a premium for a local online supplier to hold stock, that costs money and buys me convenience. I am not happy to pay the same premium for them to take my payment in full and then place an order somewhere else.

Re: Defcon Tactical minus the tact
They have an international shipping program where you are quoted all in and upfront. Don't know if that was what Steven001 used but it was what i did for the laptop. They sort shipping and duty and i actually got a small refund a week later as the duty had been slightly overstated. I'm less inclined to 'import' without that service as i have been caught out on duty and on the delays it causes. Suspect that Amazon has done some sort of deal to tame them.
