Yesterday afternoon, about 13:00, Mrs BI placed an order with Cult Pens. Within the hour the confirmation email arrived saying "Order despatched".

The postman delivered it (1st class post) about 10 minutes ago.

From placing the order online to delivery, just over 22 hours!

I didn't know anyone still provided that level of service.

Your stories of excellent service?

Screwfix are pretty good

I ordered tickets from the trianline.com at 16:00 and they arrived next morning.

They were sent from Edinburgh and I live near Bristol.

Amazon Prime is brilliant. Although I do get a little 1-Click happy sometimes.

I've ordered stuff at 6pm, and got it the next morning before.
