Decathalon Southampton

[New Forest Terrier]

We are about to get a Decathalon in Southampton No more asking for a relay to get a quecha and they might even deliver.

Never understood their previous policy. I had to buy a base tent from Merryhill nr Wolverhampton as they would not deliver nationally and I have a friend who lives near there. Given their policy of only delivering short distances I expected their own van to turn up. But no it was Parcelforce who deliver nationally.

It opened on Friday, but the annoying thing is that the Base Seconds tent is £150 these days rather than the £40 or so it used to be a few years back.

Hi
Nothing wrong with Couriers, or Royal Mail...I use them a lot for getting imports over here (most goods here are fake...soon to be coming to the UK )...it's just Parcel-Farce...trust me, I know from the horse's mouth -ex-employees!

Hi
You don't work for The Parcel-demon????....do you????.... Anyway...any hints on shipping abroad with price and reliability would be appreciated...also some hints on freighting, and shipping of dangerous substances...almost anything is prohibited here....quite rightly...have you ever seen a Bulgarian in charge of a pot of paint????
