Retailer Reviews Forum - printer cartridges/refill kits from box-shift - Page 1

Anyone had experience of ordering -- and getting delivery!! -- of printer cartridge refill kits from box-shift.co.uk.
I ordered a straight forward refill kit on 28th Oct.(their site said 'same day despatch with delivery 2/3 days later); they quickly acknowledged my order.
Sent email chasers on 6th and 9th Nov. No response to either.
Used the good old landline today... "sorry sir we've been extremely busy,, etc., etc.,.. blah-blah...
If they're any good then they should expect to be busy.
They have promised to get it off today....Did their blurb mean 2/3 weeks delivery?
Watch this space..

True to their word, they must have despatched it on the 12th because it arrived this morning, but even so they are flannelling -- they marked the paperwork "re-send".
But at least the cartridge re-fill kits (black and CMY) seem to have worked O.K.......

Thanks Clayts, for your info.
Have looked at Choice site and their prices seem a tad more expensive for the item I bought, i.e. black & colour 'starter' re-fill kit @ £14.99 against £12.90, both incl.vat & del'y and both companies offering same-day-despatch.
yer pays yer money, yer makes yer choice..
