Well, i think you where rightly so, entitled to complain, if they
claim a defined delivery time they should be obliged to that.

But i still, cant understand the 250ukp policy?
What purpose on earth can that serve if the customer
either pre pays by bank transfer, credit card or have
a 30 day account etc? It's just components they sell!

We do know UK banks hare paranoid about money laundry
but does that just apply to French folks? :)

Scandinavians do laundry to as far as i know,
particularely in Isle of Man! And thats a fact!
