Default Re: Disturbing e-mail from amazon.co.uk

I think the service from Highstakes is excellent. The orders are always sent the next working day if the books are in stock, so there is very little wait between ordering time and delivery, and they are always happy to stay open a little later if customers want to pop in and have a look around.

However, I am sticking with Amazon.uk on this purchase because,

A) i havent had any problems previously with orders through them. (including pre-orders, and i have faith that Mason will make sure the books are sent out to the suppliers asap, unlike other publishers!)

B) i am in no rush at the moment for PNL & the SNG book as i have other books i am reading through first, so it isnt costing me anything in missed reading time.

C) I play mainly limit online, and barely play no limit as my standard is poor, therefore waiting a little bit longer isnt going to cost me anything at the tables! (especially given that my opponents are unlikely to either have read it or understood it completely either).

D) I paid for the books using a free voucher earned as part of a cleared bonus!! which along with the free delivery means that i am happy to wait a bit longer if i have too, because it's not costing me anything!!

and finally....

E) Given how many people are threatening to drop amazon and go through other sources, it makes it all the more possible i will move up through the pecking order for deliveries!!, recieving it quicker than the new expected date given by Amazon...and the other sources will suffer a supply crunch!!

Regardless of how and when we get our copies, i am sure we will all think it worthwhile [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
