This topic needs its own thread immediately if you would be so kind!

[Funky Dunky]

I made my purchase on the 8th and have received no such emailery as yet. Mayhap I have been hoodwinked.

I have received my confirmation email. I am confident that an unsolicited clip-on furry animal tail (with realistic swishing action) will be arriving forthwith.

[Funky Dunky]

Ah, but squire, I referreth unto the attachable tuning device for the headstock of mine lute.

[discreet]

I got a mail on the 8th too, telling me my tuner has been shipped. Tuner in the singular, even though I ordered three...

[Funky Dunky]

I ordered two, at separate times. No emails from Reverb yet but I've had confirmation from PayPal that my orders were processed.

I logged into my Reverb account, and, reassuringly, there are two separate transactions, both in My Orders, and both are showing as being In Transit along with a DHL tracking number for each - but, in typical DHL form (like my last bass from Thomann) these numbers appear not to be recognised by the DHL tracker. I hate DHL more than you. I hate DHL more than anything.

[Funky Dunky]

I also have Feedback from Reverb (Feedback? Reverb? Ho ho! Musician jokes aplenty!) for both orders, saying what a jolly good boy am I for paying immediately. They also asked if I would kindly leave them feedback. Oh no ye don't - you'll get hee-haw feedback until I receive my two tuners, laddie!

Do you know, I spotted that as I was posting it and thought "someone witty will jump all over that and treat it as a dangling modifier." And then I thought "Nah, it'll be fine, nobody would do that".

I should've listened to my gut! The one time it said something other than "put food in me"!

Surely you must know by now? If there's a dangling modifier about, I'll jump all over it...

I'm in the hole for six quid! The stakeholders will be furious!
[/quote]I amor could be jealous. Just paid £10 for a Guitarman. It is accurate for four string, according to both my pedal tuner and the Peterson Strobe Tuner on the phone. Sorely tempted to try one of these though.

This is beginniong to look like one of those "Its only a pound" (but you never receive the goods) scams where if enough people buy the scammer makes off with a tidy walletful leaving the innocent punters high and dry.
So - torches and pitchforks at the ready, guys? Reverb offices here we come!

[Maude]

I paid through PayPal so I'll just claim it back.
Haven't had any email from them.

[mr zed]

I've had emails and a tracking notification. They're on their way guys. Shipped on the 9th from Chicago.

[Funky Dunky]

Chicago? Dang. Be a couple of weeks before we see them. Oh well! Only two dorra!

[MacDaddy]

We'll all probably get stung with a customs charge. [size=4] [/size]

[Funky Dunky]

Only £2, but a tenner customs charge!

[mr zed]

In that case I'm gonna send mine back to that same old place, sweet home Chicago!

[Geek99]

Items have to have a declared worth over £15 to see a customs charge, I thought ?

[Funky Dunky]

Anyone had any luck using the DHL tracker?

[Les]

Yea the tracking number works, says it's at the DHL ecommerce centre in Illinois

[Geek99]

It doesn't arrive then I complain to Paypal and get a refund
International shipping isn't instant so patience is needed
