dougal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Has anyone had contact with www.smart-distribution.co.uk ? I'm gassing for a modulus Flea, and wanted to see what the orice of a new bass is as opposed to a used one on sale in the for sale section. However, when I send e-mail to the address as advertised here: [url="http://www.smart-distribution.co.uk/page225/page225.html"]http://www.smart-distribution.co.uk/page225/page225.html[/url] - I get the following back. This isn't filling me with a great deal of confidence [font="Courier New"]Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently: [email protected] Technical details of permanent failure: Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 sorry, mail to that recipient is not accepted (#5.7.1) (state 14).[/font] Quote

RayFW Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Try again in a couple of hours. It looks like their mail server is borked. You could always give 'em a ring: 07767 370944 Quote

jmesa Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Prices are [url="http://smart-distribution.co.uk/page15/page16/page16.html"]on the site[/url] aren't they? Quote
dougal Posted February 2, 2009 Author Posted February 2, 2009 Yes, there are prices on the site, but does that include shipping / import tax / VAT etc. ? Give the exchange rate between £ & $ I expect that they're going to have gone up. Quote

wotnwhy Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) i've delt with smart in the past and found them to be top notch. i wouldn't worry about import charges or anything, they're in the UK. what you see is what you pay Edited February 2, 2009 by wotnwhy Quote
Beedster Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Isn't the stuff about Flea Basses on the site now significantly out of date (I believe Modulus don't call them Flea Basses any more)? Quote

My monitor is squint to where I sit most of the time and from that angle it looked like Hugh but straight on it's Ted fo' shizzle. Quote
SMART Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Hi Chris & all in this thread! Hope you are warm and well fed since we last saw each other. Spot on, I'm in the middle of updating the whole site including his Fleadom's section as it now the Funk Unlimited. Our website has a very large number of pages so please bear with me. Plus...we've been a bit bogged down with snow recently in Kent... Yes, as kindly mentioned above our prices include everything including UK mainland delivery, nothing else to pay! Regarding confidence...don't jump the gun too quickly. We're now in our 11th year of exclusivity with Modulus for the UK and Eire. Patience, a communication glitch is all it is...and as someone suggested above, you can also contact us on the 'ol phone! The world is not just the Net. Apologies to all as we just switched service providers after years with BT ...and I've been in Sweden and the Czech Republic this and last week and had limited Net availability which is for me highly unusual and not up to our normal service levels. If anyone over the next few days needs to mail me do it through the forum or until further notice use: [email protected] As the TV screen rarely says these days: 'normal service will be resumed shortly' Ciao Ian S.M.A.R.T Distribution PS Looks like I need to change my Avatar as well!!!

SMART Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Dear All Our emails are back online now, so again our apologies! New enquiries are welcome! Ciao Ian Quote
