So what your saying is they should have had slow delivery since the beginning and then you would be happy?

You don't want to be told that the problem is your expectations, right? ๐Ÿ™‚

Last set of tyres I had from them came via p[arcel force rather than roayl amil. They've always been a bit slower.

Order tyres Thursday, arrived yesterday. Maybe you are on their fast delivery blacklist.

or perhaps CRC have to rely on RM/Parcel Force. Once it's left their warehouse there's not much they can do is there ๐Ÿ™„

Ordered some brakes at 22.00 on Wednesday, I recieved an email informing me that the order had been despatched at 08.35 Thurday morning, pretty quick eh. Unfortunately the did not arrive at work on Friday as expected, I will now have to wait until Monday before I get to play with them.

CRC - good
Royal Mail - not so good

If you look at your invoice it will say Parceforce delivery for tires. ParcelForce don't deliver on Saturdays unless you pay the massive premium.

The good old days for CRC as I recall was oe shimano stuff that came in plastic bags and was always a lot cheaper than anywhere else. This is going back maybe 8 or more years though.
