Orders placed Friday teatime with CRC, Wiggle and On One. I have just received the first parcel.
Sensational prize for anyone correctly predicting the correct order...
I bet on-one were first. Then wiggle and CRC depending on the courier they used.
Is there a prize for the first person to explain the difference between anecdote and data, too ?
On-one, CRC then Wiggle.
If you explain it, I will send you a prize.
Wiggle, CRC, still waiting for OnOne?
I reckon it was any one of the three,what do I win............
CRC, Wiggle, OnOne?
(Always found CRC to be rapid in my experience!)
An anecdote, in this context, is an account of a personal experience.
Presumably, in this example, to infer that the mail order service of one retailer is better than the others.
Data, would be to place a large number of orders with each retailer and record the average delivery time.
What have I won, and more importantly, how long will it take to arrive ?
Wiggle, CRC, On-One.
Presumably, in this example, to infer that the mail order service of one retailer is better than the others.
Not really. To be honest, I'm amazed that anything has been shipped - let alone arrived. It was after office hours on Friday, so I figured they would be processed (at best) this morning.
To further complicate matters, the orders were for differing levels of complexity...this is just a bit of Monday morning fun.
(there is a really good prize though)
OK then, I'll go for CRC, On One, Wiggle as I think that's the only permutation not already taken.
No, hang on.
Wiggle, CRC, On-One has been done twice.
Can I have Wiggle, On One, CRC as well.
There's nothing in the rules about one entry per customer. ๐
CRC arrived, On-One out of stock, the postman nicked the Wiggle one.
postman nicked the wiggle parcel - same thing happened to me!
On-one first
CRC second (in a massive box)
Wiggle parcel damaged so not delivered
On One (but the delivered some one elses bike that was in for warranty)
Wiggle
CRC
I need clarification of the rules. Does the first Wiggle package to arrive count or does it not count until you have returned the incorrect item and received the correct one?

Nothing arrived, all stucked coz of other xmas parcels. wiggle got nicked bcoz packaging looks nice and looks expensive.. On one..out of stock .. But you expect delivery anywys..crc goin to be stucked for at least 30 days.. And when it arrives . Its a wrong size or color or completely different item at all.. And its for women ๐
Is this the right place to mention that Superstar have been consistently the fastest online shop I've used, for ages? No?
On-one either first or last, depending on whether or not they had it in stock. CRC in the middle. And Wiggle never, because who shops at Wiggle these days?
CRC will be first, on-one and wiggle will arrive together the following day
Where are Tredz on this delivery timescale continuum?
Hah. For me, Tredz are- tell you it's in stock, never post it. Give you a refund. Then suddenly charge your card again in 3 months and send you the item.
my money would still be on Merlin first
Well, still only 1 parcel here. Out of the other two, one of them showing as not processed, one of them showing as processed.
We can play again tomorrow.
UPDATE:
Box no. 2 just came.
So.... What's the answer ๐
Winstanleys order last week. ParcelFarce seem to have delivered it to some randoms four doors down from me. 50/50 I'll be able to get it.
Oh yeah...
Although I am waiting for the most exciting box (containing the bike)...
