Ah, ah, fair comments, it’s not the end of the world indeed, to try and emulate the binary reactions to my (admitedly a bit puerile) post.
Just very annoying when there seems to be a significant drop in service levels of late at CRC confirmed here and within my riding group.
I am off on holiday Sat AM 6.00 so I don’t particularly want my stuff, including a frame, to be out in the world of logistics for a week, hence, logically, paying for next day guaranteed (in CRC’s words) delivery. I even allowed for a buffer day (today).
It is CRC’s fault/responsibility as my contract is with them, not PF.
Refunding the £5 is a given but that really doesn’t solve the issue.
