  1. Stuff like this makes me so mad. Suppose they won’t care if they find out it’s stolen… probably half their shop is full of moody gear.

  3. Amir bought a hipshot detuner from me and everything was perfect, great to deal with. Cheers, Ben.
  4. Ah no excuses not to try and make this one! Just moved to Warwick within the last few months and have wanted to go to one of these for a while!

  6. Same here on iPhone 11 Pro - Chrome sticks out like a sore thumb! 😬
  7. I really hope you find your bass and this scumbag doesn’t get away with ripping you off.
  8. Nope. I won’t see a sniff of my money until they’ve picked it up, sent it to their depot in the uk and then sent it back to Germany. It can take 14 working days for the bass to get back to them so I’ll be lucky if I get my money back before December.
  9. After alot of back and forth the useless lot at Thomann have told me a courier is coming tomorrow for the bass... Yeah right, I'll believe it when I see it. They've just been absolutely terrible to deal with, really unhelpful. Still not resolved a month later.
  10. 292 + 5 297! Who thought this system would work!
  11. If anyone wanted an update, still no good news. Was told by Thomann that a courier would be collecting my parcel on the 9th, no one turned up, no email or text from Thomann, no reply to my email, there has been nobody turn up today on the 10th and no contact or reply from Thomann. Tomorrow they’re getting both barrels and refunding me while I’m on the phone with them, they’re just being awful to deal with now and I don’t have the time to drag this out any further!
  12. TBF DHL go out of their way to promote this service to online businesses, but in practice it's really not working at all. https://www.dhl.com/gb-en/home/our-divisions/parcel/business-users/business-services/returns.html
  13. Well yes and no. They're both at fault. Thomann are using DHL's bottom tier of services for returns, for you to become a DHL UK Parcels vendor you need a click to pay card system installed in your premises that's it, you then scan the parcel, an email is then sent to DHL to come and pick the parcel up, you pop a sticker on the parcel box... you get 20p if and when DHL turn up. Now if you're DHL you're not going to drop everything and go and pick up 1 parcel, so you're bottom of the queue, forever it seems, when I went back to the shop to collect my parcel they showed me the room where they keep all the return parcels dropped off with them and there were hundreds, no word of lie, hundreds, no one from DHL had been there for weeks. Imagine DHL's system, I doubt they have a record of all 3500 return points and how many parcels each one has... and how long until the emails telling them to come and get the parcels are archived and forgotten about. Now this is when I think it is Thomanns responsibility to do more, I spent £500, got a shoddy product, I want that money back, Thomann want their stock back, Thomann are happy to wait an indefinite amount of time to have the parcel picked up at one of these DHL Parcel UK points, even when it is picked up, it then goes to a UK Thomann HUB and then forwarded back to Germany, they state at the hub "please expect up to 3 weeks for the parcel to leave and arrive in Germany", so at this point with doing the absolute bare minimum they're happy to wait possibly 8 weeks to get the bass back and only then issue a refund... I'm without a bass and the funds to buy a bass for 8 weeks, all for their inability to QC an outgoing product properly. After kicking off and refusing another DHL Parcels UK label (what on earth was that going to achieve) full fat proper DHL are coming to me this Wednesday... it's still possibly going to sit at the UK hub for 3 weeks mind... I'm going to stick to UK vendors moving forward, such a shame as I always had good things to say about them!
  14. Yeah it's a little worrying isn't it, I've bought many things from Thomann all visible on my account still and I've also bought a 5 String Sire in the past too without any problems! But this one got through the net! I'd really like to know the percentage of returns they get from the UK though, it's always a risk buying without playing etc, but as this has come direct from a manufacturer to distributor I'd have liked to have seen at least some of the problems addressed before it got to me... Maybe they tried... maybe they broke the neck screw
  15. Yeah on debit card, let’s see how this new pickup option works out! Never again though mate!
  16. @BigRedX My apologies for that really curt reply, I was going 10 rounds with Thomann at the same time, you didn't need that. So after not accepting any solution other than them coming to me they have given in and will be sending a courier to me next week, another one on the good pile, but I've had to fight over 2 hours for this!!
