When I order something from Andertons or other large music shops, more often than not it is despatched the same day and arrives the next.
I placed an order with Thomann on Monday. All of the items are in stock, but today (Thursday) the order is still showing as: open - Not yet processed - Order will soon be commissioned and shipped.
Obviously it will take a few days to arrive once it has been despatched, but does anyone know why have my last few orders have taken so long to actually get processed and despatched?
I am wondering whether there's a logistics reason such as all UK orders get grouped together as a single shipment until they reach the UK, so they only despatch those orders on a certain day of the week.
I have sent them an enquiry and will report back if/when I get a reply.
