I'm waiting for an Evri delivery, this does not bode well...

Not true.

I bought a bass from a seller in Wales around the first RM strikes last year. Put into the system on Saturday, due to be posted on Monday, due for delivery on Thursday (even allowing for the 48 hour strike), didn't arrive till the following Wednesday (despite reassurances that it would "definitely" arrive on Monday").

Even though RM agreed to refund because of them not meeting the 48 delivery commitment, as I'd booked through Interparcel (third party) I couldn't claim because of their small print.

Last time they'll get any money from me.

Hope your delivery arrives "soon"

Now if I hadn't been pessimistic.... but as it is I was and so a very nice young Evriman turned up Friday lunchtime with my sax.  In one piece, despite the vendor assuming bin liners wrapped around the sax in its thin cheap case would be adequate protection from gravity and malice.  And remarkably, a single address label which barely stuck to said black plastic and finally fell off as Evriman handed me the parcel.  Somedays life is against me, sometimes not.
