whistler1 26 Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Got myself of to the postie for it opening yesterday.So as to get my R10 of to Addi at amcustomairguns sharpish. Was asked if i would like to send it parcel force for £14 odds,said no RMSD for £21.50.So as it gets thair for today before 1pm.What a bloody waist of time and extra money that was.Spoke to Addi & Mandy earlier.Gun has not turned up yet : Thair tracking site says its still in the delivery system. Even though parcel force are not ment to carry guns,and you are not covered by any insurance.It would probably be thair by now if i used them. By 1pm tomorow i shall be thinking the worse.Some bloody postie has had it off with my gun Brian Quote Link to post

half n' half 8 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 there should be a phone number on the reciept you get when you sent it or go on the RM website www.royalmail.com and go from there. quote the tracking number off the reciept,they check that it was late and within a week or two you'll recieve a cheque for the amount you paid.

whistler1 26 Posted July 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Realy beginning to get worried now. Still not been delivered Tracking says its still in transit...could have peddled down with it by now. Quote Link to post
Marksman 934 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Same happened to me when I sold my 97k and posted it to Wales. The kid had to collect it from the post office. I launched a claim explaining the contents of the package hence the reason for the special delivery and I was refunded £25.... The £21.50 got the delivery and £3.50 for my trouble...... Generous eh!! Now when I use RMSD I always tell the post office my previous experience and have had no problems since Darryl Quote Link to post
whistler1 26 Posted July 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Called royal mail.Gun was refused for flight,probably because it is compressed air.Thats a first for me.Sent back to delivery office to go by road.Is in the Newark delivery office and should be going out this morning.Fingers crossed Brian Quote Link to post
Night Hunter 109 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 At least they know where it is mate,I thought that if you emptied the air bottles before posting that it was fine to fly. Quote Link to post

Marksman 934 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 I still say you have grounds for a legitimate claim Quote Link to post
whistler1 26 Posted July 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 I still say you have grounds for a legitimate claim Think compressed air is on thair restriction list,for flying No harm in picking up a p58 form and chancing my luck,once the gun is delivered. Brian Quote Link to post
