Hi
Anyone had any dealings with trendz. I ordered some tyres a couple of weeks ago that according to their site was in stock. A couple of days later I received an email saying that there was a small delay because the item was out of stock but would be in within a couple of days. Next they said that a delivery was made but my tyres were not in the correct location in the warehouse but another delivery was due in. Yesterday I emailed to find out what was happening and they said they had been despatched. Today I received the standard, there is a small delay email again. I am sick of it now. I had ordered the tyres for using this week while off work and in good faith.

Should of gone to CRC :(

    In my experience Tredz have been fine with quick delivery. I think you have just been very unlucky and they have advised what is happening. It is very frustrating to order something for a week off and it not to arrive on time.

    They are way down my list of preferred retailers as you can't rely on them actually having the items in stock, last year I placed a few orders with them and 50% of the time they would ring a couple of days later saying items were out of stock, I've never had the same problems with any of the other main online stores.

    Yes, it's bad business saying things are in stock. Only went with them as I had a fiver off code :( that will teach me.
