So Amazon screwed up and didn't deliver yesterday, I've ordered a similar product on there that was actually considerably cheaper.

Pepperoni Pizza and a Latte coffee at the Odeon, then 3 Lottery tickets and a copy of TV Choice, then an Aero bar.

Well those Bat wings I ordered on Amazon yesterday, they look cool but they won't fit my American Footballer style broad shoulders, fortunately I think I still have some black string I bought from Hobbycraft last week, to alter the ties.

I just bought that Bat costume again that I bought on Amazon last week, only this time, to be delivered to Mum and Dad's tomorrow.

Instead of the annoyingly incompetent delivery guy claiming it's in the blue bin when it isn't when I get back to the Flat.

I've just bought a similar black Spandex Bat costume on eBay, it's Spandex so it's stretchy lol.

I had the opposite, they took more than they should. then "credited me" after months of arguing.

Yeah these companies are great at taking money off you, not so hot at giving it back.

Back when I was on Virgin Mobile a few years ago, I had many a battle over the phone with their annoyingly annoying customer service clowns, I speak English in a Sheffield accent and they didn't understand me! I freely admit I have no patience but this would annoy a Saint.
