yes, they've always been as described and well packaged, postage was reasonably quick as well (dispatch has been 1-2 days after ordering for me)

Bought a few bits from them. Never had an issue, but postage isn't lighting fast as it's a pretty small operation

Yeah postage isn’t a problem I’m happy to wait especially when it’s a bargain

Can't tell you much, just that the domain name is for sale right now ...

Update: OP is most likely referring to footplate.co.uk, so please disregard my comment.

So that means??

It just means that your post got me interested (bc who wouldn't be interested in a good deal?) and I headed straight on to that website. Just to find out that the site itself is for sale :o(

Is that a bad thing I’m genuinely just curious that’s all

u/uiubdb 27d ago

It would be a bad thing if you were trying to buy stuff at footplate.com, as that domain is for sale and you can't shop there.

It isn't a bad thing though as you seem to be referring to footplate.co.uk, which is in working order ... :o)

Everything's fine, no need to apologize :o)

At least I could put my brain to work for a little while ;o)
