    Pretty good Play. Ordered something at 5:30pm the once, and it dropped through the letter box the next morning.

    Still, for my last order, they got done by DVD.co.uk

    Play wanted £47 for the first series of the Sopranos boxed set, and it was out of stock.

    DVD.co.uk £32.99 and in stock. Watching it now. Quality.

    I'd say Friday, Play are normally very good with deliveries, I got all of my deliveries in less than a week (about three or four days)

    I've had very good service from play and i've had my very bad experience with them. No-one can be perfect. Talking of deliveries, i ordered 2 DVD's from them yesterday. If they arrive today I won't be surprised 'cause i live on the rock next to them.

    Yeah, It usually takes 2-3 days for what ever I order... which aint bad.

    But sometimes you can find better prices else where

    With a high enough turnover to provide a fast delivery service and enough staff to meet the demands of their customers....


    Or at least they should be doing this?

    I've always had good delivery time from them.
    The only problem I had was when some pikey half inched it....they sent a replacement out no worries.

    Play delivery should be good. The Jersey Post Internet companies thing-ma-bob, just won a world wide award for service or something.
