I used this company for our Coleman airbeds earlier last year...
I was also quite suprised that they don't Email to confirm the order or tell you that it has been dispatched!!!
I did however recieve the goods pretty quickly if I remember rightly with a proper invoice etc in the package....

I suppose it is worrying when you don't hear anything as I must admit I was a bit dubious when I didn't recieve any correspondence from them... Lets hope it's just the weather causing the delay.....
I found there to be good prices on that site and BTW the store does exist as we have driven past it LOL

What did the answer machine say yaz?Give them a ring in the morning.They may have had a valid reason why they were'nt open today with the weather and all.If there's still no answer tomorrow i'd give trading standards a call just to see if they have had any complaints about them.Hope everything goes ok for you.

I used them last year (for £180 worth of goods), no communication but everything arrived fine. I guess this keeps costs down - they were certainly the cheapest I could find for what I wanted. I did wonder how much a quick despatch e-mail would cost - on the other hand I think all the e-mails from the big companies are automated and come as part of expensive e-commerce packages.

Hi

I have also put an order in with them due to the offers on their site it didnt appear to go through although i have received a confirmation email from them. I emailed them back explaining the difficulty i had but have not had a reply. Also came across Wayfarers which appears which they trade as... "The Camping Shop is the online presence of M Y Leisure Ltd t/a Wayfarers".

I havent used this particular company before but I know there are massive delays on post at the moment from christmas, the bad weather and the new year bank holidays etc .. I ordered a dvd box set from play.com and that was dispatched on the 2nd and Im still waiting for that
