Really is best to order direct. Because of the nature of the product, a bookazine most wh smiths only get such deliveries on a friday. So “should” be in this Friday.

valleymodeller Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 WH Smith in Cardiff only had Issue 3 the other day. I've ordered the last two direct from Kelsey. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

18B Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 (edited) Noticed on sale this morning in Matlock, they had eight copies last week, but only one damaged copy left now. If you can’t see it on the shelf in smiths etc, always worth asking if they’ll be getting any more In. Edited February 8, 2019 by 18B Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Kazmierczak Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Ordered a copy from the publisher early last week. No sign of said publication yet, though they've taken the ££ out of my account.

No delivery yet, so perhaps the publisher is prioritising distribution to the trade rather than individuals? Has anyone received a copy through the post?

Peter Kazmierczak Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 If that's the case Steve, I'd say it was very poor show by the publisher. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

18B Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 evening, It appears there is a delay with sending out the issue to individual purchasers. The publication date however was only in February and it couldn't have been sent any earlier as it hadn't gone to the printers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Griffin Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Ordered from the publisher over a week ago and after publication date. still nothing. The series of books is very very good, sadly let down very badly by Kelsey publishing. They seem to prioritise double bagging old 'moving the goods' and filling shelves with them than the new publications. poor show really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
'CHARD Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Ordered Issues 3 and (un-numbered) 4 (NER) from Kelsey on line last Thursday and they came the following day, so they're certainly not all bad - just rather hit and miss.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am partly responsible for that; When I couldn't find On Shed 5 in WHS on Saturday I was instead seduced into buying a double pack of Moving the Goods 9 and 10.

RMweb Premium Banger Blue Posted February 11, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) I ordered #5 (also preordered #6 & #7) last Tuesday night, no sign of #5 in the post yet but no surprise given the following is mentioned in the confirmation email from Kelsey: Quote Please note, if you have ordered a magazine back issue, a book, or a bookazine, your order should be with you within 5-10 working days. If you’ve ordered any other product, including calendars, please allow up to 28 days for delivery. ‘So basically it should arrive sometime between tomorrow and next Tuesday. Not going to lose any sleep over it! p.s I ordered #3 & #4 direct previously and both occasions delivery was around the week mark.

Dan Griffin Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 All, Just a quick update. I contact Kelsey today and enquired about my order. The lady on the phone was very polite and said that there had been a delay in the warehouse dispatch, which she apologised for, and said the bookazine should be with me with 5 days. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
caradoc Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 There's good news and bad news; Good news, I got my copy of On Shed 5 from WHS Glasgow Argyle St today. Bad news, it appeared to be the last copy on the shelves ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
valleymodeller Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 There were about 4 copies in my local WH Smith today but no delivery from Kelsey. I trust the comments above will ensure mine arrives safely. I was tempted to buy the one in WH Smith but resisted, but had a quick peek inside and it looks like another gem of an issue. tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
