AMAZON...CRAP?????

Got a message from Amazon 4 days ago to say that my 21 Nights ( ordered the day they put it on sale!!!!) couldn't be sent until mid November.

Got on to the site tonite to find I could oredr it for 10 euros less for delivery this week!!!

Who knew?!!!

Seems a bit crap to me! But in the end works out better for me!

Why can't any effort that involves the purchase of a Prince-produced product be simple?

That's odd Eireboy - I ordered mine with Amazon UK after that (mid-Julyish) and got it here in Dublin on Monday.

If you ordered it through Amazon UK, check your order online - the price should have dropped to STG£13.50 + p&p as there was a price guarantee for price drops.

If you ordered through Amazon France, well, the whole consignment is probably in a warehouse waiting to be cleared. Someone has clearly tried to bribe thee customs officials with inferior cheese and wine.

Mine's took 2 days also-I guess we are really lucky. I live in Fort Worth and on the package it said it was shipped from Irving/Dallas Texas-I was really happy and satisfied with it. I heart it wink

What was the Price at "Borders?"

I saw the book in a book store today for 50 dollars.

I paid 35. at Target. It's worth the money to me. cool

You'll all be relieved to know that I received my copy this morning.

Sorry to shout out " the "emperor is naked" but the book is self-indulgent SHITE!!!

The cd is half interesting.
