mint Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Does this mean that it's delivered to you FOC?Seems too good to be true so I'm just asking.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachapapa Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Some on line stores allow you to collect items at their stores outlets at reduced charge compared with sending by postal or other delivery, their are several in Paris, others in Marseille.But your option means that YOU collect at no charge.

mint Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Gee, Pacha, knew there'd be strings!No such thing as a free lunch, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachapapa Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Pixmania is an example of paying Chez Pixmania when you collect.Les frais de service que vous payez lors d'un achat en magasin correspondent d'une part au transport de vos produits depuis notre plate-forme logistique mais aussi à des frais de gestion de commande et de structure.Ces frais vous seront indiqués après sélection de votre produit, juste avant la page d’identification.A popular "arnaque" on ebay where gratuite is not included and the vendor charges € 20 or whatever.

Chancer Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 If you are talking about Ebay or Leboncoin it means that the seller very generously will not be charging you one penny extra for you to have the priveledge of collecting your purchase in person [:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chancer Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 That will teach me for making a joke, I have just bought something from E-bay, its £10 delivery which is OK but as I have bought several and will be in the area I would prefer to collect, the seller wants £9 for me to collect from him [:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allanb Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 [quote user="Chancer"]…the seller wants £9 for me to collect from him…[/quote]Maybe it's a special offer. He normally charges £18 but he's giving you 50% off. Don't miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chancer Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I am not broke Norman but certainly have to be very carefull, the items are nails and fuel cells for a Paslode nailer and they are for a French friend, me I wouldnt pay a lot more for something that I am quite capable of knocking in with a hammer!Eventually the seller agreed to group the postage so we are getting 4 boxes of 2000 nails plus fuel cells which is a very heavy parcel for £73 all in inc delivery.One box alone costs €80 in France and they want €20 delivery per box [:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pachapapa Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Be careful of an invitation to buy with " remise en mains propre" and a small bit in the contract discretely noting a charge; if you accept the deal you can be legally held in contractual terms to paying the "delivery charge".P.S Is a Paslode one of those things that will take a cat out at 30 yards?[:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
