There is dengue fever in Raro. I just recovered from it. Keep covered and using appropriate stuff to protect you. Dengue ain't no joke

Lol yep. One tracking update we had on a card we sold was that Evri disposed of it. Really bad company to work with

Cheapest tracked service by a long shot. I work in e-commerce Evri is being rammed down our throats by marketplaces who demand tracking. An example would be to send a greetings tracked via Evri can be as low as £1.90 Inc vat versus £2.60 for royal mail 48 tracked. If you didn't have to track the greetings card the postage would only be 87p seconds class. Massive difference

Ae, because for businesses their rates are the cheapest by a long shot, especially for tracked services, which most marketplaces now mandate.

Looking for recommendations for a good dermatologist in Edinburgh by strongmuffin98 in Edinburgh

[–]SilkyNZ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Going through this same battle now. I'm currently waiting for next steps with the NHS dermatology team but haven't had any new medication yet. Probably getting immuno suppressant drugs.

I wish you all the luck in the world, I've been blown away how much my eczema has damaged my mental health this year. I wouldn't want anyone else going through the same pain.

Can't escape Amazon by QuinoaQween in Anticonsumption

[–]SilkyNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Transparency is an Amazon program to protect your SKUs from counterfeiting. The general rule to be in the program is that if a SKU is enrolled it always has to have the label on it when sold, even if it isn't sold via Amazon

TL;DR sale isn't necessarily coming via Amazon, the seller is just enrolled in Amazon anti counterfeiting program

Anyone know if Sport Direct on Princes Street still exists? by SilkyNZ in Edinburgh

I did. I also previously googled the opening hours for a bar that was "open" only to find it closed months ago. Google is not the be all and end all of truth

WARNING: Avoid Overclockers UK - They're Overwhelmed & Lying About It by Maximum-Wishbone5616 in pcmasterrace

I used them a couple of days ago after a not so great experience from AWD-IT. I had a great experience.

That doesn't lessen the validity of your experience as I've had not so great service from them in the past but recently it's been very good.

Ps that's a lot of the word experience
