Planet-X-Bikes Rant

[Mackie]

Let me tell you my story about planet-X-Bikes.

So I order a book and seat clamp two weeks ago, pay for the order, then I get a mail that the clamp is out of stock they will do a refund, but I tell Jo-anne to rather send me the On-One saddle instead.

So I get the notification in my Post box, and this is where things take a nasty turn.

My mother in law collects the post and hands the collection slip to my wife and asks what the hell is your husband bloody expecting from PlanetX ? Cos is does not say Planet-X-Bikes just Planet-X, wife now says: "Hey what the sh*t is this sh*t?" So I explain and haha was had by all.

Now I realise if my mother in law and wife thought this is dodgey well what will happen when I collect, off I go and I see Debbie Botha the Tannie at the Post Office, an old, very conservative afrikaans Tannie, she snatches the slip from me, knowing who I am and what parcel has arrived, she storms out back, goes to collect the parcel,and behold: The bleeding tag is half covered by the Post Office sticker and where does it cut the letterhead off? Yup, you guessed it, it cut off the "bikes" bit of the delivery letter head, but that is not the worst, it's a Saddle!!! Not In a box, and Tannie Debbie is clutching the damn thing by the "nose" of the saddle with the "wings" flaring out the back of the bag, It felt like a huge big ol todger!!!!

Hectic looks later and a not impressed Tannie Debbie, thinking that I received some huge piece of man meat from Planet-X.

So Kiwi et al at Planet-X-Bikes please dudes , make some changes to the postage parcles, I don't think Debbie and the Post Office can handle another one of these parcels, and my wife, mother in law and reputation might not be so lucky next time.

But on a serious note to Planet-X-Bikes, Jo-anne, your service as always was impecceble, well communicated and handled the out of stock situation perfectly, i look forward to the next order.

You guys must have heard the prank whackhead pulled on the mother with the kid in school and show and tell, making it seem as if he brought her Buzzing apparatus to school, that was hilarious !
