  • The Ikea website.

    What's in stock, what isn't in stock, when it can be delivered, what delivery will cost, where you can collect from, all appear to be arbitrary from one minute to the next.

    Over the course of an order my delivery has ranged from £3 to £50 with delivery dates ranging from tomorrow to April. Or I could collect it from my local store, but at some point it decided that I could only collect from Swindon. Then, to finish, it decided a load of stuff was out of stock anyway.

    I know that if I try again tomorrow it will give me a totally different array of options.

  • Maybe they are using just out of time systems

  • This. I wanted some bathroom stuff, but mainly a cabinet. The cabinet is not in stock in Croydon, something I can't find out until I'm nearly checked out. I could pay £5 for the privilege of driving to Greenwich, but fuck that. Take the cabinet out and leave the small bits. Now I have to pay to collect those from Croydon. Fuck off.
