So, Komplett have finally opened their collections depot and surprisingly they are implementing a charge for you to pick up your stuff, so it looks like victory goes to
elara. Full press release below.
From Komplett.ie
Komplett.ie is proud to announce that we have today, October 1st 2008, opened our Pick Up Point in Dublin 15 for business. When placing an order you will now have the option to choose Pick Up Point as the delivery method once you get to the payment screen, under delivery options. The cost of Pick Up is lower than any other method of delivery on any items, but you will really notice the difference when ordering large items such as TV’s – the price of delivering items under 10kg in weight is now €8 and over 10kg is €13.
This compares to An Post €13 for sub 10kg, and prices pushing up to and beyond €100 for big items such as TV’s depending on carrier. So we’re very happy that we can now make big deliveries a lot cheaper for you, and quicker too – if an item is ordered before 1pm it will be delivered 2 days later, which is quicker than An Post and DHL in many instances!
The Pick Up Point is located just past the Blanchardstown Shopping Centre / Blanchardstown Bypass (which connects to the M50) in Blanchardstown Corporate Park 2 – A helpful tip is to look out for the Texaco petrol station directly across the road from the entrance to the park. (Drive in the gate past the security post and take a left, not a right! And yes, we’re currently looking at signposting the route with Fingal County Council.) Full details can be found
here and maps
here.
Please do note that we do not sell stock directly in the Pick Up Point, it must be ordered online; and while we will be accepting payment in the Pick Up Point in a few weeks, for the moment you must pre-pay online as usual. We do not and will not accept cash in the Pick Up Point, but we will be accepting Laser and Visa debit cards when we begin accepting payment at the Pick Up Point itself.
You may also drop back RMA’s, as the returns department lives in the same building as the Pick Up Point. Please do note that you have to have an RMA number issued through the regular customer service lines (email and phone) before we can accept it in the Pick Up Point.
