Anybody have an experience of orders of hard to get goods/low availability “going missing” when they have landed in Dublin. Both Amazon orders. Last one was refunded no bother but strange. Not high value.
The 1930s were great all the same. Peggy’s leg, jeyes fluid, pints of Guinness, buckets and spades, and @Ambrose_McNulty’s subscription to the Saint Martin magazine
I was more of a Messenger man myself.
I’d say you were both, otherwise how would you even be able to compare and contrast
You can’t be both, you need to pick your cult and back it all the way. Was there every a chemical mixture to match Jeyes fluid? Could clear maggots off a hogget, clear drains or loosen a rusted bolt.

If you subscribe to reality you can do whatever the fuck you want as regards the other two
Anyone ever returned something through UPS? Their nearest drop off point is in Finglas apparently. A quick online search says to ring them and the driver will collect it from your house which seems very OTT and the opposite of what you get from the likes of DPD. Anyone?
Yeah. I did it before. Nudie Jeans use that service. Worked fine. You get a time and they collect it.

Seems a world away from DPD fucking your parcels over the wall in the rain
Chalk and cheese. I received a delivery from them recently. The tracking was spot on. Also I was not home and was afraid they would leave it there like other companies have started to do during pandemic but they were back the next day.
Last package I got from UPS tracked as delivered. I rang up and it turns out they delivered to a place in deansgrange and even the wrong number house. In fairness, they sent the driver back out the next day to retrieve and deliver my package

Whatever about getting a package delivered, getting one picked up is an absolute disaster. Waiting around all day for some lad to call. Whole day gone, gone gone…
He arrived on this afternoon. Couldn’t take the package because it hadn’t got a barcode printed on it. I was never given a barcode, just an address. He says “If I can’t scan it, I can’t take it” and off with him again.

The neighbour at home found a package for the sister in the middle Of his lawn. Checked back the cctv and your man just pulled up and fucked it over the wall 
Both houses were occupied at the time
Do ye have parcel collection points in Ireland? Loads of them here, like banks of lockers. At filling stations or supermarket car parks. You pick the most convenient collection point, the courier drops it, they send you a pin code on your phone to unlock it and the job is oxo.
We do but we prefer the personal touch of ignorance you get from a lad fonging your precious gifts in over the hedge

Superb use of an oft forgotten nugget : fonging. Most recent audio version was last summer as a fellow rustic encouraged one of our heroes to " Fong it in you useless fucker".
Despite having it fonged in their direction, the front 3 were out of sorts all day.

The DPD driver here is sound. He rang us one day with a package that he suspected was a Santa present cos of the picture on it, asking if we wanted it left somewhere different that the kids wouldn’t see when we got home. Another lad would have just fucked it against the wall

Our DPD driver rings all the bells on the building regardless of what flat no is on the package
