Play.com

I have ordered a new 47" LCD Toshiba TV from Play.com. Does anyone know which courier they use to deliver the items? They normally use parcelforce for most items like that but they said they use a special courier for such items.

Re: Play.com

Do you have to pay VAT and import duty on purchases like these from play.com or do they pay it for you?

Re: Play.com

They usually have the tracking number and a link to the courier on the order page for the item.

Re: Play.com

I had a tracking number with mine. Just log into your Play.com account and look at your order history, it should be there.
