I ordered anodes 9 days ago, nothing special a Volvo Saildrive. No idea when they will arrive. I'm currently in my account, I can't see a tracking service. Today, my boat's now on the hard and it's costing. Is this the service that is a receiving a 4.9 rating!!? They should indicate a delivery time, so we can plan maintenance. I was expecting the fast delivery, indicated on the website. Just in case I allowed for 9 days. I've just email requested some indication of delivery, let's see what happens. Disappointing!

Hi Colin, I'm sorry that your order hasn't arrived in good time. This was caused by a change in part number causing an issue with our dispatch. Your order was dispatched to you today for delivery tomorrow, and you will have now received a tracking number with a one hour timeslot. Please accept our apologies for this delay, we have reviewed our system to ensure this doesn't happen again. Kind regards, David - Store Manager

Hi Nick, We're sorry to hear about your order not arriving on time. Upon further investigation, I can see that unfortunately, our supplier let us down with this one. We were incorrectly informed that your shoes were in stock, but later found out they were not. We have since contacted you with alternative options and an expected delivery date of your original order. Please do not hesitate to get in touch with any further questions. Kind regards, Nathan

Poor so far. I placed my order for what was advertised as being in stock on the 17th August 2022. It’s now 2nd September and I’m still waiting for delivery. Zero communication.

Good afternoon Claire, Apologies you have not received your order. Unfortunately, we were not made aware by our supplier of a delay in getting the order to you. This delay has now been resolved and we expect the order to be with you by the end of the week.

Good afternoon Graham, There appears to have been some miscommunication here, which we can only apologise for. Once we learned of your missing parcel, we immediately ordered a replacement from our supplier to fulfil your order and confirmed this via email. This should have arrived with us last week, but unfortunately, our supplier has since informed us of a further delay. We have tried calling you today and have responded to your emails as soon as possible to ensure your order is resolved. Please accept our apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and are working hard to resolve this in a swift and timely manner. ^Nathan - Manager

Delivary was 4 plus days late leaving me to canceling my lift back into the harbour and purchasing the same item again from a different chandler to get it in time for launch . Delivary charge was refunded by you but the hassle and inconvience on me and the yard will mean i will never use pirates cave again and would not recommend to anyone in my marina either . Extremely poor performance on delivary .

We're truly sorry about this. Whilst we shipped your order within our timeframes, our delivery partner, DHL, caused delays as a result of a problem within their network - hence why we made a delivery charge refund to you. As can be seen from other reviews - our speed of delivery is usually something that people provide positive feedback for, so it's very disappointing to us that this has occurred with your order. Sometimes these things are just out of our control, but we do accept responsibility and can only apologise. As a small business, your feedback is of course the last thing we want to hear.

We are sorry to hear that your order had not arrived, and after your message we contacted you straight away to investigate the issue with our couriers and suppliers to resolve straight away. We resolved the situation the same day and the order has since arrived. We always do our very best with our customer service, we do apologise for any inconvenience this caused.

You delivered a 230 Lite-Seago dingy when the order and Invoice stated 250 Lite-Seago dingy. After speaking to a member of your staff I then decided to keep the 230 lite-Seago as the lady I spoke too said she would credit me with £200, but I only received £80 credit. You had the price for the 230 lite-Seago at an incorrect price on your site BUT WHAT I CANNOT UNDERSTAND is why the lady didn't telephone me to explain what had happened and to at least apologise.

I have been asked to review an item i have not received. So I have not had a notification that my order has been sent, despite having paid for it over a week ago. I did phone 2 days ago and was told that it was sent that very day, no email confirmation or tracking details have been received. So as far as service goes I have paid for something I have not received over a week later, very poor.

Good afternoon. I’m so very sorry for the delay on your order. There are no excuses but to say that we have been waiting on these shroud covers to come into stock - everything seems to be slower inbound at the moment. The order was shipped with DHL for next day delivery as confirmed when you called and your details provided for full tracking information. We do apologise for the delay incurred in your order - this is not usual practice for us.

Item arrived. Price blocked out so scraped off. Item was £5:00 more expensive using your internet service than if bought in shop.

Failed to deliver as promised. Big apology but that didn't help. Had to cancel the order and buy elsewhere.

They accepted my order and took my money. Phoned the next day to tell me that they had run out and the price had gone up £100. I suspect that a contract had been made and that I could have insisted that they supply the goods but I used a bigger company that I have been a customer of for some time and who were £10 more expensive so went to them. It is worth the extra to deal with a company that I can trust.

Dear Mr Luscombe, We are terribly sorry for this error and any inconvenience caused. As you know, you placed your order online on a Saturday and upon realising the error you were contacted and refunded in full straight away on Monday morning. It is regrettable and unfortunate that we had a limited stock of these items at a special price, with the last of the stock being sold during the weekend, prior to your order being placed. As can be seen in our other reviews, this is not how we usually operate and we are truly sorry that this was your experience. Yours sincerely, Pirates Cave Chandlery

I have missed doing work on the boat because have to stay in all day because you wanted a signature on the delivery. If you respected my wishes to leave by the back door then it should have been obvious that I wanted del;ivery without extra formality.

Once again, please accept our apologies for this mix up. The delivery was attempted the day after you placed your order, but unfortunately the courier didn't leave the parcel without obtaining a signature. By way of apology and as a gesture of goodwill we have already refunded your postage cost.
