| It's Bethany's birthday on Sunday and one of her presents is an outside playhouse. It was delivered today from Argos and we have just gone to assemble it so it's ready for Sunday (was going to hide it in the spare bedroom) and it's broken!!!!!! There are lots of cracks on it and pieces snapped off in the box. Have just tried to ring Argos to give them down the banks and it let me go through all the different options pressing this number and that number before telling me they close at 8pm. At least they are open tomorrow at 8am, I will be on the phone first thing to try and demand a replacement is delivered tomorrow!! Grrrrrrrrrrrr Rant over!! |

| That's the thing that has annoyed me the most as I was imagining her face when she saw it on Sunday morning so I'm gonna try my best to get it delivered tomorrow afternoon. |

| Thats is so bad!
I wouldn't get your hopes up though - I cant see them delivering it to you on a Saturday.
Is it home delivery only? |

| i absolutely detest argos, they are just guaranteed to break/lose/forget/otherwise ruin whatever you get. what they save in shoplifting they must lose in employing gorillas in their warehouses! |

| Get your money back and go to toys r us.
We had our wardrobes from Argos. They were expensive so expected them to be good. They were oak and the doors were totally different colours. It took 4 months for them to send us a new door x |
