Anyone used Red Oak Direct?

We ordered some waterproof jackets for work last summer and had them personalised too ... great prices and sent very quickly, plus were happy to amend the order at the last minute

Thanks for that, I was hoping that would be the case, I've placed an order for some Dunlop Purofort Thermo+ wellies.
I searched the forum first, looked for where people were getting them, and the "direct from Dunlop website" I read, was a chunk more money, so some history with R.O.D was going to help me decide.

I tacked on a few other bits as they do seem good value.
 
Just to add a bit of progress on this, the order went in Friday last, so far (updated the following Wednesday) still at "Order passed for processing". I know we are spoilt by some online stores, so I hope this is just "Old style service", in a good way.
 
Just to finish this off , in case anyone is searching the forum later.

The "1-3 Days delivery" took longer.
I ordered on Friday, and the items were delivered the next Friday, packed OK.
The Dunlop boots were fine, good price, the box was a little broken.
I like the boots, but have yet to try them sat for a long time to compare with Aldi Neoprene.

I ordered two pairs of Portwest Dynamic base layer leggings, one box had obviously been opened, probably for the same reason I hit.
I pulled them out and could not believe how small they looked, I'd followed the size guide but these things are really like stretch leggings or women's tights (as far as I remember...). Snug and fit OK once stretched, but probably better for active work than hide sitting.

A thermal (beannie) hat was good.

So on scale 1-10, 8.
Bit slow, boxes opened, but otherwise OK.
I hate giving my purchases to the big guys like Amazon, but the vague delivery schedule is awkward if I am trying to work around being out in the day.
