Waiting on my new alloys ordered them nearly 4 weeks ago - still not here
Usless bloke in the shop keeps fobbing me off with a load of shite aswellLast week when I went in to ask where the fu<k they were he say's oh, the supplier didn't have any so they are comming straight from the manufacturer in Italy, will be about another week or so..........surley he could find this out 4 weeks ago when I first ordered them
WTF should I do???

He phoned them when I went in friday.....answering machine, left message and said he would get back to me, Im still waiting
Gave me the option of getting another type of alloy, but I really want the first set I picked, so stuck with them. However my MOT is due soon and one of my tyres is slightly bald(Ok its a fu<king slick ) and Im going to need these new wheels for MOT. <unt just nods his head and smiles at me, yesh ok we will try and get them asap. Aye rightio Grrrrr

Why don't you try for some discount, just say something long the lines of "I understood that the alloys I've paid for would be here in one week, instead its already taken 4!!! I want compensation..."
Emphasise the fact you've paid for them, and that you'll be tellin all your mates not to bother with them in future. I ended up with almost £90 off mine, and a set of locking nuts when I got mucked about
