Advantages: Cheap products, free delivery

Disadvantages: Not telling you when they are going to be out of stock for ages

I discovered this site today, from a search on minidisc players. I want the new Sony MZG750 - a personal mini-disc recorder with radio tuner. At dixons, currys, etc, ti is £199.99 - which I was prepared to pay, but as usuaul, when I wen to Dixons, they didnt have anything!!

So, I decided to see if I could get a better deal online. I found the md for £169.99! Excellent deal, especially since unlike all the other sites, delivery is FREE!!

Sheerly by chance, my computer logged out of the site, and I was delighted to discover that there is a pop-up window that says if u were unable to find what you were looking for, give them details, and they'll get back to you. This, I did, just for the fun of it! and pleasantly received a prompt response [10 minutes later].

THIS IS WHERE IT GOES PEAR_SHAPED!Unfortunately, the reply told me that they had none insotck, and wouldnt for at least EIGHT WEEKS!! Why didn't it say this on the site!! I got all the way to thecheckout, and wasnt told!!! The products here are cheaper, but that small oversight has cost them my custom!! Back to totenham court Road it is!!

IT GETS BETTER!
I've had to come back online today to change my opinion. Within a few days of writing the above opinion, I received an e-mail from a bigwig down at be-direct explaining their situation with reticent suppliers. SO, I hereby apologise for blamin them. It's Sony that's at fault for my long wait, and I will happily wait to purchase the md player from them!!

The best thing about Be-direct.com is that they seem to BE DIRECT!!
