mollymo Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Was really weird today i had a meeting at work and we had to all introduce ourselves. One lady said she kept hens so afterwards i told her about my eglu i ordered. She said she was selling hers as moving abroad so she said i could have the whole set up for £150.00. I have already ordered here online and feel awful, can i cancel order? I will buy food off egly though and extras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Yes I'm darn sure you can cancel - and don't feel bad, Omlet have more orders than they can cope with at the moment and there's quite a delay on delivery for some areas - go for it. you lucky, lucky thing! Bite her hand off (and if you don't, then send me her phone no!) What colour is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollymo Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 I have just emailed Omlet and suggested a franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumpty Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I'm sure they'll be fine, I've cancelled the run on my cube because my husband is building me a walk in run (nothing like Troy's though). They offer a full 30 day money back guarantee after it's been delivered so I'm sure they'll let you cancel before that. Like Olly said, give it a try and wow, you are lucky to have come across her.

Egluntyne Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Just check whether her Eglu is a Mark 1 or Mark 2. A Mark one is fine, just a little smaller, and still a bargain at £150, but it is best to be clear about what you are buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Wow, what a good price, you should definately go for it. On Ebay you are looking at £250-300 second hand. As Egluntine says find out if it is a Mark I or Mark II as when you buy spares (like roosting bars etc) in Omlet shop you will need to know this. Look at the pictures on here for the difference. http://club.omlet.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12652 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toastedblue Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I have already ordered here online and feel awful, can i cancel order? you have 7 days from day of delivery to cancel, that's after it's delivered it's called the distance selling law and is part of your statutory rights I wouldn't worry about cancelling anyway, I'm sure the lucky person who gets theirs (yours) early will be chuffed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I wouldn't feel too bad about it - you're saving a lot of money which you can spend on "essentials" for your girlies . I agree, find out which Mark it is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daj198 Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Well that sounds like a good day at work! Which breeds are you thinking of getting? Can I persuade you to get ex-battery hens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mollymo Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hiya Daj Yes you can persuade me. I am definetly getting ex battery. They will have a home fit for queens. Last few years or months will certainly make up for there first horrible tragic existences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
