Just wanted to put my two pence in for you GabbY, if you didn’t want us jealous trolls talking about your business why didn’t you set up your new business quietly without telling anyone? Ahhh but that wouldn’t give you instant profit from all the literal sheep that follow you would it? Small business my ass, you could have started as an actual small business from scratch, built it from the ground up but all you could think of was money, so you made all your sheep aware of you new business venture, including us! Even now you could shut up shop and start from scratch so no one knows what your business is to ridicule it, but again, all you see is pound signs (not euro or dollar because you’re too lazy to take their money and research international shipping) if you can have the sheer audacity to fleece your fans out of their money, I think we can all have the ‘audacity’ to criticise you!
 
She liked a Tweet about post within the UK taking a month (must be limited to that region because I had an appointment and received the corresponding letter in the post the next day and that was only sent 2nd class) and yet she’s still saying UK orders will take 2-5 working days 🥲

Admittedly my post is pretty bad where I am right now because it's rather rural AND we've had a lot of snow recently, but the latest we've received first class and second class letters is a week later. I don't doubt that Royal Mail is struggling but I think some people are exaggerating it a bit.
 
Post in the UK with Royal Mail does not take a month at the moment, wtf! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

My friend works at Doncaster sorting office and says at the very very worst it’s about week late (I only know this because we are posting out learning resources for kids and was trying to figure out if it would be better to hand deliver ourselves)

Does she think everyone else lives in a bubble and doesn’t send or receive through Royal Mail? 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Weirdly a few of my customers have had their items delivered 3-4 weeks late (all in London, all said it's been happening to people they know too). Wtf.

I post quite a few things on eBay and have only had one person complain that they haven’t got their goods so I refunded her, but she probably got it eventually and just didn’t tell me😒 Since then I’ve not had even so much as an enquiry about when it will arrive so I don’t think the post is that bad. But some areas are worse than others. I think some areas are only getting two post deliveries a week. But even then, I assume the people in those areas will know this and expect their post to take longer.

Oh in that case I take it back! Maybe it’s because of staff shortages down south due to Covid?

Not true at all unless it's very particular districts, though we do have a central hub. I'm in London and I've sent things 2nd class only to find they arrive next day. I have had no problems sending or receiving post, and have also sent things to Australia and Germany with no issues.

This was the first week of Jan, so perhaps a backlog after Christmas, I could see the tracking for each and they really did take almost a month.
 
Didn't her site also say international shipping coming soon at one point? I would've made a little blurb about apologies I can't international ship still yet because it looks like she had a few disappointed customers. She could've offered a PDF file or something printable for those international customers that wanted prints instead of stickers...
 
Post has gone back to normal where I live in London, but it was pretty bad over Christmas. That's due to Royal Mail staff shortages... They don't have Royal Mail abroad. I'm sure other postal services are experiencing similar delays but I doubt using UK examples lets her off. And if she's delivering to somewhere that isn't in lockdown or as strict of a lockdown and with fewer cases then post will be pretty much normal.
