Yea the standard Royal Mail tracked 48 is up to £100.
Royal Mail Tracked 48 | Royal Mail
End-to-end tracking for peace of mind Royal Mail Tracked 48. Get your letter or parcel delivered within two to three working days
MM seem to cover the full amount which is specific to them using their postage options (Royal Mail, Hermes, Asda or kiosk)
To be clear, it’s insured by them and not the courier (ie Royal Mail), so you’d need to fight with MM to get them to payout. Tracked 48 has no additional insurance or delivery guarantees.Using any of MM shopping options means it’s fully insured
Are my items insured on their way to you?
Your order will be fully insured when you use any of the labels that we provide in your Pack & Send Guide. If it's been over 7 working days and you're concerned that your order hasn't arrived w...
I personally don’t feel entirely comfortable with their ‘don’t use special delivery’ messaging claiming processing will take longer as I’d rather know it is actually going to be delivered in a timely manner and insured by the courier.
I always use Special Delivery at my own expense for sending to recyclers, anything less is just not worth the risk IMO (although I refuse to use MM after a bad experience with them a year or two ago)
Just curious will my bank still cover/compensate if the device gets lost in transit etc. My device is still on the policy schedule as I havent removed it.
Yep, see my note above.
People’s experiences will always differ and until you’ve had a bad one you never really know.
I’ve traded with MM for years and, touch wood, never had an issue with items arriving or being paid the quoted amounts. Have sold 4-5 phones over the years, my MacBook, old consoles etc.
Always used their labels too, just rock up to the post office with your packaged item and QR code and you don’t even need to print off at home.
Obviously people will be cautious but they are one company I trust. Seeing Argos send out a flimsy envelope would put me right off using them!
People should use their own couriers by all means, you will probably lose the MM update emails etc on how it’s progressing, and also make sure you put details of your order and where it is coming from in the pack. Maybe give yourselves a few extra days too
Given it wouldn’t be lost or stolen and you’ve intentionally sent it off under your own free will, they’d defo squirm out of it!
So viewing order today for me will be

Guys who pre-ordered on Amazon, any update on the delivery dates? This anyone manage to have estimated delivery for this Friday or is everyone on the same boat? Thanks.
My MM delivery was similar, I also posted Saturday morning & it hit Home Counties North MC at half 5 Mon.
Nearly there!
Show me the money MM!!
Same here. The order tracking portal just says "Expected Delivery Date: Awaiting Confirmation" but below that, it shows the order as confirmed etc.
Imagine him dropping the iPhone out of that window.
How did they manage to get Canadian stock and also selling base model for £1500+.
Apparently they are. Somebody plugged the serial number into Apple’s support site to check
I did try the Nike Run Club app once upon a time when I first jumped on the Apple Watch bandwagon, but I can't remember why I decided to not continue with it. Will revisit it!
Ordered within 2 minutes of them going live, 256 Pro in Graphite. Current estimated date is the 15th November... I am kind of hoping that this is just a random date they have put down whilst they establish the actual amount of stock they are going to have.
I also have a pickup ordered at Apple but would rather get the Amazon one since I have around £340 in credit there to use...
I got a text/email from DPD saying my package would be delivered today between 2pm and 3pm 😰😰
Initial excitement then the realisation set in that it’s my replacement hoover from GTech 😤
So not only is it not new Apple toys, I’m going to have to hoover the bloody house today 😭

Always used Runkeeper and recently moved to strava as I know more people using it
In a work Zoom call, my burner 6S battery nearly died so I plugged in to charge on call.
6S went extremely hot, brainwave kicked in to try an experiment (whilst we all wait for the embargo to lift!).
Ingredients
1 medium egg
Process
Keep the 6S plugged in on charge and flip over onto the front of a flat surface.
Crack the egg carefully into a small frying pan.
Place frying pan on top of 6S.
Wait between 12-13 minutes if you like a runny egg or 15-17 minutes if you prefer a harder egg.
Result
1 healthy fried egg slowly cooked by unhealthy iPhone 6S battery!
