Why do companies lie about their stock left??? Ordered my lego block to come by Sunday. Got a message today to state they are having delays of new stock coming in and due to this the week delay must be past on. Why say they have 2 in stock (which they now have 1) which is obviously a lie!!! Rant over ill update when It finally comes and I have day to make it. Although will now put the car in winter mode instead.
