I'm looking at it this morning and yes it is taking at least 5 minutes to open each page, or even 5 minites to open the drop-down link thing so then you can click on the page you want and wait yet another 5 minutes for that to load! and I'm on broadband...

I've just bought a riding hat on there for my OH but it bloody ages to download the pages and then pay for it, got there in the end though. Lightweight hat cost £20.

Binned it. Tried to get a half-price stable rug for Gypsy but got to the checkout and then had to register so after 45 minutes got thoroughly bored and gave up.

Nimrod I don't think the telephone sale starts till Boxing Day. I've just ordered one rug I wanted, but the other was out of stock, so I wish I had tried earlier like you guys. Don't think it is quite so busy now, but it still took a fair old while to select, register, pay, give despatch details etc etc etc etc

Im a bit put off ordering things through the post as last time i sent for a rug from them they sent me the wrong size ( i ordered a 7' and they sent a 6'9" ) i also ordered a long coat which was too small so i sent them back ( awkward stuff to pack as the box they used was no good to re-use ), so took ages to parcel up. I then had to cart this up to our main Post Office as they wouldnt take it at our local one as it was too big. This was 3rd October - Robinsons didnt receive it so i waited a while then filled in a missing parcels form at the Post Office ( 3rd November) Didnt hear anything so rang P.O. complaints- they said they hadnt received my claim form!!!!! by now its 17th November!!! they said ring again in a week( worrying thing is i had to put my original receipts in with the form as they wouldnt accept copies).Then i get a letter from P.O. saying they had my form and had contacted Robinsons but they had not replied so they pressumed they had received the parcel!!! and the case would be closed ( we are talking £169.00 here ) anyway after a panic phone call to Robinsons ( who incidently said " we havnt had a letter from the Post Office"!!!!!!) it all worked out and i got my cheque today HOORAY!!! By the way Robinsons said they sent a 6'9" rug because they had sold out of 7'!!! I think i will buy from the tack shop in the future !
