  1. Anyone comment on whether Roseversand are decent at fulfilling mail order
    from the UK.

    Their dynamo prices are significantly cheaper than any UK sources I've
    found, eg. B&M bottle dynamo for 30euro and a B&M front stand light for
    20euro, against approaching £30 each in the UK.

    eg:

    Roseversand themselves are fine. However, they use DHL who in my case
    managed to make my parcel disappear for a couple of months. Eventually, it
    made its way back to Rose with a note indicating that a city address was
    necessary, even if you didn't live in a city.

    Peculiar people.

    Exactly the same experience. Not helped by a complete mess up over DHL
    Tracking numbers - the ones that Roseversand insisted were correct
    according to their local DHL office were not recognised by DHL. First
    parcel never arrived. Eventually replaced by a second parcel that
    arrived OK. I assume it is a DHL problem but getting Roseversand help
    in tracing it beyond giving me a tracking number that was no use proved
    a big problem. Nice people when you phone them though.
