I've just used Paisley. Booked on Tuesday, the email said pick up Wednesday but no show. The courier called on Thursday when I was out. I contacted Paisley who said pickup was scheduled for Monday (today), the courier turned up on Friday. The bike was delivered today.

Do they sort of work.

I've used Paisley twice. First time with no issues, second with their supplied box and bubble wrap. Box was thin, more so than one you could pick up from a LBS and there was minimal wrap so had to get more. Collected and delivered on time but the rear derailleur was damaged and hanging out of the side of the box but they weren't interested even though I'd spent £50 on insurance with them and supplied pictures.
