Bought Office 2007 Enterprise for about £35 off them two weeks ago and heard nothing. Then today I received an email saying the whole batch of software was lost in delivery!

The prices do seem too good to be true but there was a link direct from the Microsft Education which made me think it was genuine.

Anybody used them and, if so, what are your experiences?

Never used them - I bought my copy of Office from Microsoft's own Ultimate Steal website, which came as an ISO download. Burn to CD and voila, it's yours.

I got mine off the Ultimate Steal site too but mine was in CD form and I've lost the ****ing CD key. It's impossible to figure out how to get a new one, the microsoft site just sends you in circles

I've used them, as have work-mates.

2wks is usual delivery time - I guess yours has been compounded by postal problems.

They really are a straightforward company to deal with IMO.

Office Enterprise for £35 (RRP around £450) bargain.

Yep, no doubt a bargain...if it turns up, fingers crossed!

Thanks for the replies as I'm a bit more reassured.

I thought it was for students and their parents (and grandparents iirc)...as soon as you have a kid at even primary school (ie 4 years old!), you can buy from them.
