****ing Hermes are *******s. I ordered a book from American Amazon and got it shipped to the UK. It had been pouring down all day on Thursday, so what does Hermes do? They leave the parcel under an already wet door mat for long enough for the packaging to be soaked, and the book is wet all the way through the hard covers to the pages.
Do Hermes care? Do they ****. They did the same with another parcel on Friday.
So now I have a limited edition hardback book that I paid almost £40 for that is ruined, and no amount of pressing, or squashing with any number of books will sort it out.
