Well I ordered an £18 and a £9 one around 25th Nov. The £18 one came a week ago, the £9 isn't here yet.

I now have 54 lights and need that other one to come to make 73.

Same here ordered the 25th and still not here, emailed the shop and they asked me to wait 1 more week but he did say he would send another if it didnt show.
