- Thanks for all the responses regarding IKEA Mail Order. I guess nobody has
- done any mail ordering with IKEA. Their 1993 catalog specifically say that
- IKEA is not a mail oder house. I didn't want to give up. I know that
- Christine (response to Internet if you are reading this) from IKEA mentioned
- sometime back that they are starting mail order soon.
-
- I called IKEA Burbank (CA) and they ARE taking mail orders!
-
- (1) Get the latest catalog (I sent a $3 check to the Burbank branch). It takes
- about a week.
-
- (2) Call up Customer Service. They will take mail orders. Their Shipping Dept
- will call you back in 3 days to tell you what the shipping costs are.
- Carriers include UPS and Ryder.
-
- (3) I haven't odered yet but will do so before Thanksgiving so no experience
- with how long it take for the merchandise to arrive.
-
- (4) They don't ship glass/china/breakables etc.
-
- (5) Go for it!
-
-
- PLEASE POST EXPERIENCES/UPDATES!!!
