Yeah, sound like you got in just in time!

Sahbear - that's a great tip, I hadn't seen that site! Was it a lot cheaper to do the purchasing and shipping seperately then? I'm happy to give that a go if it makes a bit of difference.
I think they charge a % to purchase it for you, but i cant remember how much! Sorry - not very helpful am I!? Hopefully it explains it on the website.
Shipping can be a little expensive - so we went to a baby shop here - to get the dimensions of the box and the weight - so we could work out approx how much shipping was with them before we did it!
I was slightly embarrased asking to see the box in the store here - so i made up a little white lie of moving across the country and needing it the info so i could ship it over!

also - i have heard good things about Baby on the run!
