Unhappy ARG! i am so frustrated!

ARRRRGGG!!!1!!!1111!!111

i am so frustrated right now!
i bought my beloved beardy a bigger viv (48*24*24 i think it is :S), the one he is in is fine, but as i love him (as i feel bad becasue he isnt allowed such a free roam of the living room anymore due to a new family dog!) i thought he'd appriciate more room to play/bask etc!

so i went along bought my new viv from my favourite reptile/fish shop, really excited. when i eventually got home and set it up, it had no runners.... so the glass couldnt go in!
i was upset, but its not the shops fault as they wouldnt know, so i called them up, they were fantastic, offered to replace it or order runners in... i asked for a replacement as i wanted it up and running asap etc etc, so we went along and got the replacement!

now, both me and my partner have just started uni, so we havent actually had time to set up this replacement viv, so i ahve free time today and thought to myself, ill do it and then ben sort all the holes out in it and wire it up when he gets back (i wouldnt trust myself XD)

only to find.... this one has no runers either!


ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG GGGGGgg


i knwo that is stupidly long just to say my viv doesnt have runners.... but it made me feel better!
:P
now...to call the shop ,
moan to the other half,
and hopefully sort it today???

ARRG!

EDIT

i wish i'd just ordered the runners in now :P

Runners could have taken quite a while to arrive. If it was me I wouldn't be able to wait. HATE it when this sort of thing happens!!!!!!

hehe luck of the draw sometimes.

if you really dont wanna wait for the runners ask the shop if they will be willing to pay for runners from another shop, and go to a glaziers they will have them

just order some runers of ebay, they'll only cost a couple of quid and you could have them in a few days. will save you loads of hassle.

4mm glass runners will cost you about £6 for the set and about £8 for 6mm.

these were the prices from my local glaziers so it might vary
