8 till 6 means anytime between then mate, fair enough if it was before 10:30am U can chase them, otherwise they will tell you it will be delivered anytime upto 6pm! Argos home delivery? Good luck, have heard they aint all that reliable?!

write the note so that they can't take it with them.

as if it aint there and you put leave in garage etc then you may have problem if it aint there and they say it is.

Takes the piss doesn't it. Me + my missus were waiting all morning for a new bed to be delivered, it arrived reasonabaly on time. We then started assembling it + the twats had sent 2 'head' ends. Took numerous arguements with the company all day with questions like 'are you sure they're both the same height' for them to tell us late afternoon that it wouldn't be rectified on that day, so we wasted a whole day, cheers!!
