    why would nintendo get directly involved mate, they just make the thing lolol. ITs down to the retailers mate. Tesco have stock, check in store ;)

    Also they are selling the product just done a name change, the product we all thought we brought was the new pokemon bundle which should have a red front, they used the old bundle picture but released it on the new release date for the new bundle. So i am expecting the new bundle. plus the picture they and others used has been on sale since 30 may and is now old stock. THe date of 12th is the date of the new pokemon bundle.

    This is what Tesco are now selling, however they have re-named the product and it does not show a product number / barcode so they will prob say it's a differnt product to what we have ordered!  ???

    You maybe right
    Tesco would say though that in store and on line are two different companies, therefore in store stock is nothing to do with our orders.
    With so many online orders wouldn't Nintendo have to restock a online supply logistics company?

    Tesco and others according to their OWN sites released this product on 12th November. This is the new release date for the NEW pokemon bundle. (pic below) this is what they thought they were selling. (insider informed this is rumour in tesco staff)

  • Just joined this forum having read through the threads and been in the same situation regarding the Bundle. I have made a formal complaint. It won't do for Tescos to say what they do about Nintendo as they have clearly changed their page since yesterday and are still advertising the same product but now at £109.99! They have never stated in any emails that the reason for not supplying is a mistake in pricing (which would have been covered by their policy), they simply state that they don't have the product. I don't think this is a satisfactory response. Anyone know a good forum regarding consumer rights etc?

    madmary :'(
  • Got my cancellation from Tesco's & I am not happy that they can't supply (at £34.99) but are accepting orders on the new revised price. Have e mailed them to tell them I will be taking this matter up with trading standards.
  • Just fired of an e mail to trading standards.

    so those people who have had a cancellation email, when did you order , just looking how far back they are cancelling so far. I.e earliest time ordered.

    Also still no news !!
  • I've ordered one from tescos, I'll just wait and see waht happens as I haven't recieved any cancellation email yet. Anyways here is a website where you can lodge a complaint with your local trading standards office easily. It does work as I have had responses back off my local office when I have used it:
    Trading Standards Consumer Complaints
    I always tell the truth. Even when I lie.
