    I too have a secured a Core box, G7 postcode.

    All the extra bits that come with the Premium pack are available from Game (saw them in EK store yesterday).

    The question now is do I keep or sell on for a small admin profit???

    Hmm, deffinately something suspect about this.

    Premium packages are apparently still in stock (see here)

    Then JUST after submitting my personal details and payment details I get THIS

    That's just so cr@ppy.

    That's exactly what I had at 1.30pm. First one I tried seemed as though it went through all ok - but order acknowledgement page only 'would you like to register your details' so I don't think it went through - when I tried again I had the page you had.

    Having said that when I then tried for the core system - it came up straight away as being out of stock - but I've just tried now and I've got through the checkout and an order acknowledgement for delivery Monday - although not received any confirmation e-mail - so I don't hold out much hope for this one either.

  • interesting

    I have an order number - starts with AD

    If they dont supply on this I will kick off big time. Why cnofirm stock and order if they dont have. If i'd have known this was the case I would have gone to a competitor

    Be interested to see if I get a reply from the chief exec

    Do they have the elusive hard drive in stock? :)

    Keep it, play it to death, enjoy it. Then sell it on later. It won't lose value.

    I've just rung - and they've told me the core system order has gone through and is ok for delivery monday (the full system order I had tried first definitely didn't go through he said).

    Will believe it when I see that box on Monday!!!

    Thanks to OP

    I've just ordered a Core system got a confirmation code however customer service are saying that the order doesn't exist yet. I've got to phone back in a couple of hours
  • Just phoned up Argos and the guy said they are in the warehouse but not showing up in stock and to try in another hour.

    Phoned earlier and was told that the core is in stock. Should have ordered then as there now seems to be a problem.

    Anyone else had more luck?
