  • I ordered a couple of bits at about 11 o'clock. Nothing fancy, and certainly not 10/50/100 of each item like some idiots are. However, it's quarter to ten at night and I still haven't had an email through with any kind of confirmation? Has anyone received a confirmation email?
  • I assume people have but just to make sure - has anyone checked this site is legit?

    are you expecting a polite response when you insult people like that?

    I am not making any big thing out of it.

    If they do not deliver the order I'll have wasted 1/2 hr and that's it. Since I do not really need any of the items ordered it is not a big deal - mind you it still have value.

    But if I was making an order for something I really need that'd cause problems. That is why backend databases should be linked to the website. All major online retailers do that.

    Remember we are not talking about a pricing mistake (in which case I'd agree with you entirely). This is a genuine pricing reduction empire decided and advertised and that may fail to honour.

    This is a SALE item, and remeber people are using the 30% code (more than once)

    Even in a normal sale do items last long?? NO

    They get snapped up, as alot of this will.if it hasnt already done so.As someone pointed out, the site probally hasnt been updated since friday. But we have put our orders in to try. ok live stock info would be better but they havent got it. simple.

    If you Really needed this item as you said, would you be trying your luck in such a sale, i doubt it, if you really needed it you would just buy it..

    you read soo many times people panicking, will i wont i get it,if i dont im telling trading standards etc.. if people are that desperate for stock buy it normally.
  • Thats strange, i got a confirmation email off 1 of my 3 orders

    If  MSE's
    read  small print
    It stated in (  ) how many  items were available
    usually 4/5
    hard luck
    regards
    bjo
    if bojo would read ( ) is how many different tvs etc are in the sale not how many they have of each available >:(
