    I don't agree that everyone was being greedy for wanting more than one set, christmas it just around the corner and these would make great gifts. I just ordered one for me but if others wanted more why not? The chances of them honouring this were very slim anyway I think.

    Perhaps if people hadnt been so greedy yet AGAIN ! this might have been honoured - but NO ! every time there is anything like this the greediness starts - personally i would only ever order the one set if i had a chance - but as i already have them its no big deal .
    Everyone just goes mad and orders 3 + sets - just like the Argos mistake - not content with just doing it once for the voucher - it has to be done 3 and 4 times !
    Why are you so greedy , are you not satisfied with your good deal - or is it that you want it all and no-one else can have a chance ??????
    No, i actually wasn''t buying any of these things - but cannot understand the pure greed !

    Not greed, they make ideal xmas presents at a cost I can afford as I am on a low wage. Hence any offers I see that I deem reasonable and won't be wasted, I'll go for.

    Don't forget, there is not only this forum, there are thousands out there.

    It sounds like they won't sell at that price anyway, I can imagine Waterstones will be ringing a lot of people up tomorrow, from the posts on page 1 that say they'll contact you to ask if you want the items at the right price or cancel the order.

  • Hi thanks for great post even if it doesn come to anything was worth a try. I ordered one of these for myself as an early christmas present. Received the order confirmation but then subsequently received the same e mail as everyone else! When you look on the site it still says order in progress tho and the price is £6.99 it just says waiting for supplies from supplier (probably not worded like that tho lol!) so you never know stranger things have happened!

  • Well I gave up as soon as they started sending out the "supplies from supplier" email and cancelled my order altogether, at least it stops them charging me full price

    Worth a try, nothing ventured.....

    Thanks OP
