    Was half an hour ago, I ordered one just in case but I know I won't get it.
    If you're going to stalk me, while you're at it can you cut the grass, feed the dog & make sure I've got bread & milk in :D

    Just checked my account still hasn't been cancelled(I ordered at 5.30 this morning) just the following message,

    "Some / all items have been placed on special order with our suppliers"

    I'm not giving up hope yet

    Must admit Fifi it did cross my mind that sometimes its better to wait until you have them in your hand because surely the fact that so many thousand orders are going through, would be enough to set alarm bells ringing with the internet staff at Waterstones:confused: I hope your sister gets hers as she was one of the first to order :)

    Just received this...

    Dear customer

    I am writing to apologise for a significant pricing error that appeared on
    the Waterstones.com website in the past couple of days and that has
    affected the order that you recently placed.

    The error concerned was on the Harry Potter Boxed Set, ISBN 9780747593683,
    which should be priced at an RRP of £185. For reasons that we are
    currently investigating, the RRP displayed on our website was changed to
    £6.99. This is clearly a mistake that we have identified only this
    morning. As soon as it was identified, we removed the product from our
    site.

    I regret that we will be unable to fulfil the order at the price of £6.99
    and will therefore have to cancel your order. Please be assured that we
    have taken no payment from your account.

    Should you still wish to purchase the product at the correct price, please
    contact us at 0800 328 5723 and we will reinstate your order for you with a
    discount of 10% off RRP.

    I hope that this does create too much disappointment or inconvenience for
    you.

    Once again, my sincere apologies for this.

    Yours faithfully

    David Kohn
    Head of E-Commerce
