Argos site reservations

Can anyone tell me how I can check what items I have reserved? I didn't print out the page I just wrote down the number and now I can't work out if I have reserved the right thing or not!!!! It is showing as out of stock now so I can't even reserve another one. Any ideas?

    I don't think you can, you will only find out when you go to the store or you could try telephoning them in advance if you don't want a wasted journey and they should be able to look it up for you.

    You would have got the reservation number e-mailed to you, if you entered an address into the prompt box and as Bossyboots said if you can remember any of the cat numbers of the items you reserved and the approximate time of reservation the store might be able to root through the system to find the number.

    When I made some reservations and was then too ill to pick them up, I simply telephoned with the reservation number which they looked up, confirmed the items I had reserved and extended the date by which I had to collect them. purplegirl should therefore be able to find out what she has reserved using this method.

    Yes the reservation number should have been emailed to you. If not then it is fairly difficult to locate on the instore system for online reservations, as opposed to when you reserve instore, more details are taken and lost reservation numbers are more simple to locate.
    All is not lost though as stock may be instore anyway and the cashier will check for you.
    It might be worth rereserving online if stock is available.

    I can't sday Ive had this problem. But occasionally I've reserved an item and promptly forgotten which branch. There doesn't seem to be any mention on the confirmation page or the email - boo hiss)

    While the store you've reserved at isn't currently showing on the confirmation screen [It's gone wonkey] it is shown on the third line of your confirmation E-mail - which looks a bit like this:
    Thank you for using argos.co.uk


    Your reservation number is ***102561***

    These will be held at the Camden store until the end of Wednesday, January 4th 2006.


    Here are the details of the item(s) you have reserved....

    Hurrah!

    My understanding is that it is the items reserved, not the reservation number that the OP was not sure about.

    You will only be e-mailed the reservation number and the details if you complete the box indicating you wish to receive it.

    if you go instore before the reservation expires and you can recall the day and time of reservation then they can locate it for you...

    When you go into the store, go to the quick pay terminal, and put in the reservation number, it will show what you reserved :)

    TRY checking your ieExplorer history. You might be able to work it out from the order you look at the items against the number (only if from the same store!)
    If not buy the lot and take the unwanted straight back...
