HELP re Woolies online please

Hi I'm sorry if this is the wrong place but I'm having a panic. I just remembered that I've preordered and paid for 2 dvds on the woolworths website online and they aren't out till 1st and 4th December but now that woolies has gone under I'm worried I won't get my stuff and don't know what to do should I cancel or do you think they'll come??
:p

    Other people have said that Woolies only charge you on dispatch of goods.

    Logical thing would be to cancel as long as you have not yet been charged for them. Then buy them somewhere where you are sure its safe - or as sure as you can be - with anyone these days

    they are and will be until after christmas.

    it's people flying off the hook and only reading half the story
    helpful tips
    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

    To the OP. Are you sure you have paid for the pre-ordered stuff?
    I have 2 DVD's on pre-order with Woolies. One is due for release on monday, the other the following monday.
    My credit card hasn't been charged for either (yet). Although website down - so no idea if we will get order or what now!
