E2/2: 20% Off Everything @ boots.com - 2 Days Only inc Ipods, PSP's, PS2's etc!

Boots aren't allowing big orders through. I've had 3 orders cancelled for ipod nanos with the 20% off codes. I'm trying a few other orders with different cards and accounts but I don't think they are going to honour expensive orders. Shame I was looking forward to selling stuff on Ebay.

Well looking at 'My Account' it says my order is processing, so fingers crossed!

Another Ebay leach just what we need to ruin things.

Sorry if you think I'm an Ebay Leach, I suppose I am trying to be one. However anybody who uses both 10% codes together is abusing Boots. Is it really any different if you save on lots of small items rather than bigger items? You are still leaching Boots of money.
I'm just trying to "save money" like everybody else. Don't really want to start a flame war, after all it is my first post.

No one is "abusing Boots", people are just playing the system.

Peoples problem is that people who place multiple and large orders wreck other peoples chances of getting a good deal!

Rather than everyone just getting one thing, one person gets 100 things to make themselves some money and wrecks everyone else's chances of getting anything!

Welcome to MSE spudgun - to be honest a post like that is just asking for trouble. Best to keep things like that to yourself to avoid upsetting people. Hope you'll stay with us and contribute to the community in a more positive way

1, Selling on Ebay is Moneymaking not Moneysaving and against MSE principles.

2, When Boots have to cancel multiple bulk orders like yours they tighten things up next time affecting us all.

3, Placing multiple bulk orders causes them to sell out, ie your greed means the rest of us miss out.

Most of the bargains are sold out now and half of it will end up on ebay by the weekend. :mad:
