its a new week, so its a new price.
my tv from pcworld was 999 when i bought it, a week later it was 799.
id just cancel the order and buy elsewhere, unless you are really dead set on it, tho if you are, you wont be bothered about the price.
you were prepared to pay the higher price so really, you havent been robbedTarget Savings by end 2009: 20,000

You aren't legally entitled to the £120 back, as you have accepted to buy the goods at that price. The only way you could get the money back is to cancel and re-order...If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

How were they going to supply the item at the higher price anyways if it is out of stock??0

cos they have already logged it in their system (as despatched or ready to be despatched)Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Thank you Honey Bear0 -
So they've reduced the price, but they have none to sell at the lower price anyway, so the OP has not missed out at all.0

So the lower price is pointless if they don't have any in! You were presumably happy with the higher price, so c'est la vie.0
