    I would be inclined to order it now, then reorder any bits that are in the sale on saturday and cancel/send back the non sale items. You might well find that if you order now you will be charged the sale price anyway as this happened to a friend of mine last year who had a similar dilemma.

    Hi all,

    Thanks for your advice - logged in to order it all this morning but already the Coffee Table is Sold Out...am so annoyed, should have ordered it all last night when it was available! :mad:

    As for the rest of the items i want, I think i will just order them full price, and then return them if any are still in the sale on Saturday.

    I did my order on line last night and ended up checking out a few times. I received my E-Mail confirmation straight away. The first order had gone through at sale prices and the second went through at full price. I rang customer services this morning to tell them that it had been ordered during my sale slot and had gone through at full price and the lady on the phone told me that i the order that had gone through at full price amounted to £638!! and that it had also gone through twice, so i have two orders of £638 on my account even though i only have one e-mail for that order. She said i'll have to wait for the items to be delivered and ring up once i know i'm keeping items off that order to get the full price knocked down to sale price....but i have to do that for each time i get a delivery!!!! Anyone else had an order duplicated or gone through at full price?????

    Hey

    I'm not a vip for the next sale but saw through Martin's e-mail the amazing offers. Are these offers repeated on Saturday or are they different items/discounts for Saturday? I ask because I wanted a half price tv! I just wondered whether it was a seperate allocation or whether when they've gone they've gone.

    Any replies appreciated :)

    This is rare I done this last year and got charged full price and they wouldnt even discount it to sale price for me and I only ordered it 3 hours before my VIP slot!

    Unfortunately once its gone its gone and its a very slim chance any non vips will get a TV half price which is why I was surprised Martin had emailed everyone about it

    as far as i know, tvs arent held in the stores, and they have already sold out online - so the likelihood of getting one on saturday, is zip

    The prices are the same for everyone
