    do you think there's a chance of some petrol ones being returned when people realise its not the cable one they've ordered?:confused:

    I got the order in and they took the money but phoned to say they were refunding as "..not enough in stock to meet the orders..".

    I think under contract law I would be entitled to make them fulfill the order (T&Cs attempting to frustrate this would probably be deemed unreasonable by the court) but as this was just an opportunist purchase, life's too short..
