    Unfortunately the we have run out of stock of the item ordered.
    Therefore we have cancelled your order and no money has been taken.

    Regards

    Info-Tech Shop


    I bet they will be back online in a few days at a higher price, being the same stock of course.

    The payment system they use takes payment right away, so when he says payment has not been taken, isnt strictly true, what I believe happens is money is taken, then refunded.
  • Pleased someone has benefitted from the deal at least!

    In my opinion you've all had a lucky escape, from my experience Maxtor drives are highly unreliable and you'll curse yourself for buying one when you've lost all your data, and worse photo's etc. Buy a Hitachi HGST instead.
