Benefit fraud is just 'playing the system'? Not a criminal offence, then? Think about it.

It's one thing benefiting from a money off voucher and it's another using the same code 3 or 4 times to order things so as to pay very little. I would call this playing the system - just the same thing as benefit fraud which oh so many of us have high opinions about.

How can you not see that getting so many dwarfs and using this code so many times is the same kinda thing!!! Dont you think also that if so many people hadnt abused the dwarfs offer then others might not be getting cancelled now?? So yes by you and everyone else ordering so many dwarfs, you have hindered others getting them!! Same thing. Get off your high horse, one rule for one another for everyone else!!

I agree it's not the same thing.

With the dwarfs, there's an argument that there was an element of dishonesty. When you bought those, you told the seller that you had purchased some other items, enabling you to get the special price.

In the case of the Evans offer, you were offering them the code as part payment - a code that is widely available. And they themselves have put no restrictions on the usage.

Comparing using money off vouchers to benefit fraud is slightly over the top, don't you think?!
Not to pick holes, and I don't fully know what the deal is with the dwarves, but as far as I understand, you had to make a purchase in order to obtain one? I think if people have ordered these without making a purchase, then people who really did make the required purchase may not be able to buy their dwarves because people who didn't make the required purchase had bought them all! Swings and roundabouts, as they say!

Good luck to anyone who gets any of their purchases, whether it's dwarves, Evans bits and bobs, or whatever!!

Didn't you order some earrings, too? Is that order still okay so far?

hi, yeah I did although it was a couple of hours later...no email for that one as yet, but I would have preferred the purse!! lol

Hoping that its not the beginning of them cancelling orders...I'm such a worry wort but I really want my tshirts.
