    Just a word of advice for those people lucky enough to get a Dispatch Email


    What happens when you place your order?
    For an item ordered from Amazon.co.uk: when you click the "Place your order" button, we will send you an e-mail acknowledging receipt of your order. Your contract to purchase an item will not be complete until we send you an e-mail notifying you that the item has been dispatched to you.
    For an item ordered from a third-party in Marketplace: when you click the "Place your order" button, your contract to purchase this item is complete and we will send you an e-mail confirming the details of your purchase.
    For books: our 30-day returns guarantee means that if for any reason you are unhappy with your purchase, you can return it to us in its original condition, within 30 days, and we will issue a full refund for the price you paid for the item.
    For all other items: we accept the return of all other items only if they are unopened and in their original condition. If you return goods, as detailed, within 30 days, we will issue a full refund for the price you paid for the item.
    See our Returns Policy.
    This does not affect your statutory rights.
    To return an item: please visit our Returns Support Centre.
    If returning a Marketplace order, you must contact your seller.
    Gift Certificates and Promotional Certificates
    If your gift certificate exceeds the cost of your order, we will place the balance in your gift certificate account. You won't have to re-enter your claim code to apply your balance towards future orders. If your order exceeds the value of your gift certificate, you will be given the opportunity to provide a credit card number to pay for the balance, or to redeem another gift certificate. Please note: promotional codes may have restrictions that limit you to one per purchase.
    Go to the Amazon.co.uk Welcome page (without completing your order)



    Read those terms, I would say that Amazon have to supply.

  • sounds like the people who have been given despatch details by email have a contract. Id get onto customer services and ask them to clarify.

    I would kick up a huge storm about this, as they really are not supposed to debit your account until the item has been ok'd for dispatch. Hassle them!
