    Anybody who has had a dispatch email most certainly has a contract, I've spent a bit of time checking and by far the best resource I can find for this including case examples is here:

    http://www.out-law.com/page-424

    This is a resource I found yesterday by accident, and I think it clears up a lot of questions as to where the consumer stands when a price error is made and the order is cancelled at various stages of the process.


    I also suspect that those who have recieved a dispatch email, will in fact get the goods on the day that they were due but time will tell.
    Hope this helps.

    I too got a cancellation email this morning and have just checked my email to find a despatch confirmation which I have tracked via my Amazon acct - very confused now!

    Same here - cancellation email but email saying my items have been dispatched an hour later - and also if I go into my Amazon account the order is there showing as status dispatched.

    Whether we get them or not - Amazon have made a right hash of this.
