    I think your store has sold out then, mine is now showing that. Probably because a lot will have reserved them.

    P.S I love Argos! I went in with my reservation and their till showed "Not available to sell". So I stuck my ground and told them I had seen it on the website (Not at the POS they had set up or in their new leaflet which both said 23rd June :D) and after a call to store support I believe Argos have now lifted the sell restriction, presumably centrally.

    So buy away and remember who lifted the ban ;)

    Helped having a lovely women serving who was willing to do everything she could to help me :)

    It won't be centrally changed untill Friday.

    Stores have the power to adjust flags on products manually (which they must have done in your case) but Mr Argos doesn't like that :), there was a massive clampdown on this over Christmas as staff were buying big release games about a week before launch!

    Argh. Had my DS running fine, I leave it to charge and come back to it just now. Dead as a dodo! No lights or anything coming on now

    If I take it in tomorrow for exchange will the tills be locked again? Or is the exchange process OK with the not available/available thing?

    Not sure tbh, it could get reset as part of the overnight process. However if the same store sold it you before i see no reason why they wouldnt replace it?
