    They can write what they like in there T&C's, it doesn't mean that they're legal. I don't think they would stand in court, but who's going to bother to take argos to court over £70 knocked off a DSi?
    Next year we'll be millionaires!

    Anyone who has ordered from Argos before know if the order status updates when its despatched mine says:
    We'll deliver your order on Thursday 31st December 2009
    7:00 am - 6:00 pm
    .

    Will this change to despatched or does it just stay like this?

    Thanks

    Your statutory rights supercede those terms. You could take the to court if you wanted to, but this would cost more than the full priced Nintendo DSi, this is why Argos are able force you to either cancel the order, or pay full price.

    i have just had a phone call :( no dsi for me
  • Just seen this on HUKD, hope?:

    "Reading Oxford Rd branch have a stack of them at the collection point with a banner advertising them at £79.99 - which kinda indicates they were not just a web-site mis-price. Anyway managed to reserve & collect for that price - kudos to the OP for spotting this!!"

    I'm betting the banners was for the ds not the dsi.
