Argos nintendo dsi in black £79.99!

MY DH has just been to our local store to collect those we reserved and now the self service machines do not recognise the item number .He asked the staff and they and all Argos stores have now been sent a fax from head office to say it is a pricing error and told not to honour any further orders.
Well done to those that got one but I doubt the postal orders will go through.
Never mind. Too good to be true fro some of us! That's life.

The price will be honoured if you have already ordered with payment. They can't increase the price of your order once you have accepted it and provided payment details.

As some are saying, they aren't always honouring the low price in store when reserving without payment.

It is definitely £79.99 reduced from £149.99, it says so on the website - it is not a glitch. When you ring the check & order service it says it is £79.99, but is excluded from the 30 day money back guarantee (but still Ok to take back if faulty).

I then spoke to customer services, she quoted me £79.99 reduced from £149.99. It is a genuine sale item.

Seems strange they've had time to fax through to all the stores but yet it is still on their website!

I couldn't find any stock instore near me, so just ordered on the phone - being delivered tomorrow!

Thank you so much OP - and to all those cynics who gave the poor OP stick for posting!!!!

To be fair this wasn't the original offer the op posted, she posted the ds lites red, pink and blue for £79.99 as she thought they were dsi consoles.
It was only when someone mentioned the black dsi deal that she changed it to that.
I'm still grateful for the op because I wouldn't have known about the real deal.

they also said to me it was £79.99 without me prompting in any way

No, reread her initial post again. She said Black DSi, pink & red DS - all £79.99!

I am very grateful to the OP. I ordered by phone, I hope they honour it as they took my credit card details and it is supposed to be delivered tomorrow.

Well we disagree then, some stores still have it at £149.99 and they have stopped the link working - it was working earlier before 9 apparently.
