I'm starting to feel left out... where's my cancellation order? Payment was taken last night (paypal, not from account which can take days, but directly from the card) so I hope they're not gonna be too late in refunding the money (even though I'd more like the telly. lol! If it had gone through it would have made a lovely birthday pressie for myself).

I'm outraged that Pixmania have cancelled my order! I try to buy a tv at a bargain price and they wont sell it to me! Just because if they fulfilled all the orders they would go out of business and all the staff would lose their jobs, why should I care? they're only Johnny foreigners after all.I see no reason why they all shouldnt pay for a pricing mistake with at least their houses, and I would go as far as selling their children into slavery (good prices being fetched at the moment) I bet they are laughing down their huge Gaellic noses at us right now! I'm sure none of us have made any mistakes in our lives(I know I havent) As we are in the depths of a general election I'm going to vote for any party willing to send in the SAS to rescue our TV's from the frogs. Who's with me? failing that,I've challenged the directors of Pixmania to a duel to the death with french sticks in Calais at dawn!(as long as I can get my bleeding satnav to work).Vive la Revolution!

Just to be clear though Pixmania are actually British owned (DSGI) and I don't think they will go bust if they honour this offer with what ever stock they have and maybe the adverse publicity would cost them more than the cost of honouring (certainly those who only ordered one like other companys have and cancelling those who ordered more than 1).

It's a judgement call for them to make.

No cancellation e-mail still, but I checked my paypal account and have gotten the money refunded. Nothing lost, nothing gained, apart from a little bit of fun.

I think you seem to have missed these areas: Commercial / e-commerce

No not at all. Neither of these areas are consumer related - if you read the descriptions they relate to organisations, new commercial deals, defending commercial litigation, ensuring websites are compliant etc. All appears in favour of the company not the individual - they are hardly Claims Direct!!

People just join the group, its only a click and you never know what the outcome woudl be. Yuo spend more time filling in the dam forms to get the TV, so just join and let it grow.

OK, so noone has answered.

Can someone prove to me that the Paypal was transferred to Pixmania?

Everyone keeps saying that they paid and the money was taken out of their Paypal account but as I keep pointing out, Paypal are a 3rd party.

When someone pays by Paypal, Paypal automatically take the money out of the account. They then hold it until (wait for it....)

Pixmania accept the money. Until this point, the money is held by Paypal.
