    Can someone prove to me that the Paypal was transferred to Pixmania?
    My paypal transaction says that I paid them, and then money has been refunded. Can only be refunded if it was taken in the first instance.

    Who cares ??? REALLY....we chanced it for a telly at a ridiculous price (obvious an error) whatever we may think OR hope.

    Fact is we are not getting it as Pixmania are stating it was an error. End of i'm afraid. No point us all moaning about it. Deep down we knew we weren't gonna get it..... I being one of them.

    As they say in scotland.. shy weans don't get chocolate :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Was worth a wee try though :T

  • ...and what amazing marketing/awareness for Pixmania. Lots of new registrants, lots of new traffic and probably more sales. If retailers are not obliged to fulfill orders for their products, what's to stop them all from 'making price mistakes'.

    Premier League - Bookies backtrack on mistaken odds
    http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/200420...aken-odds.html


    So if the punters lost would they say anything? how many people would have put a bet down with those odds, more than normal.

    Its like going into an exam and coming out and then saying oh i did a mistake i need to correct it? you'll have no chance.
    At the end of the day companies win people lose, only way to get back at then is to protest.

    I can see it now............

    Cabinet meeting, 10 Downing St.

    Gordon "is there anyway we can appeal a bit more to the man on the street?"

    Alastair "Well, there is this new fangled web thingy Gordon"

    Gordon "Ahh, yes, I've heard of it apparently that Facebook site is popular with teenagers and swingers" is there any good causes we can back to get us some more votes?"

    Alastair "Hold on Gordon let me go get a blindfold and a pin for you."

    Gordon "Well what did we land on?

    Alastair "Say no to Pixmania tv scandal"

    Gordon "Well, can we do anything about it to make us more popular?"

    Alastair "Hold on I'll talk to the defence minister" "now whats his bloody name again?"

    Gordon "I dont know we've had so many of them and they've all been crap"

    Alastair "ok, he says before our involvement in the middle east we could have sent an aircraft carrier to liberate the tv's, but now the most we can rustle up is a guy from the immigration department on a Jet ski"

    Gordon "Make it so Darling"

    Alastair "Will do cutie bum"

    HILARIOUS:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    As you may noticed, the price of the item does not reflect the real value of the product and we are required by law to cancel. we cannot sell products at a loss.
    For further information please do not hesitate to contact us.

  • Dear blackpool_saver,

    We regret to inform you that we have had to cancel your order number ********.

    For credit card payments no funds will be captured. If you paid by Paypal, a full refund is currently being processed.

    As you will have noticed the price of the product sold was a typing error: the price was below the real value of the item and in no way reflective of the real value.

    Legally, the order is not valid as the price is deemed vile.

    We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. Please note the error has been corrected and you can now place a new order for the same item. This will be dealt with immediately.

    Best Regards,



    Best Regards,
