Yeh same for me too. Unless you've received an email saying your order has been processed, it aint happening people.

I ordered 2. Phoned CS to see when they would be delivered, said that they had been getting loads of calls about these. Apparently been out of stock for weeks, just didn't both to update their web site. Not getting anymore either.

Good job I checked, just presumed that it was all going through nicely until I saw others comments. If it's not in stock you shouldn't be able to go through the order process and be given false hope, especially as these were for my little uns.

Damm that St. Michael geezer.:rotfl:

I've not got a cancellation email yet, and I got a confirmation email yesterday morning with an expected delivery date of 11 Sep, and it shows online as "confirmed". I'm hoping this means I will get this, but how can that be possible if these have been out of stock for weeks?

EDIT: Latest news, just in... got the following email:

Mine appears to have arrived today! Big parcel in the hall carried in by two men, waiting for me when I get home. The kids already want to know what it is and who it's for - I'll have to come up with some story and get it out of the house again until Father Christmas comes.

I just told my boys it was for my mate at work and hid it in the garage roof when they were out. Will need to disguise on Xmas day so they don't recognise it (and remove the M&S stickers as well!)
