    Cue the rant that they have to honour the original price followed by threats of small claim court.

    Won't have a leg to stand on(I didn't order):

    Saying that, some folks on HUKD have ordered 25!!!!!!!!

    And that is why people who genuinely only want 1 copy as a bargain for personal use miss out, do these numb nuts who order 25 copies not realise?

    I know, it's really annoying but that's how it goes. I have ordered one for my mum but now i know that there's no chance of it going through. Still, you never know do you, it was only at that price for about 20 minutes (if that). We can dream......good luck with getting yours

    Would be interesting to see if anyone gets one.....mine has changed to 'awaiting stock' so i think that's that for me.

    You won't win, & plus it would cost you more than £11.79

    if they have debited the money from the account, would that mean contract agreed etc? (sorry newbie)
    as although it states in t&c contract not argeed until dispatch, it also states no payment will be taken until the day of shipping.

    they have refunded the money (yesterday)then took it back soon after although they sent cancellation email wednesday?
