There are a few wind up merchants on HDUK, wouldn't trust everything you hear. I think someone called and alerted Mothercare to the glitch hence it being removed, we will just have to wait and see if we all wake up to cancellation emails tomorrow. Good luck all

I'm not saying I believe them, just that it will be interesting to see what happens. I actually think we will get these.

I think so too, £9 has already been taken from my account, they would of noticed the glitch and put a stop to it earlier with the huge amount of people buying them, i'd of thought?

gghh

I don't know if this was a genuine offer or a glitch but I do know for a fact that the Mothercare website is not updated that quickly so if loads of orders were placed at the same time, it is likely that some will be unfulfilled due to the item going out of stock before they can update the site.
Good luck to all that ordered, hope you get your car seat!!

Not is hasn't, the bank has reserved the money so you cannot spend it on anything else, save you going overdrawn etc.... Mothercare do not take their money until the order is dispatched.

They might well have 10 they wanted to get rid of but there were 70 thanks on this thread - some of those people have ordered 3 each, plus all the people on HDUK.

Very few companies have people working 24/7 on their internet site. Say you work for Mothercare and know you have done something and are getting the sack, what is to stop you putting 10000 car seats in stock and selling them for 90p with free delivery? This is why most retailers do not charge until the goods are actually dispatched.

When someone gets into work tomorrow they are a) going to get their ar se kicked and b) have a lot of work to do cancelling the orders. Once the orders are cancelled on their systems the funds are relased back to your card as the authorisation has been cancelled. No goods. No contract.

Aw thanks Blue monkey. That's a bit of a downer Well I can live in hope I suppose!

Oh, and this thread was started at 5.54 tonight - by which time most of the Mothercare employees have gone home and so therefore would not have noticed that 2000 people have been buying car seats for £9. They might well have had 10 or 20 - all of which were bought by the people on HDUK and so when the person checked, there might have well be 1 or 2 left in stock.

does anyone know what mothercare normally do when it comes to mis-priced items? I've never been lucky enough to snag a bargain quite like this before.

Good luck - what a bargain!! Too late for me both for he offer and for my kids. LOL
