    if you ordered it and they don't take your credit details on the phone does that give you the phone?



    It probably means that they have opend you an account, so you pay for the phone weekly/monthly......But even if they have opened you an account you can pay the full price of the phone off when you get your first statement

    when you click "check stock" it says item not currently available, if you go thru with the order will they send it once back in stock?


    I don't know if they will let you carry on with the order if an item is "Not Currently Available" Give it a go and see if it allows you to complete the order,
    You might get an email informing you that your order has been cancelled, Or they might say it is on back order. You won't know unless you try.

    They have probably been informed my Samsung that they cannot meet demand.

    No I won't, I know very well, what retail margins are.

    Also, R&D costs are high plus marketing. You don't take a phone that you are selling for £200 which is for sale at the very cheapest of £150 and make a profit.

    At the average selling price on this "offer" after discounts and Quidco of about £90 plus the cost of interest free credit for some of the buyers, it is not a profitable exercise for Grattan/Freemans.

    Anyone who thinks that this is not a loss leader and that they're still making loads of money is either naive or kidding thenselves.


    We'll agree to disagree then :p

    Jeppy, that is the code you put in the 'quick order' part of Grattans website. Just worked for me.

    Take the L out of the code and it will work, although they are now "Currently not Available" (this is for Freemans) Grattan seems to work with the L left in the code

    Which is a shame for those who genuinely want it, But a huge slap in the face for those who are trying to sell 300 BIN information auctions hahaha
