I Pad 2 scam

I thought I had better warn other unsuspecting honest people like myself that, Certain large retailers i.e. Currys are taking orders for Ipad 2's in my case one costing £560 when in reality they haven't got any in stock. My wife ordered one for me last Friday and asked 3 times how long the delivery would be to be told that it would be a maximum of three to five days. the money was taken out of our account in full on wednesday and only today when we chased them up were we told that it would be at least 28 days delivery. How many other thousand people have fell for this scam and how much money must Currys be making on all of the interest.
