Like poor old Focus have, with the risk of nearly 4000 jobs.

My order has also been cancelled - oh well it was worth a go. I would have been more annoyed if I hadn't given it a go and everyone else had got theirs. Thanks again for the chance to get a bargain.

No. Most companies nowadays have in their T&Cs that the contract is formed on shipping.
Also, if you wanted to take them to court, you would lose as it is clearly a misprice.

If they take the money from your bank, then surely that is the point at which the contract is formed? This is no different from buying in a shop, Once they have accepted your payment the contract is formed, not when you leave the shop! Therefore surely once they take the payment for an online transaction a contract is formed?

It's totally different to buying in a shop- the rules are different.

In a shop once you pay then there is no argument, online is a different matter.

Give Consumer Direct a call and ask them to clarify the situation.

Let us know what they say.

You ignored my previous post above. Is that what you want to happen and possibly put a company out of business?
