    yep - greed is the only word for it.

    And if, as i suspect, they try and wriggle out of it your argument at court won't work aswell as someone that hasn't been so incredibly greedy - since with 20 it's difficult for you to suggest that you didn't know it was a massive pricing mistake. With only 1 or 2 - it's possible to perhaps argue someone thought it was merely an amazing promotion.

    20 is a disgrace I ordered one as a joke to see if I may actually get a bargin but you have been selfish.

    Mine is still saying security check after 1 1/2 hours! On checking it says it can take 48-72 hours, by which time they will definately know the problems and probably cancel!

    I ordered one at 11.12pm, and my partner ordered one at 11.14pm. We both used switch. His went more or less staright to 'pick in progress' status but mine stayed at 'security check' for over an hour. I then changed my payment method to my visa card, and it progressed to 'pick in progress'.

    Hope this helps.

    1- How will i be any money out of pocket? If they don't get delivered it will be refunded to my account.

    2- Greed??? greed on who's behalf? As you can see from the times of my order i was one of the last to order or were the people who got up and came here at 9 or 10 o clock this morning still expecting for the offer to be there?

    To be honest it was a typo i only wanted to order 2 and when i got the email saying out of stock i didn't bother to go back and cancel it and went to bed.
    It was only when i checked my emails this morning i saw the next email from them.It still more than likely won't come but i tried to cancel the order or reduce it down to 2 and their site wont let me do it so what can i do???

    Someone suggested that say for example ebuyer went through today, all our money would go with it! so that's £40 of mine and £740 of yours! :)

    A typo, so when it came up the total ammount due you never thought it was a bit odd that it should come to around £80 but had in fact come to over £700.
