    Well you must have bought the only three then. lol. Don't suppose you'd be willing to sell the spare? (Without the typical ebay profiteering mark-up)

    No? Well I wouldn't either. But can you check back on the site and double-check what i'm seeing. There doesn't seem to be any now
  • Can I ask how much you paid and was it the 8, 16, or 32?

    And how many were showing in stock when you noticed it go live please?

    I am wasting far too much time chasing this - I didn't even want one until this fiasco! I either need to make a decision to just pay the rip off ebay price for my sanity or leave it and walk away.

    Simply Electronics are advertising 10 32gb at £269.95 or 3 16gb at £229.95 with free postage but that is more than eBay! :(

    The way I read it is that he bought two (not three) - one for himself and one for his wife.

    At 9 am?!? Some people just wake up or get into work and the first thing they do is hit f5 on all their favorite tabs!

    Why did I have to wake up at 9.07?

    I've heard the expression "you snooze you lose",but come on, by 7 minutes!

    What they meant was they had several hundred sold in minutes to staff that had put in pre-orders and the remaining 3 were allocated into general stock!!!!
