Did any1 manage to get one of these I have searched the whole of south wales and not 1 in stock and no stock for delivery either. Why advertise something when you cannot purchase it??:(:(

It's actually £299 not £349 as stated if you check on argos front page its on there as £299

    yes, my sister got the whole deal for the advertised price £299 (free printer included). She did however have to print off the advertised price for the deal (£299) from the website because her reservation came up at £349. The shop staff had to override the system to give her the correct price. And then she had to go to another store to get her free printer because they were out of stock in the one store around her she could get the laptop.

    The laptop is for my nephew who is starting year 9 at high school next week and it will come in useful for his homework (she bought the Word package for it too).
