    Hey guys, I got the TV and, in a shocking twist, am keeping it!! Sorry all those who were no. 1 on the waiting list. I'm really pleased as I stayed late at work just to get it at 5.30 before it mysteriously disappeared.

    Now all I have to worry about it when on earth it will be delivered and how we're going to make sure someone's in. I normally get stuff delivered to work but didn't fancy carrying the TV home!

    Did that just pop up?
  • Ok a bit technical for this time of night but I am really confused, please put me right if I am getting this calculation wrong....

    Eg. TV

    £329.99
    Lightning Deals price:
    £249.99
    You save:
    £151.90 ( 37%)
    (This is the actual description in the basket) goes for everything I have bought though.

    Whereas I would say;
    £329.99
    Lightning Deals price:
    £249.99
    You save:
    £329.99-249.99 = £80 ( 24%)

    Nothing in the basket seems to add up saving wise or percent wise. Anyone else notcied this?
  • Thanks auntiesue. Books cancelled and ordered at the book people :)

    The £151.90/37% is off the RRP - Amazon (and most other retailers) are selling it for £329.99 or thereabouts, which is a saving already and the lightning deal is even greater. Not too shabby!
  • I didn't realise it wasn't 1080,so i've declined it too,i was 293 on the waitlist as well lol

    Thanks for the links people.
