went to pick mine up just and was told they didnt have any, even though it was showing as having 4 in stock when ordering, had a go but waste of time as i knew and told them their staff had got them.
However I did manage to get the paper they print off when the reservation comes through and it said on it that it had been picked, which basically means the items where there and had been allocated for me.

OMG you will never believe it. I reserved mine last night and at 5.30pm today phoned the store to check it was still there. All was fine. I sent my sis over with reservation no to collect and she called me saying the lady at customer services said they only had one and it was reserved for someone else so no they would not give her one. My sis told them that she was extremely surprised since I was a mystery shopper and was very precise. She told them she would get me to come over.
She called me and just said that they didn't have one for me.I went straight over with my printout and the customer service lady said the one they had was marked for someone else but that both she and the manager had got one. She said in the circumstances she would give me the one behind the counter (this was 8pm) and if the other woman showed up before 8.30 she would have to give her HER one.'you know I have a boxer and need it to dry it's hair'. She repeated this twice - trying to put me on a guilt trip!!!!!

She explained they had three in store this morning and both she and the manager had thought it was a good deal.

It was only when I got home I spoke to sis and found out she had told them I do mystery shopping. The thing is I would never have told them that and I have never been on a mystery shop to that store. I suppose I can't now either!!! The only thing is I am sure thats why the cs lady gave me one.

Delighted though so thanks again OP. We are going to bring it to the chalet on holidays to hover it and the car and use it to inflate the beach stuff. Chuffed to bits.(Though still seething - wouldn't raise my voice or swear though, knew she could then get me to leave - did it quietly & firmly)

I reserved mine last night and picked it up from Carmarthen Currys today.

They told me that they only had 5 and someone had been in this morning to buy the other 4, so I was lucky Id reserved mine.

Looks good, not tried it yet, I need something to hoover the car, but I shall certainly try it on the dogs aswell, save my hairdryer.

Thank you OP

i reserved one, got there, the young cashier girl and boy tried to blag that all the reserved ones were gone and that they didnt know what happened to them as they 'cant find any'.

When I complained that I reserved one online and even checked on the phone and it said there was three in stock, and that they should have phoned to tell me if the reservation wasnt in stock as Id just travelled 50 minutes in traffic. 10 second phone call would have saved me all the trouble. Grrrrrr:(

Anyways, I said I wanted to see the manager (who oddly refused to see me even after I waiting 25 minutes, he was too busy gas bagging to a staff member at the other end of the shop, so rude!), I just kept waiting and ask for head offices number (girl said they didnt have it!), wanted to see if they could offer me something else to compensate for all the trouble they caused me by not ringing me, which they rudely refused. Big surprise.

Then after about half an hour of waiting to see the manager who was still refusing to see me, a dodgy looking chap comes up when he realised i wasnt going to leave and says Ill go have a look again.

I knew what was coming, I could sense the act....;)

Surprise surprise after waiting a further 10 minutes for him to come back (45 mins in all) he comes strolling back, oops I found it, here you go. The snotty girl turned purple, and said 'she couldnt find it' 'where was it'.

It was so obvious that the staff was telling people who hadnt reserved one that there was none left, to keep them for themselves. Seemed even the manager was in on it. I just made it so awkward and refused to leave until I had my hoover, again it was so OBVIOUS!

Must admit, I was preety peeved at them yet happy I won. I just paid for the hoover, didnt say a word and just walked out with a smirk on my face.;)

Think you should really complain th head office as this is very bad cistomer service and I'm sure Currys would want to know! (assume it was Currys?)
