Someone on Hukd said that they spoke to customer services who said there's no chance- said its discontinued at Samsungs end and computer hadn't been updated.
False advertising!!!

Mine is still saying "order not yet processed". Waiting patiently now for it to change to "Now deleted"!

the ipad would be ideal for my daughter as she has speech and language problems and the apps for the ipad seem to be good for this but far too expensive for me.just thought the playbook might be a good alternative

I am not having a particular swipe at HMV, but why are stock control systems in this country so useless?
M&S are also pathetic..... especially during the sales.
Is it just UK companies who have such (r@p systems or is a decent stock control system an impossibility.
How difficult is it to set up a system where you enter stock levels of 500, and as and when they are ordered the stock level falls accordingly. Once all 500 have been ordered the item is shown as oos.
How complicated is that ???????
How can they run a business when they have no idea what their stock levels are?
How can they maintain efficient stock levels if they do not have triggers - i.e when to reorder stock.
You cannot reorder if you do not know your existing stock levels are low.
I mean, am I talking rocket science here or what ?

Same when I go into a store and they haven't got the product I want - but they have no idea when they will get more in !
They say they have 3 more trucks expected tonight - but openly admit they have no idea what 'head office' will be sending them.

As others have posted on this grabbit, and on many other threads, it is the pure waste of time spent by customers ordering things (esp dozens of items for example in M&S sale) that drives people nuts.
Then to be waiting expectantly for your goods to arrive, only to receive sometimes a succession of emails saying various items are now oos.

How inefficient.
Do the idiots not realise that it will affect future sales.
I for one never order from M&S anymore as my life is too short to waste hours trawling through their site and ordering items, for it all to have been for nothing.

All I can say is if their stock control system is typical of how the rest of the company is managed, no wonder they are in financial trouble.:cool:
How can they value their assets if they don't know what stock they have ?
Beggars belief.
Sorry rant over.:p

I was just reading through this thread,I never ordered,but I wholeheartedly agree with your post,I'm fed up to the back teeth of these companies not having real time stock levels.

John Lewis & HOF for example tell you how many items are in stock on their websites when you order ,why can't everyone do that.

Tesco & Debenhams are the worst for me :-(
