Is it a new release?0

Oh dont even start me on them. The items on the site show as in stock, you add them to your basket and pay. Easy, especially as out of stock items show as "tell me when in stock" or something similar.
Luckily I called them, only to be told well actually all your order is out of stock. Why the hell they dont show that on the page is beyond me!!
I should have learned this lesson from my Dr Who preorders in summer, but I thought Id give them a chance to redeem themselves. But no, they fail again.
All I ask, and its not a big ask, is if an item is not in stock for goodness sake say so on the website!!0 -
it was a "sarah jane " toy ,a treat for my daughter because she managed to lie still for 45 mins during an mri scan, it was showing in stock at the time and she has been ambushing the poor postie every morning.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Almost all their stock of Dr Who show as in stock, the reality is most of it isnt and wont be until January.

agreed on 10th P, i've even been to visit them, but for WWE toys (in Barking) - pleasant & helpful people, with easy to fill in pre-order forms

Sorry to hear about ur bad experience with Forbidden planet.
I had excellant service with them at the end of August. I'd ordered
a Figure that my boyfriend would have died for, but then he dumped me a day or 2 before it arrived. I rang them up and they stopped the order, refunded my dad's credit card within 48 hrs etc.
Hope u manage to get it somewhere else. i'll keep my fingers crossed for u0 -
