Anybody that ordered this, and has subsequenty found that their order has been cancelled, phone up amazon !!

I rang them on 02086369451 and managed to get an £8 gift voucher credited to my account.

I rang them before a cancellation email was sent, and then about 5 minutes after the call I recieved an email stating:

etc etc

Hmm...Me thinks somethings gone wrong somewhere.

It's worth phoning up, even if it is small compensation compared to a stupidly cheap hifi.

I've ordered one... do Amazon generally honour misprices?

Unfortunately they don't seem to. Last Summer I ordered a pedestal fan that was showing as £1.99 instead of £19.99 and although I received one e-mail to say my order had been accepted, another one followed a couple of days later saying the item was now out of stock. When I went to the page, it was showing as the correct price!

So that's how companies get around mis-prices, it seems. They just say it's no longer in stock.

I wonder why you think that companies should honour misprices? if you had listed an item for £1 instead of £100 in the paper would you accept it or tell people its a mistake? some one who has to type these prices in made a mistake Amazon havent tried to lie and give excuses they made a mistake end of, move on

Paid £19.99 and requested First Class delivery. Did not see this thread until after I had ordered so it's possible that I got in very quickly.

I received the same "Karazan e-mail" as others yersterday so thought my order has been cancelled. Checked on Amazon and saw this it was "Dispatched" but still was not convinced.

Hi-fi was delivered via Parcelforce this morning:j
