I agree, your more than entitled to point out anything at all this forum is for discussion as you said, it seems as always its the quite new members that enter the "lets sue them" stage I think unless any of us have a point of law they are certain on we should all maybe stop speculating as it just seems to muddy the water on these occasions
We agree then!!! Will let you know how I get on with that particular contract term if you are interested!!The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes
When they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you're always there
Like a ghost in my dream0 -

Once you lose your virginity there will be no stopping you.
All your morals will dissapear and you will become a misprice slapper;)
However no misprice is ever like your first one, you will relive the moment for years to come, just like other moneysaving experts who fondly remember the Kodak camera misprice, the dell misprices..................................
At best I might get the £15.20 that has tracked on Quidco0 -

Roses are red violets are blue

A misprice it was, which you all knew
but your hopes they still grew and grew
The phonecall has brought an end to the dream
so time to employ the legal team
I am in no doubt that it will go on for years only to eventually end in tears
so take my advice and do not groan
dial 08457 909090 and give the samaritans a phone0 -
JJ genuinely sorry you wasted a day waiting for it BUT it was worth it just in case you did land lucky - certainly worth a gamble i would say
I hoped at least a few would slip through the net but looks like it is not to be - i hope i get my money put back on my card soon then , i have not heard anything at all since i got my email BUT on a separate thread i do have loads of LUSH items so at least i can have a nice smelly bath to relax in and destress !donstermonster0 -

It is generaly accepted that the clause
WE RESERVE THE RIGHT NOT TO SUPPLY YOU AT OUR DISCRETION
is added to the T's & C's to justify non supply in cases such as they might think that it is being paid for by fraudulant monies or the item might be used to cause harm such as selling a nail gun to an irate customer or maybe even to someone who might endanger themselves such as selling a petrol chainsaw to a 95yr old to demolish his asbestos garage, if those cases were to reach court the judge would say they were justifiable and turf them out.
However it is not generaly accepted that the clause is there for Carte Blanche use to cover anything and everything.
There have been cases in the past where the consumer has managed to win the case and one of the most recent that springs to mind is the hard drives one and if it is ok I will quote from a letter that was posted on HUKD at the end of December ....A reader ordered a Thecus N5200 NAS (Network Attached Storage) device from Microwarehouse, which was advertised as being supplied with a total of 2.5TB storage (five 500 GB hard drives). The unit arrived but lacked the advertised drives. Two further replacement units also lacked the advertised drives.
After contacting the company the customer was informed the item had been incorrectly advertised and the price did not include the hard drives.
Microwarehouse asked the customer to return the item for a refund. Instead he consulted Watchdog and a solicitor. His solicitor advised that by accepting money for the advertised product, Microwarehouse had entred into a ligally binding contract under the Sales Of Goods Act, and the goods delivered must be as advertised.
Eventually the company relented and sent the customer the five missing disksIt's not just about the money0 -
The problem is that to a certain degree its how its interperated by whoever is going to decide whats fair.

It would certainly be an interesting exercise to test the case
Difference being they sent something to the customer so entering in to a contract. B and Q have not and will not send a "shed" that retails for £4000 for £3570 -
