New item in catalogue out of stock - advice please

Hopelesswithmoney · 12 August 2005 at 6:24PM

I wanted to order a 2 door wall cupboard (621/1075) but I get the message:

Sorry, this item cannot be reserved for store pick up
Sorry, this item is currently out of stock for home delivery

This item is new to this catalogue so I'm wondering if I should wait for this to come back in stock or indeed if it will come back into stock.

Can any Argos pro's advise me please? Hope the above makes sense.

Its probably that they might be having supply or distribution trouble with it. If the item is new it might take them a while to sort out the supply of it. Try again next week. And keep trying but they should get some in. Do not know how long it will take but hopefully it will not be that long.

Or you could try ringing Argos direct and ask them about it and they will let you know. The number is on the back pages on the catalogue.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Dark_Forces, I thought it was odd that a new item would be out of stock so you are probably right about distribution problems.

I'll give them a ring as you suggested.

Thanks again

IF you want I can check and reserve one for you if it is available somewhere near you. Just PM me with the catalogue number and your nearest store and I will see what I can do.

Thanks Dark_Forces, that was really kind of you to offer but guess what, as if by magic, it's available to reserve this morning!

Thanks again,

Hopeless

No problem. If you do need reserving at a later date just let me know.

Not doing so well on this after all.

It's out of stock in every Argos store in North Wales/Chester/Ellesmere Port and not available for home delivery either.

Back to the drawing board.
