    Why order 5 and reduce everybody else's chance of getting 1


    If the chances of us getting them anyway are ZERO, whats the harm in ordering 5 just in case. You can't lower anyones chances further than zero.

    Theres no point in criticising one person for ordering 5, when the hundreds of people who have ordered just 1 have already drawn attention to the mis-price anyhow.

    (I ordered 2 btw :A before someone says I must be one of those who ordered 5)

    Does anyone remember a long time ago Dabs had a mis-price on a laser printer @ £1. (I think it must be about 2 years ago now).

    They did honour the price, but only if you ordered 1.

    If the chances of getting them are ZERO why order any at all then?

    ...and probably some of us are still ticked off with all the times Argos have offerd goods and reasonable reductions on their web site and then 'changed their mind' when people showed up to collect....and I'm talking about reasonable reductions here not offers like this which is obviously a misprice.

    Well thanks i ordered one on visa, so i presuame the visa card company will sort them. Argos terms and conditions might be what they require BUT if they violate trading standards policies they are on to plums .Any company can say what terns they ahve but for instance if they say " no refunds" its against trading standards and our consumer rights.I feel like ordering one for a charity or the old folks home, im sure they would love one.
