    Just recieved the bad news
    Dear Customer

    Greetings from Amazon.co.uk. We are writing to inform you that the price of
    a recently ordered DVD title was incorrect at the time of placing your
    order, and we hope that we can clear up any misunderstanding.

    Despite our best efforts, with the millions of items available on our
    website, pricing errors can occasionally occur. In our Pricing and
    Availability Policy, we state that where an item's correct price is higher
    than our stated price, we contact the customer before dispatching. Please
    know that we will be canceling all affected orders. If you still wish to
    purchase this item, please place a new order online which will be charged at
    the correct price.

    Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused by this error, and
    rest assured that we will continue to make every effort to maintain the
    accuracy of all prices on our site. We hope you will find this an acceptable
    solution and look forward to serving you again in the future.

    Sincerely,

    Customer Service Department
    Amazon.co.uk

    Although I didn't order the Starwars boxset I did buy the Indiana Jones/monty Python ones in the last round of Amazon price mistakes. I opted for supersaver delivery and the sets had arrived when I got home from work today.

    I guess it doesn't matter which delivery option you choose. Maybe it's getting your order in quickly that determines wether you receive them or not.
    Ye'!, And!!?. How am I supposed to know?

    When I ordered the Indiana Jones Boxset last week I received this same e-mail on Friday night but the DVD's arrived by Royal Mail on Saturday morning. I also received a dispatch notice e-mail from them on Saturday morning (after it was supposedly cancelled) so don't give up hope yet.

    I have just received a dispatch notice for the Star Wars Boxset too so thanks again to the Original Poster - I now have two happy sons.

    I've just had a PM from someone who is under the misapprehension that this thread is locked. It isn't! :confused:

    The [CLOSED] in the title is there to denote that the offer itself is over. However you can still post to the thread.

    For future reference, when a thread is locked it has a padlock symbol in the left side of the thread listings and you will also be unable to post any replies to that thread.
