Strange, trying since 8 this morning and constantly saying out of stock?

If anyone gets this and wants to put Windows 7 on it, you can get Windows 7 Professional from here for €49.69, if you're eligible.

I'd say it's rumbled!

My order is still showing as "order accepted" but I'm guessing any orders that have not yet been dispatched will probably be cancelled in true Littlewoods fashion.

[fingers crossed we get it.]

From previous experience with the fussball table, people who ordered after me got the table and people who ordered long before me didn't get it, so I don't think Littlewoods have any proper queue.

00sully

fmul9798

Well order accepted and payment taken from cc, so do they normally cancel at that stage ? What happened with their last 39 euro pc debacle ?

WeleaseWoderick

Ordered yesterday and got the confirmation email this morning. Status on the order had now changed to "Order Accepted" with a EDD of 17/02/10. Credit card hasn't been charged yet though...

Check with your CC company they may have only got an authorisation and not actually have taken the money yet.

Don't get you. Perhaps I'm very stupid.

Probably a silly question but I have a Dell desktop with a 19" Dell flatscreen, but the system is on it's last legs. If I bought one of these mini systems, would I be able to hook up my existing monitor to it or would it have a different connector?

Not to worry. If when I get my 10 I'll sell you one for a good price

I just checked with my own CC co. and Littlewoods have an authorisation on the account but have not actually taken the money, so I'm not expecting to get this.

j4vier

im quite confused really the way they are handling it..

if its a misprice? take it off or change it! why leaving it there sayin out of stock..

Sherifu

Didn't bother chancing my arm with this one. If I had ordered one i'd be pissed off at people ringing littlewoods. Good luck to those waiting.

Ticktactoe

I got the order accepted status but no further email saying dispatched or anything. Its 50/50 at this stage....

Nah, got the Littlewoods T-shirt! If you haven't had it dispatched by now, I'd put the chances at 0!

Ah jaysus now I'm really starting to worry :pac: All the same tell us if you get your one, DonJose, seeing how its already dispatched.

rash0001

Just off the phone to littlewoods. My order was still being processed not even accepted, I ordered on Tuesday! The girl said it was a misprice and the orders will eventually be cancelled. Queried about some being dispatched she said that even if it is with the courier they can recall it. Also that they can also inform the customer to return the product to them for which they will arrange collection or the customer will be charged full price! Asked about the football table episode, she said that she isn't aware of that but it all depends on how much a loss littlewoods is making, things like this are left to some (forgot the name) department to decide if they should recall the products or not... Finally after discussing back and forth she said she will add a 15 euro credit to my account for the inconvenience caused :mad: This isn't what I wanted but something better then nothing! Number I called was 018112222.

colferma

So youre saying theres a chance...

j4vier

i still dont understand why people bother ringin littlewoods?

it has been said over and over, the more they notice it , the less chances of anyone getting anything.
it doesnt make any sense
and no.. they cant charge the price they want after they sold it and you received it

Mac daddy

They made the exact same mistake several months ago with some compaq desktops, same story orders got accepted eventually when they woke up they just sent everyone a mail saying order was cancelled and coupon code for 2% off your next littlewoods order.

rash0001

If it does get cancelled... Look on the bright side - we are saving 189 euros in a recession Which is around 50 pints or or or endless possibilities

Ticktactoe

If they advertise it for 189 and you purchase it for that price, can they turn around and say sorry its actually 529? Is that not false advertising or something? Should probably post this in the legal forum!

Yes

I was told that no contract had been formed until the goods were actually dispatched and in some cases delivered and signed for. Even then if you have a credit account with them and take delivery of a mispriced product they said they can ask you to return it or else will charge you full price. No idea what law or what this is... same is the case if you use a voucher which you are not entitled too.

I have never bought from littlewoods before and so I don't know what is true and what is not.

I would be pretty confident that once they have delivered the product and charged you the incorrect price that the contract is sealed and they cannot at that stage try and change any of the terms.
