Nook Touch Simple eReader - €40 [Via Littlewoods]

donnacha

Got the following offer from flubit:

What you would have paid at nook.com :
£29.00+ £0.00 = £29.00
The best offer our team created for you:
£26.36+ £0.00 = £26.36


Looks like my blackwells order is still credit checking, my littelwoods order is in middleton.

Flubit also accepted my blackwell link the other day, got an offer for £25.23. First time using Parcel Motel, I hope I did it right!
My blackwell order is still at credit checking, so I'm not expecting to get that one.

Just accepted my Flubit offer and cancelled littlewoods. I guess it might turn out that flubit don't actually have stock of this either, but fingers crossed.

Littlewoods are some shower of donkeys. Ordered Tues 30th, still 'processing' yesterday. Accepted my flubit offer and sent an email to littlewoods requesting a cancellation last night. They replied and told me I couldn't cancel because the item was already on the way to me. Checked my littlewoods account and the order shows up as 'cancelled'. Who knows what's going on with them.

Someone had the same problem about a page back. Thought they were getting three Nooks, now will be lucky to get one.

Looking to get two of these from Littlewoods (though it looks like people here are having issues), trying to get a discount code to work but they're all either invalid or restricted to "credit accounts" only. Anyone have one that'll work if I just pay directly through my credit card?

Alternatively if Littlewoods are really unreliable who would I be better getting it from?

Hard to know at this stage. I have a flubit order but I'm just hoping it's fulfilled rather than expecting it to be. Are they still in stock anywhere? Littlewoods show them as 'in stock' but I doubt they actually are.

I placed an order with Littlewoods late Friday. Being processed. Delivery due 25/5. Rang them up and was told everything was in order. Hard to know.

They are still available with johnlewis and currys in the UK. I am waiting for offers for both through flubit.

I don't want to commit to another one in case I get caught out.

I am half hoping once the bank holiday w/e is over I might get a dispatched email from Littlewoods.

Been sold out of John Lewis since Friday. Currys you have to collect it..

Didn't see that.

Maybe if you look for a quote from flubit they could get one from their supplier?

I've tried. I'm waiting on two more quotes now. I have 2 "Demand Rejected" and currently one "Demand Created" and one "Demand"? - Hopefully i'll get something out of it.

So is the general feeling that Littlewoods Ireland won't fulfill these orders?

I sent them 3 emails Friday asking this question but they only responded with generic email sayin if you don't receive this by your specified delivery date contact us again! ..... That's not what I asked?? Mine has been processing in warehouse for a few days now but others who ordered after me have had theirs dispatched ..... So to answer your question ????????????

I don't know. Order anyway. I think they are shipping them.

They did the same to me, not impressed with them at all. I emailed to cancel earlier and they told me it was too late to cancel because it had already been sent, at the same time my status changed from 'processing' (since Tuesday!!) to 'cancelled'. I don't think they know their ar$e from their elbow.

iPhone.

I had an order with Littlewoods too, cancelled it today as when I ordered the website said 'in stock' but my order when paid for showed an expected delivery date of 22nd of May!!

I got a reply saying they tried to cancel my order but it may still arrive and just to refuse delivery!! Got straight back on to them and tore them a new one - their response was totally vague, I mean what does 'we tried to cancel your order mean'?? Jesus!, either you did or you didnt?:rolleyes:

Anyway, upshot according to their latest response is confirmed as cancelled, confirmed as not charged!! I hope they actually managed this, lost all faith in them.

On a happier note (hopefully;) ) I sent an asda demand to Flubit and they offered me £25.09 incl delivery. Accepted that straight away, works out about 30 Euro delivered, can't argue with that, crossing my pinkys now

Jaysis.. I must be Flubit-ing wrong..

I got Request rejected for Asda too.. Because they don't deliver to Ireland.. (Unavailable for home delivery) Even with Parcel Motel link on their website.

I got rejected from Nook because they had none in stock and couldn't compare it. Which i suppose is fair enough..

The one I ordered from nook uk is taking the slow boat from utrecht to parcel motel.

How about trying a request with very.co.uk allyall

Same as Littlewoods.. I think i'll wait and see if Flubit come back with any offers. As i still have to wait for Nook to put the cash back onto my card.

Did they take cash off anyone else, and cancel the order?

What you think should I cancel my littlewoods order? Showing 22nd as a delivery date, that's more than 2 weeks! Never fancied them before, my 1st order, and I won't for sure!!

It's up to u , u might not even get it from them but I get stuff from them a bit and they usually deliver about a week before their delivery date I think they jus try to cover themselves with long delivery times

You might be lucky. There are some people here who had a delivery date of the 15th but have already had theirs dispatched. On the other hand my delivery date was the 10th but it still wasn't dispatched yesterday, so I cancelled it. The order in which they're sending them out seems to be completely random. Nice if you win the raffle, very annoying if you don't :mad:

Dear Tar

Asda Direct - they currently have them back in stock apparently. I phoned them up for free on skype and they confirmed on the phone they actually had stock and pushed my order through for me. Got the despatched email five minutes after the call, delighted. :D ......... and it's not even for me

EDIT - JUST SAW ON THEIR WEBSITE THE STOCK HAS SOLD OUT ALREADY!

The UPS site promises delivery by May 10 - but that's just to PM (NI). So it will be early next week before it gets to my PM address in Dublin

Mine went to Hatfield and has been resting there over the weekend,I just hope it doesn't go on a tour of Europe from there.

How on earth could it take them 4 days to deliver from Tamworth to Newtownabbey?! Is UPS using walking porters these days?

Mine says despatched on the 03/05 but there's no tick on the van picture, and it's still grayed out I'd u know what I mean...
Only one despatch notice so I'm not sure if it's gone or not....

My blackwell order was cancelled this morning. Flubit order is still processing for 2 days, no updates.

Mine has done the same thing. There was a green tick next to the image of the van on Friday but the tick has disappeared since.

If I accept an offer from Flubit for a Nook are they guaranteed to deliver?

Or are they likely to turn around in a few days and say that they can't source it?

They won't guarantee it at all, it's totally down to the supplier, they get you a good price that's about it.

I had one ordered through flubit too but am trying to cancel as they put my demand through AsdaDirect but it showed no update either for the last few days.
I saw online yesterday luckily enough that AsdaDirect got stock back in so I phoned them directly myself and managed to get one there and then yesterday, shipped five minutes after my call!! Flubit still not updated or contacted me about my request to cancel.

Anyone had their flubit offer dispatched yet?

Finally an update on my tracking, not sure whether to start worrying.
The little green tick is back next to the van now though.

I'm getting a weird error in the Flubit - Paypal Pop out. It's telling me there's an error "Error: Unknown Credit Card 98237324",
I logged into my paypal, and the correct card is attached to my account. Also, when i try to add that card from inside the pop out, it tells me that card is already attached to my account..
My card is an O2 Debit card, which i presume is causing the problem?

Anyone else have this problem?

Also Nook UK have still not refunded my money for the order they cancelled.. 5 days ago..

The amount of cráp i am doing to try and get this thing..

I got an offer from flubit this morning, well 2 actually. One for my "Very" (littlewoods) demand, and one for John Lewis. John Lewis came in €3 cheaper.

loyatemu

I'm seeing the "incorrect depot" message as well - WTF is going on at Littlewoods, or are they just stringing us along while they wait for stock?
