Yeah, I think because the OP ordered before 12, they were able to pack and ship. The balance will have to wait until Thursday at the earliest.

Very promising that his has shipped

Merry Christmas All!

Only reason I didn't order was because I'm broke! I'll wait until 1 if you get bored of it in the new year and buy it from Adverts

If you haven't a tracking number yet its unlikely you'll get it by the weekend, if at all.

As long as the money is taking and not pending he’ll get it

You won't know that for a few days. And even then, they can refund him that. It's an automated system. Money being taken means nothing.

He didn't say that the money was taken though?

No, if it’s taking then the contract is formed. If it’s only pending then they can cancel.

Must be up there among one of the best bargains of the year surely?

Was going to pull the trigger, but tbh, I am only very very recently after selling my mavic pro, and the very reason I parted with it was due to a lack of free time to fly it.

Quality drone by all accounts, fair play to anyone lucky enough to have bagged one.

tedpan

It's back in stock on the UK site. The wondering continues..

Not true.. Check consumer issues. This comes up Time and time again. They can still Cancel and refund.

Yea you haven't a clue what you're talking about I'm afraid. Until it's shipped you have nothing.

And because it's on HUKD there's a likely chance this will be cancelled given the massive numbers that would have ordered there.

I didn't see it on HUKD.

I don't think it was there unless I missed it but I did check.

bromley52

I didn't see it on HUKD either. There were a few posts around the £450 mark.

That’s the price advertised , the contract is formed when they accept and take your money

No.

Wrong.

Read more. The contract is formed when they accept and send out your product. Not when an automated system accepts your money.

Many retailers will honour the price as a goodwill gesture, if it's in their benefit to do so.

The automated system only puts a hold on the system. As I said it’s when they actually take your money is the contract formed. This is what the order is processed. They only take your money Just before they send out the item.

So in your account it’ll move from a pending transaction to a processed one

Sometimes we have to hold our hands up and admit we have made a mistake by unintentionally publishing inaccurate information on the site (e.g. the price, description or availability of a product you have ordered). In this instance we may have to cancel your order at any time, even if you have received your Order Confirmation email, and you will receive a full refund of any charges already paid. Refunds can take up to 5 working days to appear back into your account

McMurphy

Must've stumbled into the consumer forum by mistake.

RossieMan

This literally happens every time a pricing error comes up.

Means nothing unless they ship your order. They can refund you at any time. They can increase the price. It's up to you whether you accept it.

So no one got it?

one person who ordered early on Christmas eve (before 12pm?) claimed that they have a tracking number from a courier.

I ordered around 1245pm - got the processing mails and the money was taken from my account but nothing since. allowing for the post-Christmas restart but if I don't get any email by the end of tomorrow I'll assume that a refund is in the works and no dice.

Yep, I'm in the same boat. We may here something today, although probably tomorrow..

scottigael

Checked currys.ie and the new status for my order is "on hold" so not looking good..

bromley52

They know it's a pricing error and any orders placed will be cancelled. Those with a tracking number might get lucky.

It's at times like this you really wish it was Argos that you were dealing with

I'd agree but sometimes those tracking orders are pre-generated so even those might be cancelled. I ordered and the money has been taken from my account but the likelihood of me receiving one is very low imo.

basill

Email received "pricing error". Money to be refunded within 5 days.

scottigael

Annnd just got the cancellation email. Pricing error, oh well!

Cristobaal

I just received the email from currys about order cancellation due to a pricing error. No luck this time.
