I'd be too busy posting pics of my lambo's and ferarri's in other media to even spot this tbh

 

[AKFM1]

[jenic]

Says that it will be delivered by Currys Home Delivery on my email

Just had a thought, i'm sure back when i started at currys they said DSG owned this in the induction.

 

[nufctoon]

if i pay by paypal using my dads credit card as i dont have one, and they say its over 1000 i can return it with no problems?

 

[C.J]

Yeah, DSG have a big share in Pixmania's parent company by the looks of it

In 2006, DSG international acquired a controlling 77% stake in its parent company

Taken from the DSG website

They won't ever charge you the full price (£1400), they'll either honor it, or refund you.

 

[AKFM1]

what delivery times they say?

 

[nufctoon]

im sooooooooooo tempted to do it but because its dad's card dont want to put him through any hassle he has enough of it from me :rasp: then again if i get it for that price he wont mind lol mmmmhhh what to do?

 

[C.J]

what delivery times they say?

My email states:

Standard Delivery in 5 working days, the delivery will be made by Currys Home Delivery, a partner company of Pixmania.

 

[Chesh]

Looolz im so not expecting mine in that time, or at all lol

 

[AKFM1]

im in your boots on whether to buy it or not

 

[C.J]

An email shall be sent to you shortly to confirm the date of the delivery. We will send you a 10 digit delivery reference

I'll have to check back in the morning, I'm never going to get up for work otherwise.

 

[nufctoon]

im in your boots on whether to buy it or not

from whats been said they'll either give it you or give your money back:S i dont know what to do dude, aslong as i get the money back i aint bothered

 

[AKFM1]

yeh me too, think im taking the plunge as its too good an offer to refuse

 

[ChrisPearson]

Just paid for one, think they are just trying to gather info aswell as trying to sell that pixmania card but its worth a try.

Has anyone had a delivery date sent yet?

 

[dk]

Lol, you've got rocks for brains if you think they are going to sell that amount of stock at such a loss, this has happened so many times before and they always fail to deliver, just like distance selling laws protect the consumer, when a contract is entered into when purchasing on a website protects the retailer.

It would have more chance if it wasn't publicised to millions on hukd and thousands of people place orders which sets alarm bells off lol, more chance of a volcano errupting in London.

 

[AKFM1]

my mate has used pixmania for loads of things and teles and said they are spot on

 

[Oggy997]

If I stumbled across this, would it fk end up on HUKD.

I'd order mine, get it, and rape the offer all week long on my own.

 

[AKFM1]

too bad the offer will finish by the time it gets delivered

 

[FiXX]

pixmania do this all the time, nothing is ever honoured.

 

[C.J]

Looks like the item has been removed from the site.

 

[.Simon]

Mine has just been validated!

just like in a retail store, if they remove the item from sale for that days trading they don't have to sell to anyone.

 

[C.J]

Mine has just been validated!

Same

Still not counting my chickens though!

Same, until I see a tracking number.

Shoiven:
Just rang them to check the status of my order and they said that they are cancelling my order and that the money had not been taken out of my account. I ordered the TV 5 minutes after it was posted on here so looks like nobody will be getting one...

the amount of people who ordered these would put them around the 500k loss for a nights trading, do people really think a company like that can afford to lose that amount of money in this climate, its probably a few months profit!

I 100% agree, but it's worth the risk.

 

[McBunny]

i will buy it off you for 300

 

[C.J]

lol, you can have the 50" it'll be replacing

 

[realnumber 1]

[C.J]

I'll do the same. PayPal give you the 45 days, so in 28 days time if nothing has arrived/refunded I'll open the dispute.

 

[.Simon]

.... and now cancelled.

Ah well!

 

[C.J]

Mine has still not been cancelled. They took my money for sure, as it was funds in my PayPal account, that are no longer there.

 

[ChrisPearson]

Mines not be cancelled nor validated. Looking back it was pretty stupid to try and buy it at that price

 

[realnumber 1]

just been cancelled, says the price was a misprint. oh well

 

[C.J]

just been cancelled, says the price was a misprint. oh well

Same, ah well, it was worth the risk.

Not sure whether to open a dispute now, or let them refund.

Nothing ventured...........
