    Well since they're now rounding pennies €99.99 is €100.

    If you're paying cash of course.

    Nope, it's still €99.99, you're just not getting your 1c change, thats all. Rounding doesn't affect the amount on the receipt


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,564 ✭✭✭✭OwaynOTT


    Can you add something to it to bring it over €100? Like a €1 book?


  • Registered Users Posts: 688 ✭✭✭Irishbrick


    I bought the snowspeeder today and got forty off, that rounding up counted for me anyways as it's 199.99 and I got it for 160!

    On the Argos site it says it's available to order for collection, however when I ordered it and got the email confirmation, there was no reservation number or any mention of the item that was supposedly reserved

    Same here. maybe they will send a number when item will be available on stock.

    I made a print screen with the price just to be on the safe side.

    If you didn't get the number in the email then it's not reserved.
    Did the page at the end of the reservation have a code?
    Said "Out of stock" for me.

    Likewise for me!

    Yep. out of stock.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,874 ✭✭✭SteM


    My reservation email has a reservation number, guess that might be a good sign.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,212 ✭✭✭Naid23

    Same as reserving. Just select your store and It gives you an option and you get the text email as usual.

    wont let me order it


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,558 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dades


    When you go to reserve it they give a message that says "Can be ordered for collection" on a date.

    At least in the Dun Laoghaire store they're offering that.

    When you proceed to order it says out of stock and there is no order reference generated.

    Guess they spotted that its an error and blocked the product until corrected.

    Well done to anyone and best of luck when collecting if you got an order reference generated.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,681 ✭✭✭Wolverine359


    Wow, I’d say they were updating the price to reflect a small discount, but somehow made the error of not putting the “1” in front of the “42.50”. Well done to people saving a whopping €100 on this set!

    They don't have to sell at that price as far as I know.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,648 ✭✭✭✭beauf


    I guess they won't honour it. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 301 ✭✭pcadhain


    Has anyone actually got a reservation number?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,866 ✭✭✭Jacovs


    I have an email with reservation number for between tuesday and thursday. Heres hoping.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,648 ✭✭✭✭beauf


    Yes I got a number. I wouldn't buy a big set like this otherwise. Hope it goes through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,564 ✭✭✭✭OwaynOTT


    I got an reservation email but with no reservation number


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,558 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dades


    I've a number for a pickup between Monday and Wednesday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,075 ✭✭✭✭Tom Mann Centuria


    Picked up the Star Destroyer today, despite the reservation email originally saying Pick up from Thursday, got a text message today. So went and got it.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.



  • Registered Users Posts: 8,763 ✭✭✭DaveNoCheese

    And they gave it for the stated price? Nice, congrats. Out of curiosity, what store was this?

    Kilkenny. Didn't have much hope tbh, wife went and got it, thought she'd be better at arguing the toss but wasn't any fuss or querying at all.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,208 ✭✭✭shotgunmcos


    Wow sweet and great spot! I remember [EMAIL="S@H"]S@H[/EMAIL] made a similar mistake when they did their star wars promos earlier in the year. Instead of taking €38 off the X Wing they listed it for €38. I regret not getting on at that price as it was fixed within an hour or so


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,212 ✭✭✭Naid23


    Just picked up mine there in Tallaght. Just went to the terminals and reservation came up for €43 so happy days!

    Delighted!

    I just got a call off them to say i cant get it for that price will have to pay full price. So idk is it still worth driving there to try on the kiosk or not.
    Would they have removed the reservation number or have it blocked so it wont work on the kiosk now?
