Lads.. lads.. lads!

Please read up on the facts regarding misprices and Consumer Law before spouting crazy claims.

What you need to remember is that Littlewood's have their arses well and truly covered when you ticked the checkbox to 'Agree to their Terms & Conditions' when placing the order.

They don't have to honour it.. and it's practically a given that they won't - imagine how much they would lose.. and in this "dark period of recession too!

I don't want to be hearing anymore mis-informed statements regarding this situation. Let this be the end of it for the night!

Nice big read here for people interested in how a case similar to this panned-out!

Just bought one, friend bought three! Can't see this working out! If you search littlewoodsireland for "mini desktop" it throws up another version with similar specs and 19" screen for 69 euro also, strange! Worth a shot though!

Thanks OP I just tried ordering one also, we'll see what happens..

Terms & Conditions State:
Quote:
4.2 All items are subject to stock availability. In the event that we are unable to supply the goods, we will inform you of this as soon as possible. A refund will be given on request where you have already paid for the goods.
My guess is they will come back with this excuse/reason and offer a refund.

Gave it a go as well. Probably won't honour it, but worth a shot ordering.
