Star Trek Misprices

    Note: They show up as normal price but add them to the basket and you'll be suprised. :) Worth a go, good spot OP.

    a good spot indeed. The order status is showing as "Item to be ordered from supplier" so we'll have to wait and see.

    The same goes for the Star Trek: Original Series seasons. They're priced at £69.99 but when you select to purchase them they show up in the basket at £16.99 each.

    worth a shot.

    If anyone wants to push their luck,
    £5 off when you spend over £35, use voucher code WT8747. Havent tried myself.

    Well I ordered the Deep Space 9 and got the confirmation email etc.

    Wouldn't hold out much hope though as their T & C's have a clear policy about erroneous pricing on their website

    My HMV order history is filled with only cancelled misprices. But still, always a chance one or two will get posted out before anyone starts to question it.

    Unavailable now... Ah well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 105 ✭✭Aziraphale


    The Star Trek Originals are actually listed as £16.99 for me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Aye, they are catching on. Got an error message earlier when trying to add to cart.

    Deep Space 9-Season 4 (listed as £84.99, put it in basket £4.99). Link.

    Just recieved this email, with the subject "Your order has been CANCELLED" (their capitalisation, not mine)
    Dear XXXXX XXXXXXX,

    We are writing to you to confirm that all or part of your recent order has been cancelled:

    Order no.: *******

    1 DVD TV SCI FI: AVERY BROOKS STAR TREK DEEP SPACE NINE (9): GBP 16.99

    Your order may have been cancelled for one of the following reasons:

    1) You have cancelled your order via your account on the HMV website.

    2) Your order has been active for 4 months, and has been automatically cancelled. We endeavour to obtain any items for a period of 4 months. However, after this period, it is unlikely that the goods will be received from the suppliers, and to avoid keeping you waiting indefinitely, we will cancel your order.

    3) We have been unable to obtain authorisation for payment to dispatch your order for a period of 48 hours. You will have been informed in a previous email that we were having problems, and will have been asked to contact us.

    If you have not cancelled this order yourself, or your order does not meet any of the criteria above, please do not hesitate to contact us.

    ...and please don't call to our offices wielding a plastic Klingon Phase Disruptor. :D

    Bummer, though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 105 ✭✭Aziraphale


    Cancelled mine too. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,228 ✭✭✭Kramer


    No cancellation e-mail received, yet & order(s) still open im my account status.

    Probably cancelling them in rotation but I'll keep an eye on them anyway.
