    Could very well be a price error but this and the destinys bounty boat are nearly half price in argos. No interest in either set myself but seems to be stock around anyways

    Thanks just picked up Technics Porsche 911 in Omni - great price and christmas pressie well sorted!

    I removed a three of the stores that are not in the city centre and replaced them with three random stores.
    Not ideal, but it is available in them outside Dublin, and orderable in the others.
    If you go to the Argos site and order it anyway, they should give you a date to collect it in your nearest store.

    The Technic Porsche 42096 is GBP 65 from Amazon.co.uk at the moment. After VAT adjustment that is EUR 74

    That's a good reduction - it was £105 this AM when I set off to Argos to collect mine - had Amazon discounted then, i'd have saved my fuel and ordered it there:D

    Gone back to £114 now - 1 day offer, perhaps those who ordered for collection at Argos will be honoured but my experience of similar offers was unless you got one from stock, not getting one.

    Some reduction whilst it lasted!

    Anyone want it?

    A few more Destiny's Bounty's available in Dublin.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,454 ✭✭✭mloc123


    I ordered a Destinys Bounty for collection in Argos, which is meant to be from today... has anyone ever used that before, do they email me to say it is now available?

    You should have received dates that it is available from and to, for collection.

    After that it goes back into stock if you haven't collected it.

    Yeah, I ordered it on Tuesday and it said that it would be in stock today until Monday. The store still shows no other stock... I am wondering do they email to confirm I can now collect it today. Do not want a wasted drive :)

    No. You can collect it until Monday, I think they email you when it has not been collected though.

    When you ordered, did you receive an expected date for collection AND a reservation number?

    Sometimes it looks like a reservation has gone through but you don't get a reservation number.

    I ordered one for reservation in Clonmel - the email I got has a reservation number, as well as the "Will be available for collection from" dates (Sat through Monday).

    I wouldn't be expecting a second email to be honest, but I might call before travelling, just to make sure they have it, and the latest price. AFAIK items that are reserved don't show up in the stock checkers, until they are released back into stock


  • Registered Users Posts: 892 ✭✭✭Fuzzy Logic


    If you included your phone number you get a text to say it's ready for collection. I got my text this morning


  • Registered Users Posts: 699 ✭✭✭Zebrano


    Ive a code for the porsche in ashbourne if anyone wants it

    To close out my question. It was ready to collect when I went up earlier. No further email or text apart from the initial one when I ordered it during the week.

    Argos also have the Technic Bugatti at ~270e which seems like good value too
