    Noticed this on HUKD earlier:

    Here's the link to the deal: Misco.co.uk

    Targus Micro Webcam for £2.99, including VAT and free shipping.

    Amazon has it listed for approx £22.

    I ordered one with Dublin address and BT1 1AA as post code, and just now got a dispatch confirmation. That is not to say that it will get here or that this is not an error or that they are in stock etc, but will report back if/when I get it!

    Go it, going to order one.

    It wont let me input the address manually:(. I can put in name and house number but unable to type in boxes below that... strange.

    Link on HUKD won't work for me and when I went directly to the Misco website it was listed as 25 pound. Guess the offer has expired early.

    Added a link to the first post - and using that link it still comes up as £2.49 before VAT for me.

    Won't work for me for some reason. Get a "Problem loading page" error. Oh, well.

    Try again, it works. It worked for me after couple of tries.

    Hope I get this one :)

    Thanks OP.

    I can't see how they will fulfil all the orders though - they must be getting absolutely hammered with the orders since this appeared on HUKD this morning. Let's see how this goes.

    PS: I paid with Paypal, just in case if something fishy is going on..


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,353 ✭✭✭coldfire1x


    ^^ Did the same, paid by paypal.

    Got the order in using firefox, must be some issue with ie. Paid with Visa, was a warning saying paypal address must match delivery address so I opted for the Visa route. Its only £2.99 it wont break the bank. Now to wait for the cancellation email :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,442 ✭✭✭MickShamrock


    I paid using Paypal too. Just checked my email and have received a dispatch confirmation email! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,292 ✭✭✭positron


    Can you see if it says 'back ordered' on that email? Someone at HUKD mentioned it. It's not on the mail I got though. Anyway, they indeed dispatched it, now it will be interesting to see if BT1 1AA will get it to Dublin or not! :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,771 ✭✭✭pissed


    Just got my order confirmation too.

    My email does not say "back ordered". :pac:

    Thank you for your recent order with Misco.co.uk. The order has been despatched.

    So much for on back order :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,442 ✭✭✭MickShamrock


    Finally when I receive this I can go on Chat Roulette! :pac:

    Thank you for your recent order with Misco.co.uk. The order has been despatched.

    Now I hope I get it :D

    +1.

    Their site shows it's still in stock! They have this disclaimer there as well:
    This is an exclusive offer valid 48 hours only, from Monday 13th June 2011 until Wednesday 15th June 2011 9am, strictly whilst stocks last. Free delivery is only applicable to the Targus webcam with microphone detailed in this email and is limited to a maximum purchase quantity of 1 per customer.

    They probably have at least a 1000 orders to fulfil today, I can't imagine they would have that much stock, but may be they do, and may be it's their way of getting people familiar with their service and offerings.

    PS: And someone at HUKD is claiming that these are actually definitely on the way with RoyalMail today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,353 ✭✭✭coldfire1x


    Its great news if they are really on the way.

    Was just reading some of the comments on HUKD and some greedy feckers tried to order 2 :D but got calls from customer services cancelling the second. Maybe our BT1 1AA County Meath/Dublin/Ireland post code worked :p.
    Being sent by second class post within the UK ..... fingers crossed


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,232 ✭✭✭loopymum


    Just ordered one now too


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,745 ✭✭✭funnyname


    Fingers crossed it gets here
