    Got 2 emails confirming order. Got 1 cancellation text, and have a missed call from Argos's UK number.

    Is that 000044335 number? Just saw it now, no message left on landline and no text email to my mobile phone.

    I'll expect my watch soon so 😂

    There was a great PS4 console bundle offer available on Argos a couple of days ago but I cant seem to find it now. It was a PS4 500Gb + FIFA 18 + GT Sport for €249.99.
    Does anyone know if this deal is available anymore?

    Seems to have been a hike in prices over the past few days, looking at some of the fitness gear and it's all gone up.

    That's why I love checkargos and camelcamelcamel for Amazon. It's great to see how they increase the price before a sale. Wouldn't have been as noticeable if it wasn't for those sites.

    Check the Argos UK site and you'll see this "NO LONGER AVAILABLE
    Sorry, we don’t stock this item anymore. We might have something similar though – keep shopping to find out"

    Same would apply here but its just they arent as open about it.

    They have been priced at 25 for weeks on uk site hence they sold out, they were 169 here yesterday, the shops are full of them, my local had 5 in stock and few weeks ago when they reduced on UK site I checked stock levels in Ireland and all shops were full of them. Have been keeping an eye on em

    It is a pity. I ordered 50 to put them in my Christmas tree so I could have a flashing tree when someone called me....

    seriously though, you have to call their Customer service to track your order?

    I've been tracking the ps4 deals and I never saw the one you mention. I saw the 500gb plus Fifa 18 and the 500gb plus gt Sport. I would have bought the one you mention straight away if it was there. Ended up getting the star wars one 500gb 249.99

    Pretty much yes, can’t reserve online so I took a spin to Mahon point on the off chance, they might reserve on the phone

    Ditto......
    If they are refunding the money- it can take 5-7 working days to return it to you (depending on which bank you're with). I had no idea of the going rate for the huawei watch when I bought it- it just seemed like good value to me- if they give me my money back- fine, nothing ventured, nothing gained- but if they're not going to give it to me- it would at least be polite to let me know what its not going to be shipped. Not sure how/why some people got txts, e-mails and phone calls cancelling- and others, myself included, got nothing from Argos on this- whatsoever.

    It's there a place to view products and sort by discount on Argos?
