    Would this camera be good. I'm looking at getting a good camera after Christmas and this price is what I'm looking to spend

    Same here. I wonder if it's only available at that price on Stephen's day and you have to go into the store. Although I just saw an ad on TV for Currys UK saying that sale has started now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭Technoprisoner

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭liam7831

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭Technoprisoner

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 244 ✭✭Huell


    Is there an actual law where they must honour things like this?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,272 ✭✭✭kc66


    Its a pity Declan is not around. He would sort it out!

    No. They have t&cs normally to cover things like this happening.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭liam7831


    Have seen it happen before and then can cancel the orders if they make a mistake. I have one reserved so maybe they will honour it in the festive spirit :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭percy212


    Darn. 179 was a great price. Just missed it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭Technoprisoner


    ive got 5 conformations saying it is paid for and will be delivered

    I have one reserved and email confirmation of same at €179, I really hope this doesn't fall through!!

    As in you have paid for 5, or you have received 5 separate confirmation emails?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭liam7831

    That means nothing if they don't want to honor it at the incorrect price


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭Technoprisoner


    5 different emails confirming my purchase the first at 20:18 and the last at 20:42

    i dont know if they ahave taken payment but i imagine if they did that they would of entered into a contract and would have to honour it

    Nope. Not until it's despatched.

    From Currys T & C's

    Our contract after you have ordered

    Firstly, don’t panic if you make any mistakes during your order, you can correct any input errors right up until you confirm payment.

    Once you’re happy everything is correct and you’ve submitted an order you’ll be given an Order Reference Number and details of the products (and/or services) you have ordered. You’ll then receive an email headed ‘Order Acknowledgement’ recognising receipt of your order. We will then send a further email headed ‘Order Confirmation’ and this is when our contract with you begins. This second email also lets you know how your products will be delivered to you. If we have to cancel all or part of your order for any reason, we will email you to let you know.

    Sometimes we have to hold our hands up and admit we have made a mistake by unintentionally publishing inaccurate information on the site (e.g. the price, description or availability of a product you have ordered). In this instance we may have to cancel your order at any time up to the point we send you the product(s), even if you have received your Order Confirmation email, and you will receive a full refund of any charges already paid.

    Wrong. A confirmation indicates they have entered into a contract. He was invited to treat at a price(albeit wrong) and confirmed his intention to buy and they confirmed their intention to sell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,307 ✭✭✭Technoprisoner


    i will wait in hope that i get it at the price


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭percy212


    How about sharing some of those confirmations? Tis the season!
