    quick question

    I placed an order for collection, I got a text with a reservation number and it said we'll text when the item is in store for collection.

    it's supposed to be there tomorrow and I've to travel for it, so what do they mean by their text? it's not there but will be?

    They will send you another text when its in store. Dont travel until they do. I have reserved items before which never then arrived to store although it said it will be available to collect between certain dates

    Seems the same on all sites too not just Argos. Maybe an update as it's had a slight makeover a couple of weeks ago and there was talk on here from the site dev about looking into it.

    I think that was checkargos.com, which is a different site.

    Stupid question, but when reserving an item that isn't in stock, do you need to wait for another email before you can collect it?

    As in, I reserved an item yesterday, it wasn't in stock in my store, but it said "Order now for collection from Tuesday-Thursday". So, can I collect the item today, or do I need to wait until another email comes in?

    They text you when it's ready for collection.

    Also bear in mind that if you didn't get a text/email with an actual reservation number, then it won't be coming in. Sometimes they allow you to reserve an out of stock item, when it isn't coming into stock.

    If you did get your reservation number, then you'll get another message when it's available in store.

    Thanks a lot! I got the reservation number so it should be coming in to the shop!

    Been trying to reserve a petrol hedge trimmer (either of 2 models) for the last few weeks on Argos.ie but no sign of any stock. The other day the listing was updated to show that it was reduced. Incredibly frustrating.

    Fossil smart watch. Dropped to lowest price (119e) as was previously looking at getting this at much higher price.

    Music player on it, is the biggest plus when compared to Huawei smartwatch

    Charging daily will break your heart, bad enough that most phones have to be charged daily too. You'll get decent smart watches that can last 5-7 days, and even some lasting 10-12 days with slightly less functionality for not much more than that.
