    Has anyone got their refund or would it be better to start a paypal dispute to hurry things along?

    Yep got the same. I doubt there was any actually on sale for the prices shown, they just use the 'limited stock in a sale' excuse.

    Ah well.

    I reckon it could be the luck of the draw - they will probably send out phones to a lucky few.

    If you're going by the order on the site, mine hasn't changed status even though I got the cancellation email.

    I'd bet it won't get past the paid and unpacked stage.

    Just checked the status of my order. Its still at "Paid & unshipped". I suspect this will change when the refund is processed, which should be late next week.

    I've got 2 emails today, confirming that my order has been received.

    But as you can see the orders sections has a value or 0.00 with no product in it.

    Maybe I'll get an empty box.

    Mine is cancelled too.No refund yet and I feel that the Euro amount refunded to my credit card will be less than the original amount due to dollar exchange. I've opened a PayPal dispute just to be sure I get refunded the full amount.

    I got a cancellation email on Wednesday followed by a Confirmed Order email this morning. The order status is showing as cancelled on the website, but the money has been taken from my account via PayPal.

    Some of these 'bargains' are more trouble than they're worth.
