GazzaGSi Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Looks like they're honouring them for some reason. I'd say 30+ have been offered there's at HUKD's. Checked the city link website/tracking info and its coming tomorrow between 7:30 - 17:30. good job im off work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaGSi Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Checked my account and no payment taken yet. Petrol I put in this morning has shown up though... What a bizarre episode Maybe its just taking time for amazon to process it all. Although this is interesting: Once an item or an order is cancelled, you'll receive an e-mail to confirm the cancellation. Cancelled orders no longer appear in your order history and you have not been charged for it. Please be informed that if the order is cancelled before it enters the dispatch process no charge is made. I received cancellation and then dispatched email later. Maybe the cancellation email cancelled the payment and its needs to be reauthorized by the card holder for them to claim the payment again from the bank? As far as I new the order was cancelled. Surely they cant take payment after telling me they've cancelled??? If I re-ordered then ok. But as far as I new it was cancelled so went elsewhere to buy one... Just doesnt seem right.. Weather they take the payment or not I wont complain. Its a bargain as it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseys Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Some people are just cheeky. We have a classifieds database at work where people put up adverts for sale / wanted goods. Just seen this: Headline: Xbox Elite 120GB Brand New with 12 month warranty! Main text: RRP £189.99, will sell for £160. Highstreet/Play.com have it at full price so good offer! Is sealed and brand new with 12 month warranty. Includes controller. Can add new controller (£20 - save £10), and Pure or Lego star wars for £10 each (save £10). Will make a great xmas present even for yourself! Any questions feel free to ask... Looks like a familiar package eh? And I'd love to see them trying to talk to the retailer for a repair under warranty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 £127 is still a rip off for an x-box! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'd love to see them trying to talk to the retailer for a repair under warranty Definately. Why would the warranty be a problem? I'd luv to see how he'd sell Pure or Batman as they are in a combi case Some at HUKD's order acouple, some even more and received their's in 1 whopping box today. Just annoying for those who's got cancelled. Still do not know why somemade it and others not. God knows how much amazon have messed up... £127 is still a rip off for an x-box! £127 for a jasper elite, 2 controllers & 2 games. Will do me nicely Always been PS3 and still am but I still couldnt hold up on this deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaGSi Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Sorry, didnt mean money wise. Just meant the entire saga from the start. Wonder how many other glitches in the system there is knocking around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseys Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Definately. Why would the warranty be a problem? I'd luv to see how he'd sell Pure or Batman as they are in a combi case Well a warranty normally requires a proof of purchase (if you've got a cancellation surely amazon have voided that bit?). Yeah you're possibly gonna have a credit card transaction - has anyone actually been billed yet? I don't even think you can go to the manufacturer for the 2-3 year period under the sale of goods act as again, potentially the proof of purchase issue. Still a good bargain, wish I had managed to get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzaGSi Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I got an invoice in the box it was all sent in. Would that be classed as proof of purchase? If so, I myself would be ok. However, if the dude selling that one on for a profit has to send the amazon invoice to the new buyer surely they'd be p!ssed at seeing how much he got the lot for. Some people even got it for less than £70. Originally they requested super saver delivery, after thinking to change it to first class and pay the extra couple of quid to maybe get the 360 early before amazon noticed the additional couple of pound added in their order for 1st class made another reduction of around £60. Work that one out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
