phoned back saying nope, management for bt and babs have only a small number of stocking coming into allocate unfulfilled orders, she was really curious as to who had just ordered 3 and seemed really annoyed by it and said she really needs to find out who placed those orders in the sales team if it happened as A/ there is no stock, B/ what theyve done they have no jurisdiction to do, she smelled something fishy and really wants to know who placed thoese orders. but im obviously not going to go giving info away. but anyway greebo, you sure you got 3 from bt ? :s theyre running around trying to find this and seem really worried.

Yeah, hope I haven't got my bloke into trouble!

It is true you can't place an order until they are on the system. My guy has the order inputted and ready to press enter as soon as stock hits the system and has kept my order on his screen open. Maybe he shouldn;t be doing that............

That's what he did yesterday for me as soon as the price drop came in for my order of 4.

He is 100% sure they have hundreds coming in. Hope he's right...............

On the other hand these 3 are for my boss and I have already have my 2 coming so I won't loose sleep over them if they don't ;)

Tempted to go into my local Argos (only a 5 minute walk from work) tomorrow morning and query their stock. As has been said here and as it says on their website reservations are only valid until the end of the next working day. So if they've got any reserved for other people tomorrow morning then they should be invalid and it's a bit unfair that people have reserved them for upwards of 1 week.
 
Yay! Someone on here mentioned popping into "you know where to come" store yesterday finding out they had more coming in today and I did the same yesterday. Gallows Corner store, 4 coming in already pre sold, went to Basildon having been told by the Gallows Corner staff they had 12 coming in with 9 pre sold. The staff at Basildon didn't believe they had 12 in as system was only showing 9 and sold. I persisted :D System finally showed 12 with 3 available so not being greedy I got 2. Picked them up this morning \o/

Genuinely chuffed to have finally gotten a proper bargain and no I'm not selling them. One for me, one for housemate :D :D :D :D

Now for a case/dock etc Fingers crossed I can get those without toooooooo much hassle! :rolleyes:
 
theres no point even trying to secure one on the bay either, if it wasnt bad enough to try and make 30 quid profit these scum are selling the 32gb for about 300 quid and suckers are buying them giving them 200 quid profit. good mind to report them all as im sure on the buy it now you are not aloud to trick people into paying so much for something if its just been publicly firesaled for 200 less. yeah its not illegal to try and make a profit but when its happening in such bulk then theres clearly a massive array or disshonour going on on there that they need to sort out.
