First at 1.24am this moring I got this:

I'm not going to let it rest. AFIK once they take your money, it's a contract they are obliged to honour.

Of course they could just keep saying stock is never arriving and offer a refund.
 
Well we can only hope 6970 comes out is faster then the 580gtx and costs £299..... ofc this will never happen esp the price time thease companys profitierr from them we will be lucky to see them at £400.
 
It's taken them nearly 5 days to notice their 'misprice' after multiple phone calls confirming it was correct and large volume of orders, the fact that they claim they have only just noticed shows extremely bad management of their order system. May be worth sending a group claim to them for all those who had their order cancelled ...

Either they got the message when gibbo ordered 100 or when they tried to dispatch greebo's and the system said no!
