I have no idea what this is but surely it can't be the boxset that sells between £70-£90

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gundam-Wing-...7582280&sr=1-1

For £2.93 I'm taking a shot at it to see what turns up

Your asda link has gone 404 so I'm guessing that is was incorrectly priced and then pulled once they found out about the mistake.

Which are on amazon marketplace which even I wouldn't touch with a ten foot bargepole.

Afro25 · 15-07-2009, 03:34 PM

I'll update this on whether i get them or not then

dannyc9 · 15-07-2009, 06:47 PM

i ordered a couple more i think we will be ok because they have a good feedback http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/help/sell...A10EH3JOPSD1JF
and we can claim our money back anyways

dannyc9 · 16-07-2009, 07:06 PM

i just logged on to the website and it says out of stock full refund given just waitin for my money but the one i paid 2.93 for has been posted

Afro25 · 16-07-2009, 08:28 PM

I havent heard anything yet, which seller was that on amazon?
And the one i ordered from asda has been picked, just waiting to be despatched so that will be tomorrow

dannyc9 · 16-07-2009, 08:38 PM

selectcheaper .. and my asda is still to be picked so i know that 3 gundams aint comin

Afro25 · 16-07-2009, 10:14 PM

I got the email from selectcheaper too, stupid thing is yesterday i emailed them saying their site says they have none in stock but amazon says they do, then they sent the generic "We have recieved your order and payment" email... Idiots...

And yeah, i got one from asda earlier saying they are having trouble with stock for the set...

I kinda expected this to happen, but it was worth a try anyway lol, oh well... Just means we gotta pay proper price

well asda i never got a gundam there and i have one on the way from scotland select cheaper i emailed them aswell about stock cos they had it on play... all but one from them now have been picked and ready to post so i dont really know whats going on

Afro25 · 16-07-2009, 10:43 PM

My guess is that they had so many orders coming in at once that the site(s) couldnt update the stock amount fast enough to stop over ordering... So its first come first (and only) serve really... I've heard nothing from Lovefilm about it (ordered from there too), and nothing from asda about Hack//Sign, Patlabor and Stratos yet... Anything your end?

dannyc9 · 17-07-2009, 06:57 AM

from asda no but it usually takes a while with them
selectcheaper emailed me a member of there customer service to say sorry bout the stock level and they are refunding money as fast as possable but it looks like i have 2 gundams coming from them

happosai · 17-07-2009, 11:58 AM

I ordered one each of .hack, Patlabor and Stratos 4 on Wednesday -- I've just had an e-mail saying that they can't fulfill my Stratos 4 order at the original price (I'm free to reorder it at the current price of GBP 16.43, apparently...). No word on the other two items yet.

BTW, on-line stores (and physical ones) don't have to honour any orders made for items that are mis-priced -- they can legally withdraw the item from sale and refund any orders placed. They sometime choose to honour orders at the wrong price, for PR reasons, but certainly don't have to.

My Gundam Remastered collection turned up today. All episodes re-masterd, limited numbered on the bottom of each box set, concept art book, free delivery.... £2.93. Is that the best deal ever? It is one of the nicest collections I have seen.

I also ordered Stratos 4, Patalbor and .Hack. Stratoes and Platabor are due for shipping on the 20/07 and .Hack is due to be sent next month all at £2.93. Haven't had an email from them saying they've cancelled it.

Happosai is right in saying they don't have to honor sales like this. However when I was looking originally for the deals out of the list of online shops it gave me I figured Asda were the most likely to send the stuff out even though someone has made a huge balls up.

dannyc9 · 17-07-2009, 08:48 PM

i got one for 2.93 today aswell whoop and a refund on one of the others
