Currys selling twin pack bundle for £42.50 - which is cheaper than the single unit they are selling at £44.99.
Happy shopping.

Really pi***s me off seeing all these comments about bought X going to sell them on and make a profit. This site is for getting a great deal. But how can people if you take them all just to make a profit.

I guess that's where the £42.50 came from then, it was meant to be £42.50 for each one in the bundle, not for the two together. :smile:

This is obviously nothing like the original offer, but you can currently get two from Amazon for £85 using the promotional code DOT2PACK
You're welcome :wink:

Code for that offer which was giving discount is now removed from system and it says in screen not allowed to sell

Doubt it. "Not obliged" is the wording in the staff memo so clearly they're aware of it and aren't going to change their position. Guess this is a good way to tell whether a store deserves our future business..
knack
18 Dec 16#781
That's because it's up to the individual store. They've been given the go ahead to honour one bundle per person but it's management discretion and they have no obligation to do so.

email from customer service
As part of the Customer Support Team, your correspondence has been passed to me to investigate and respond.
The Amazon dot bundle pack was advertised for £42.50 on our website, this was an error and was rectified as soon as possible. Due to the error any orders that were placed and not already dispatched have been cancelled as per our terms and conditions of sale.
I can see that your order has been dispatched and is currently with Royal mail, as this is already out for delivery the deal will be honoured.
If there is anything else I can help with please let me know.
knack
17 Dec 16#774
Yeah was definitely £40 there as Chris says. Though there was a Prime Now code which meant you could get it for £30 at Amazon.

From currys -
Hi Victoria,
This was a pricing error that was noticed yesterday evening and removed from sale at the earliest opportunity. Our colleagues in store have been advised that sadly we wouldn't be able to honour any reservations and tried to contact all affected customers prior to visiting the branch.
We have however agreed to honour the sale of any customer who has already made payment via our website, which I believe you were alluding to. I offer my apology once more for any disappointment.

Ok, just picked up three bundles from PC World.
If anyone is wondering whether they will get theirs, this may be good news.
I ordered three sets pretty quickly yesterday, click and collect without a set time. Today, I read all the info about honouring one set customers only (sometimes) etc., and thought that I was out of luck and was just waiting for my cancellation email.
Then at about 3pm, an email arrived saying it was ready to be picked up. The good news in doing it this way is that it is simply a package that I collected. The chap behind the counter asked to confirm that they were Dots, but there was no money amounts on any paperwork and so nothing was flagged up.
So – if you haven't heard anything yet, it may be god news.

well the email says different, it clearly says when putting them through don't put them through as a bundle, put through individual with the second as a promotion discount. that email arrived instore this morning. it does say not obliged so maybe they are just being awkward or using your reserve number for staff

my wife just went into the Dunfermline branch as unbeknown to me she had reserved this as a surprise Xmas present for me and I had done the same for her and she managed to pick up both orders just by asking (we admitted what we had done when we both got a cancellation phone call seconds apart last night) no arguments. she said the guy at the till couldn't believe the price and was happy to put it through for her.

Got another two at lunchtime, go in armed with the screenshot. The likelihood is that they won't have the bundle. Insist on the deal and do not relent until two individual ones (they have plenty marked up around £48) are offered to you at that asking price :wink:

16 Dec 16#740
So, like a business, they'll register the Sale and pay taxes right?
It's not business at all. If these people were any good at business, they wouldn't be scabbing around on HUKD for stock to sell.

Me too, it has it's own speaker but not the best, easy to pair with any Bluetooth speaker in any room.

The irony is that its those who do spend most of their days on their backsides who were able to get to the stores early. This was posted at a time that most people were at work and couldn't make it to stores.
Not meaning to offend anyone who did collect early, just had to point out the irony to Sharpharp :laughing:

There is only one rule here and it's he/she gets off their backside and goes to collect the goods before any procedures have reached the stores wins.... You know that at this price, sitting back and expecting it to turn up a few days later via the post has little or no chance.
caverncity
16 Dec 16#662
I didn't storm just expected not to get it. I just explained that the email does say not obliged but if putting through it can't go through as a bundle but as a discount. Ask them to read the email as it does clearly say only customers who ordered one bundle. I got mine an hour ago. Maybe they are hoping customers will not bother trying. I also mentioned I know it is an error but HO are honouring only one and tell them other stores are honouring it

I remember OH in Tesco having it out with a Manager about a mispriced video game that he didn't get on click and collect and others had honoured but he was adamant he couldn't have it.
As I say it depends how far people wanna take it,good luck with it though,hope you get sorted.

Just collected mine, he did have an email from head office saying tell customers due to error can't have it but when explaining that it's only customers who bought more than one. He read it again and it said not obliged but if putting it through don't put it through as a bundle put it through as a promo discount and anyone with more than one order don't get any. So if you ordered one bundle you will get it

Well I just got a voicemail this morning to say sorry but there was an error and they wouldn't be able to honor the order. They were apologetic and said hope I don;t waste a trip down which I thought was fair enough. Its a shame I should have gone last night but couldn't get there on time.
Never mind you can't win them all. Well done to those who managed to get them and thanks to OP for spotting, don't think I've ever seen a deal get that hot so quick :smiley:

Got a call this morning saying that my order, along with all others, were being cancelled in line with their terms and contract. The deal was supposed to be "Save £5 when you order 2"
An email from head office has instructed each branch to contact everyone to let them know.
Well done for everyone who managed to make it to a branch last night or got them sent out in time.

When the notification arrives you can click the dropdown arrow to stop receiving notifications but it sounds like you've ticked the box to "Receive email updates for replies" which you'll find on the comment box between the box and the POST COMMENT button. Also double check the SUBSCRIBE button under the description isn't selected either.

So if only ordered one it's still worth going in to store and mentioning the staff portal (if it exists) and see what happens. I received a phone call but I didn't ask what store as ordered one from two stores.

Went to collect my reservation for the special priced bundle but the rude 'customer services agent' who was working on the till (reminding me it was his job to keep customers happy) refused to honour it. After half an hour of holding my ground, showing both him and the even more rude 'duty manager' the evidence from the website screen grab, my reservation email, the actual transaction sheet they had printed out for £42.50, they still wouldn't budge (even walking off to joke about it). I asked to speak to the head office or customer services while I was still at the till, and they eventually conceded to let me use their landline to phone the premium number and spent another half hour on hold. By which time, the store was about to close and I was asked to leave. Absolutely disgusting customer service and I'll be chasing again today, if for what it's worth to complain. We've spent quite a bit of money at this store but I won't be buying from any of this retail group again.

Ha. I didn't think that far ahead...I was too busy smirking at the rude staff member who thought getting a manager to tell me they wouldn't honour it would work in her favour. Unfortunately the manager had a bit more sense.
Give it another try. The article has 3 bullet points and the first states anyone ordering more than 1 shouldn't be honoured, second one says anyone with an order of 1 and isn't happy with being told it won't be honoured should get it honoured to keep "a good customer" and the third was that any staff orders should be cancelled with immediate effect so don't try use a staff discount
Biggunspaul
15 Dec 161#596
So if this site is about helping people save a bit of money (which it is),then why don't you post a deal to help others ?
I'm not condoning people buying up loads to sell,but it's a bit rich coming from someone who only takes from the site themselves and doesn't contribute deals to help others.

For all of those who ordered as they actually wanted this at a good price, I hope you manage to collect them ok. For all those greedy selfish morons who stocked up just to sell, I hope you fail miserably and don't get them or sell them. People like you ruin it for everyone else. The whole point of this site is to help people save a bit of money and bag a bargain, not allow greedy idiots to make a quick buck. It shows how selfish and pathetic you are that you greedily grab all the items and then sell them back higher to people who miss out. Greedy idiots.

£43 is still cheaper than Amazon, not £10 more. And it looks like you have amended your price anyway, so presumably you must have agreed with my theory.

It does say there they must honour it provided you only reserved one.

You actually quoted your quote , you didn't say roughly. As a guideline on your comment though, MyHermes are probably inline with the cheapest. Up to 1kg - £2.75 Insurance up to £40 - £1.30 - £4:05.
I'm not really picking an argument here, just saying there isn't really much profit to made unless people are foolish to pay £39. Personally I'd pay the extra fiver for a proper warranty.
Good luck with it though. (no sarcasm)

Sometimes we have to hold our hands up and admit we have made a mistake by unintentionally publishing inaccurate information on the site (e.g. the price, description or availability of a product you have ordered). In this instance we may have to cancel your order at any time, even if you have received your Order Confirmation email, and you will receive a full refund of any charges already paid.

The ones that people are collecting in store, have these been reserved or are they off the shelf?
His calculations are wrong, profit would be £9.18. I would guess less than that as well as most people wouldn't want 2nd class which is all £4 postage will cover. Then there's the actual fee of £39. I guess you are reliant on the mugs out there to buy it as anybody in there right mind shouldn't buy one of these without a warranty to save a fiver.

Went to pick up and they were just off the phone to CS to find out what was going on (probably surprised by all the orders). CS told them not to honour it. Tried to argue the case with them but no luck.
The staff were friendly and apologetic at least..

But I do not know for how long they will have stock. I heard couple of people talking about this so I guess they bought all. But in the end I got 4 bundles. Initially I bought 2 bundles for £85 but I have back for additional 2 so got spare ones if you want.
If you can collect these from me before 8pm I am happy to sell 2 bundles to you for same price I paid so £85 but because I paid with card I will not be able to give you receive.

If people were still ordering single units would still be flagged, with real time stock systems these days it would instantly show as a peak in sales and kick a number of systems in to action and probably trigger a reorder of more stock for example. Makes it way easier to see mistakes and stop them quickly, especially as many systems now automatically send shipping orders to warehouses

If Amazon have any sense, after seeing this thread, they should match the offer. Taking a hit on a few at this time of year to get them to market would surely help future sales as more people will be exposed to them at Christmas.
Have you seen how many people are currently online on here? Take what..5% of them buy one? They were going to notice in the exact same amount of time regardless of the amount purchased?

By all means take legal advice, only stands when an item has clearly been sold in error and you can prove that the purchaser knew of the error before purchase and since its all printed here and the price is less than half the price of the single unit it wouldn't be difficult to prove. However if you refused they would have to take you to court for £40 which probably would not be worth it!

Just an update.
I called Currys CEO and asked him if this was a genuine deal. He said "everything on our site is a genuine deal." I replied, "great, but just to obtain 100% clarification, you are selling one for more than the twin pack duo, which would make Currys a huge loss in revenue." He then realised the mistake, thanked me, and replied he was about to delete the offer from the site. He was about to hang up on me, but I said I have a followup question. He was frustrated, but allowed me to continue. I asked what would happen to orders that had gone through. He again thanked me for reminding him of all those orders that would have gone through, and said he was would immediately phone all stores and tell them not to honour the reservations at any cost and would also cancel all online orders. He hung up after promising me an individualised 50% off any product discount code.

Don't worry. I phoned the CEO, Sebastian James, he was thankful for me alerting him to this glitch.
As a thank you he is letting me keep 10 of the 16 orders, but they will be cancelling everyone else's orders, and have placed all stores with active reserve and collection reservations on a 24-style lockdown.
We spoke at length and basically this is a deal they were hoping to run in the days leading up to Christmas but the price had not been re-adjusted for the Brexit currency devaluation. They'll be re-activating the offer soon for £142.50.

Ha ha - its says in all contracts that a contract is not formed until its accepted by the business and the goods have been shipped, also it is perfectly legal to ask you to return a mispriced item or ask you to pay the difference if you wish to keep it in cases where the deal it to good to be true and you have taken advantage of a given situation

If anyone tried to collect from stockport, ask for 'Lee.TheManager'. He loves to explain to customers in a reasonable and not at all arrogant way that they have wasted their trip due to a mistake by the company he represents. Better still, do it about 10 minutes before closing, as delaying him leaving seems to make his general cheerful and happy to help disposition even better. Give that this is a misprice rather than a price promised by their customer services, I imagine he will be even more determined to give you a happy customer experience. I got the impression his staff thought the same of him as i do too.

No, shops offer a service. Warranties, returns, advice etc. And they register the sales and pay appropriate taxes.
People buying to put on eBay are literally offering nothing, All they are doing is taking money off people.

By that logic, shop owners are parasites. As they buy from the cash and carry for lower than they sell.
I don't bulk buy to sell on, mainly because I can't be bothered with the hassles of having to then resell them, but people really need to chill out and stop getting so worked up about things like this.
caverncity

Given that the bundle price is exactly 15% off the single price, I'd speculate they were trying to match the Amazon deal of £15 off when you buy two, and managed to set it to 15% off the single price instead.
I don't think this is getting honoured somehow.

Pretty much as these don't do anything much more. But they're good for imagining that they're some new fangled whizzy science thing that's not already been thought of. Depends how easily you're parted with money I suppose. I mean it's the equivalent of a Bluetooth device for your car that tells you how much petrol you have left.
Or you could just look at the petrol gauge.

PC World, respect for honouring the orders :smile:
not often I say this, but well done to DSG for honouring.
You're welcome :wink:
As part of the Customer Support Team, your correspondence has been passed to me to investigate and respond.
The Amazon dot bundle pack was advertised for £42.50 on our website, this was an error and was rectified as soon as possible. Due to the error any orders that were placed and not already dispatched have been cancelled as per our terms and conditions of sale.
I can see that your order has been dispatched and is currently with Royal mail, as this is already out for delivery the deal will be honoured.
If there is anything else I can help with please let me know.
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/amazon-echo-119-99-amazon-echo-dot-39-99-pc-world-2556485
I have to say, I'm surprised the deal was honoured, especially for home delivery!
Hi Victoria,
This was a pricing error that was noticed yesterday evening and removed from sale at the earliest opportunity. Our colleagues in store have been advised that sadly we wouldn't be able to honour any reservations and tried to contact all affected customers prior to visiting the branch.
We have however agreed to honour the sale of any customer who has already made payment via our website, which I believe you were alluding to. I offer my apology once more for any disappointment.
Richard
If anyone is wondering whether they will get theirs, this may be good news.
I ordered three sets pretty quickly yesterday, click and collect without a set time. Today, I read all the info about honouring one set customers only (sometimes) etc., and thought that I was out of luck and was just waiting for my cancellation email.
Then at about 3pm, an email arrived saying it was ready to be picked up. The good news in doing it this way is that it is simply a package that I collected. The chap behind the counter asked to confirm that they were Dots, but there was no money amounts on any paperwork and so nothing was flagged up.
So – if you haven't heard anything yet, it may be god news.
It's not business at all. If these people were any good at business, they wouldn't be scabbing around on HUKD for stock to sell.
Money taken and out for postage, glad I took a chance when I saw it (early), gift for the mother in law.
For the odd 'tell me a joke' the device speaker is ok
worth knowing amazon music (echo plan) is under £4/month so may be of use
Mine arrived in post, even got an email from curryspcw giving the time slot !! (free delivery, next day anytime)
no problems my end with yesterdays online order........ fantastic find, adds to the collection and can control hive in every room :wink:
If it does happen I'll initiate a chargeback.
anyone who has had it delivered by royal mail did you get 2. hoping as thesw are for my kids
Thanks so much rybu79 - Merry Christmas!
Fingers crossed everyone!
Let's see if one or two arrive!
Thanks again OP, this was a cracking find! Well done to all of you who have got them.
Merry XMAS ALL!
Not meaning to offend anyone who did collect early, just had to point out the irony to Sharpharp :laughing:
And i did reserve and try collect!
I remember OH in Tesco having it out with a Manager about a mispriced video game that he didn't get on click and collect and others had honoured but he was adamant he couldn't have it.
As I say it depends how far people wanna take it,good luck with it though,hope you get sorted.
One rule for one and another for another!
by the sounds of it because other people got honoured and orders have been dispatched we could be getting them!
Never mind you can't win them all. Well done to those who managed to get them and thanks to OP for spotting, don't think I've ever seen a deal get that hot so quick :smiley:
An email from head office has instructed each branch to contact everyone to let them know.
Well done for everyone who managed to make it to a branch last night or got them sent out in time.
:smile:
Happy Christmas
was free delivery too..
Give it another try. The article has 3 bullet points and the first states anyone ordering more than 1 shouldn't be honoured, second one says anyone with an order of 1 and isn't happy with being told it won't be honoured should get it honoured to keep "a good customer" and the third was that any staff orders should be cancelled with immediate effect so don't try use a staff discount
I'm not condoning people buying up loads to sell,but it's a bit rich coming from someone who only takes from the site themselves and doesn't contribute deals to help others.
I've put a wanted add up if anyone is feeling festive? :smile:
I had a mobile phone worth no more than £200 that ended on auction for £5,500,but I wasn't paid that.
Wasn't really calling you a knob as such, more that what you had done was 'knobbish' :smiley:
Clicked the Whatsapp link as soon as it was pushed to my phone - had already expired by then. Would have happily had two, enjoy :smiley:
They weren't at the click and collect desk but they just picked them off the display behind the checkout.
Errrr, no thanks, £5 cheaper direct from Amazon including delivery...(so £10 cheaper)
What a knob
I am funny yes and remember he who laughs last, laughs the longest. ie. me.
I'm not really picking an argument here, just saying there isn't really much profit to made unless people are foolish to pay £39. Personally I'd pay the extra fiver for a proper warranty.
Good luck with it though. (no sarcasm)
I don't think anyone that missed out on the deal has missed out on much really unless they wanted to purchase for resale.
Brilliant, brilliant deal, and really pleased you got some yourself to reward your hard work!
Get over it..
If I wanted it I would buy it, I just don't see what the fuss is about the product.
Thanks again OP.
Got banned innit.
"Luke-kirk is the result of a failed experiment involving inbred morons. It is the pathetic excuse for a human and will no doubt live a worthless life"
Wow echo is spot on!
the manager was called
could not find the bundle online,
he picked up 4 and run them through the till
thank you OP.
Happy Christmas
As there may not be an auto reject price set :man:
Sometimes we have to hold our hands up and admit we have made a mistake by unintentionally publishing inaccurate information on the site (e.g. the price, description or availability of a product you have ordered). In this instance we may have to cancel your order at any time, even if you have received your Order Confirmation email, and you will receive a full refund of any charges already paid.
lol
managed to get 3 sets (6) in total best not to be greedy in kingston upon thames cheers

But I do not know for how long they will have stock. I heard couple of people talking about this so I guess they bought all. But in the end I got 4 bundles. Initially I bought 2 bundles for £85 but I have back for additional 2 so got spare ones if you want.
If you can collect these from me before 8pm I am happy to sell 2 bundles to you for same price I paid so £85 but because I paid with card I will not be able to give you receive.
PM me if you want to take these.
Before anyone else asks - this is only to cantonbean.
Did they put up any fuss when you were trying to buy them ?
So take it no more can be ordered ?
If I dont get them ill just move on :smiley:
Another thing,these dots are designed to be placed around the home in different locations,so people may have punched a few to DOT around their home.
I guess PC World were trying to implement the same offer as
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/amazon-echo-dot-2nd-generation-down-44-99-amazon-42-49-buying-two-using-code-2575657
and messed it up.
So it wouldn't matter if people had purchased 2 or 200.
Never mind.
Just to get a reaction and to annoy those who didn't get one.
Had a bit of a job getting them as the staff said the price was for 1 dot and not 2,lucky for me it was still showing online that you get 2,in the end they gave up and sold me 4 for £85 :smile:
Cheers OP,that's some cheap Christmas presents sorted
I'm sure some people can justify it to themselves, but they are just parasites taking money from people and offering nothing.
Good luck to all those who got them. And the ones who bought many, tidy profit.
Edit: I did ask if I could get another but the price in store was different and they couldn't match the online price
I called Currys CEO and asked him if this was a genuine deal. He said "everything on our site is a genuine deal." I replied, "great, but just to obtain 100% clarification, you are selling one for more than the twin pack duo, which would make Currys a huge loss in revenue." He then realised the mistake, thanked me, and replied he was about to delete the offer from the site. He was about to hang up on me, but I said I have a followup question. He was frustrated, but allowed me to continue. I asked what would happen to orders that had gone through. He again thanked me for reminding him of all those orders that would have gone through, and said he was would immediately phone all stores and tell them not to honour the reservations at any cost and would also cancel all online orders. He hung up after promising me an individualised 50% off any product discount code.
As a thank you he is letting me keep 10 of the 16 orders, but they will be cancelling everyone else's orders, and have placed all stores with active reserve and collection reservations on a 24-style lockdown.
We spoke at length and basically this is a deal they were hoping to run in the days leading up to Christmas but the price had not been re-adjusted for the Brexit currency devaluation. They'll be re-activating the offer soon for £142.50.
Just in case i'm not around
Reservation number 2313epb
Currys PC World featuring Carphone Warehouse Cardiff
Unit 1/2 Port Road

Please post if you're going to use the reservation to save other people a trip.
People buying to put on eBay are literally offering nothing, All they are doing is taking money off people.
Bought=buy
:smiley:
He says they know about the glitch and apologised profusely that I had missed out. He said he was going to give me one of the reservations they had as a gesture of good will!.
Hows that for customer service, lovely guy.
Couldn't add it to my basket and then 10 minutes later it vanished from the website.
I don't bulk buy to sell on, mainly because I can't be bothered with the hassles of having to then resell them, but people really need to chill out and stop getting so worked up about things like this.
:man:
Any one wants to go half on a pack?
Dear Gillian
We are now preparing your PC World order for delivery..
Cant even get to the shop for a while :disappointed:
J
:confused:
Good times.
just as i was about to click enter a third appeared and i got it! already had it though :disappointed:
This site is really going into the dumpster.
Also, says 'bundle' not '2 x whatever it is'
Lets face it, if your attitude is like that, why are you using such a simple device as a phone? Surely there are more complex, less 'simple' ways to communicate? Send a letter, send a telegram even.
I don't think this is getting honoured somehow.
Weird reserve email
I am resisting though as I don't need them.......
Or you could just look at the petrol gauge.
