keep your eyes on the "Advent Calendar" promo - I have a funny feeling there might be a little NES stock they're holding out on, plus some other fun stuff.

Does anyone know of any sites where genuine NES mini pads are in stock? I don't want the console, just an official pad

I think you can only get them from Nintendo or Game

lol, they've substituted the promo for that "breaking bricks" tshirt they can't get rid of. £10.49 - scandalous.

Just whinged at their customer services on the phone. Long story short: none in stock, don't know when new stock is due in, will treat customers who have paid as priority when it does arrive. I was given the option of a refund but for the sake of a tenner I'm relatively happy to wait.
sneakyduck
21 Dec 16#68
typical of The Hut, unfortunately. at least they were prepared to offer the refund, as they should.

What a joke Nintendo are.
I have just received a cancellation email even though I have waited a month. They have offered 10% credit off my next order which equates to 80p. What an absolute farce!
Marcoos to bumbaclart
28 Dec 16#70
Ditto! They also claimed they didn't charge me, which is rubbish! They took the money from PayPal straight away and haven't refunded me yet. I wonder how many other people's money they've sat on for 3 weeks...
sneakyduck to bumbaclart
28 Dec 16#71
again, this isn't Nintendo - it's The Hut

My order has been cancelled! Not happy at all considering they had my money for almost a month and no updates during this period.

Mine has been cancelled too. Refund in about 3-5 days.
shawsmama
29 Dec 16#74
Ordered 2nd Dec money debited from my account on 7th Dec and order has been cancelled on 28th Dec. How can they have the cheek to charge you for a item that they have not even dispatched ? then cancel 26 days later. Really poor customer service.
shawsmama
29 Dec 16#75
I received the same email but I too was charged .emailed back to be told to wait 3-5 working days for a refund. Really they shouldn't be charging until items are dispatched. Cancelling a order 26 days later is quite ridiculous .
