£2500 saving on a 400 2.8 and a 200-400 F4 is mighty tempting...............

Hmmm. Anybody know what's going on?
Easy. I tried to buy all that lot.Can I ask you, how did you find out what was out of stock?
My reply:Unfortunately the other goods you have ordered are out of stock and no delivery dates at this time, so we have automatically cancelled these off your order.
Email no. 2 from AJP:There's no need to cancel the remainder of the order. I'm quite happy to wait until you get fresh stocks.
I think the big sign on the web site about the sale being for in stock site only appeared after I placed my order. But I didn't take a screen shot so I can't prove it.The offer only applies for the goods in stock. So the balance of the order has been cancelled.
SUGGESTION
And if the item really is in stock you can then sell it for a profit.
So are they letting people pay for all these out of stock orders
Just rang them and ask about the Sony 70-200 and Tamron 17-50 and neither were in stock. Someone at work is going to ring about a Canon fit Tokina, I will let you know how he gets on.
i feel they maybe trying to sell off quick before they go under.
They're not selling off DSLR's and they've just moved into a new, bigger premises so they can't be too strapped for cash
Maybe they havnt offered it on DSLR because they havnt got any.
I expect Purdys marketing team/man is getting his pat on the back and looking forward to his Xmas bonus now, and so he should
If I was dishing out the plaudits and my marketing team had wasted the time of the rest of my staff by causing them to have to process orders that couldn't be fullfilled then they'd be getting their jotters (P45), not a pat on the back....
So... they are shipping Sigma 30's (which are the same price as Amazon after the 25% off)

Anyone get any £1k Nikkors with the 25% off?
No...but you knew that was going to be the case anyway...stop gloating
Not gloating honest.. but I find it fascinating how people can lose all reason when an improbable bargain is dangled.
I guess this is why people go to time share meetings on the promise of a "free holiday" or send £10 to claim a lottery prize they never entered!!
Mind you, so are Woolworths :shrug:
