Thanks for the tip Dave, I just ordered one too.
Seems a little bit cheap to me!
Thanks
Kate :lol1:

😮 😮 😮
I’ve just bought one too ………………. must be a mistake ………….!
-
Does seem a bit cheap…but I doubt it’s a misprint.
Anyway – if / when it arrives – if it’s not as per the spec sheet it’ll be going back / flogged on Ebay.
SHOULD be. 512Mb / 60Gb / Centrino Dual core 1.6Ghz / WiFi / 128Mb graphics / Dual layer DVD / Vista home basic with (student) Office 2007.
Would be hard pressed to buy the OEM / educational versions of the software for that money…
I know PC world were flogging off 1.6Ghz XP laptops on boxing day for £150 (20 per store).
hmm, the £250’s are no longer listed 😥
-
I won’t ask what you were doing on the Littlewoods website Dave 🙄
But well done sir, I can’t resist a bargain 😀
£149.00 with foc delivery 😮
-
exactly ………….. the software would cost that! Got to be worth buying!
What were the £250 ones like …………….. they weren’t listed when I looked?
-
I hope I don’t see you all on that TV program called "The Real Hustle", I can’t seem to get on to the website anymore 😮

Did I get the last one 😀 they have dissapeared 😮
Don’t say that you make me nervous Warren, works alright this end.

I have just bought one but after refreshing the page the price has now gone up to £649 so it was a typo
Dale
-
i got mine off http://www.choiceforyou.co.uk...
Had my confirmation- wonder if it was a mistake?…….
-
Yes Kate looks like yours is now £649

Dale
That’s the next one up Dale I looked at that aswell.
The £149.00 has been withdrawn hmmmm 😕 -
Ach! Could’ve had a bargain there!
Got my order tracking number & confirmation – but payment hasn’t been taken yet so they don’t need to honour ANY of the orders. Grr!
Ah well, looks like I’m not getting the PC all to myself after all!
ps. Martin – I’m not a closet Littlewoods shopper…got tip-off on one of my car forums.
-
ive tried to view my order and that service is unavailable now 😕
I think we may have bankrupted The Littlewoods Group between us!
Do yo think they will still honour them?
-
the £649 one is the same specification as my confirmation for the £149 one

Not a hope. Price tickets, lists & stickers as known as "invite to treat" in retail…not a binding contract for the seller until payment has been accepted.
Shame huh!
-
Hi all,
Is there still a littlewoods/index as the shops that were in Newcastle and metrocentre all closed down – hope its not a nasty scam.

Gutted. Thought it was a new toy to play with while I was on maternity leave. 😥
-
Never mind 🙁
I managed to get this one instead, I think it’s got Vista, not sure weather it’s wireless though.

Think they’ve gone into meltdown :lol1:Martin that VTech is a smart looking piece of kit! :lol1:

maybe there’s hope for the rest of us then! I paid by credit card to give me insurance …………. or so I thought!!!!!

Good News and Bad News!!
Bad news is.Just spoken to Littlewoods, and……… my Vtech one has sold out 😥 😥
Good news is the £149.00 one is GENUINE 😀 they have sold out hence removed.
Confirmation email will take up to 2 hours.
Happy Days 😀 😀
I’ll believe it when it’s on my door step though.
-
I’ve JUST spoken to Littlewoods.
ALL of the orders placed for the laptop have been canceled as it was a listing error.
The £149 / £249, was simple for the Vista & Office software package – NO hardware.
I didn’t even have to mention what I’d ordered, just that I’d placed an order today & can’t access my account…she simple asked "was it for the laptop?" then went into her spiel.
So no card payments will be processed, no credit checks for the interest free….unless you REALLY want Vista….nah!
-
🙁 🙁 🙁
Obviously the guy I spoke too was miss informed.
Ah well – Back to the Vtech
-
Just had this sad Email (sniff), looks like I’ll be getting the V-tech too.

just because a large company makes an error, why do you all think you should be able to benefit? or take advantage?The highly Moral

quote Peter Normington:just because a large company makes an error, why do you all think you should be able to benefit? or take advantage?
We Dont!
Not for one minute would I expect them to honor the deal due to it being a typing error etc.
I as the others I guess, thought it was a genuine deal, unbelievably cheap though it was. We were not all trying to cash in on a typographical error.Dave, Vtech…. you haven’t heard of them, a market leader in laptops, I’m shocked. I’ve been using one for years with no probs.

Actually, I thought they were just stupidly cheap…it’s not like it said "£14.99". Bearing in mind that PC World were punting out XP Home 1.6Ghz laptops on boxing day for £150 this just seemed a similar deal. The fact that this one was running the lowest spec Vista (£52) made it look just feasible.
Martin, yeh Vtech are great…right up there with Tomy IMO.
-
no… Dell for the win! :lol1:
sure i last saw VTech in Woolworths
