[adam c]

Just ordered 24 bottles but it didnt come upto the £25 minimum spend so got 2 bottles of buy one get one free schweppes lemonade!lol .should be getting delivered on saturday between 12pm and 2pm:d

[t45_ste]

missed it. gutted

[wwmnw]

Yeah it vanished when I logged in on opera.

[adam c]

must of only just vanished as only ordered mine about 2 minutes ago.

[brownbear]

Might save the bottles for the next png event.... Cheap voddy for everybody**













**this statement doesn't denote i will sell for 97p I will screw you all over so fast your heads would spin and if i was you I would expect a 415.4639% increase in price.. Minimum!**

[t45_ste]

****ter

[Sloth]

£5 says they cancel it and refund...

[t45_ste]

can they do that?

[adam c]

£5 says they cancel it and refund...
Yeah no doubt they will do!but its worth a try.

Edit:If its advertised and they have it in stock dont they HAVE to sell you it?:confused:

[Sloth]

no as im sure i read in the sun that they can blame it on a software glitch and get out of it, or just say there is nil stock.

[Nova_Tek]

IIRC just coz the price is incorrect doesn't mean you can have it at that price. It can be removed off sale.

Like if you went to buy trainers and it had a 30quid tag but the real price was £50. It can be removed off sale and not sold.

That's what I remember.

[brownbear]

Yup screen capture and save emails. If asked say you didn't realise it was a mistake they have no footing to withdraw from the contract.

[brownbear]

same in retail.

[Rysee]

I had them twice in my basket, 26 bottles, until I logged in to pay, that was once on Chrome and once on IE7

[brownbear]

you can only order 24 max

[Rysee]

you can only order 24 max

Or none as it is now haha

[brownbear]

lol.

[wwmnw]

If you see something advertised at a certain price, get to the til and buy it and its more than advertised you are in the right to get it at the lower price, I know this because customers are always doing this where I work although sainsburys should sort their **** out tbh.

You also have the right to refuse your substitutes and increased prices at the door, Asda fail. Cost of fuel and time delivering. Not my issue.

I have already paid and got the confirmation email through with the receipt.i doubt they can take more money out of my bank AFTER i have already paid?

Its like going into a shop and buying a pair of trainers for £40 and getting your receipt and then the next day they take £50 out of your bank as they were £50 in another shop?

[wwmnw]

Where does it say that?

[CoolTiger]

in full trolly veiw

[burgo]

15 bottles of vodka
2 crates of carlsberg
1 crate of bow
2 packs of tomatoes

[wwmnw]

Sly *******s have done something.

http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd220/lostboy_014/Novodka.jpg

[steviegsi]

its still coming up for me under search for sky vodka. just a shame i've went down my mums phonebook and not one of the postcodes is suitable for delivery, there goes my dreams of making millions bootlegging cheap vodka lol.

[brownbear]

Turn it down at the door if they try it.... Surely customer service should contact re a £300+ price increase??

[Sloth]

you all owe me £5. ta.....

[wwmnw]

you all owe me £5. ta.....

Why?

[steviegsi]

What is also funny is that, we can all talk about nova/cars in threads and the replys trickle in . Put up a link for cheap vodka and 7 pages in just over an hour lol

[Sloth]

said it would fail :d

[adam c]

said it would fail :d
Tbh it hasnt failed..........yet:confused:

[burgo]

it hasnt failed imo until they dont turn up with it and issue me a refund. charged me for it so they've got to either honour it or give me the money back

[Sloth]

why are peoples showing as 0.00p then?

[burgo]

why are peoples showing as 0.00p then?because they fail lol mine didnt show £0.00. mine came to £40 all together

[adam c]

When i look it still comes up as 97p per bottle.

[wwmnw]

why are peoples showing as 0.00p then?

It would appear Asda clicked on, probably wondering why they got **** loads of traffic from pngclub.com to their website buying loads of Skyy vodka.

[wwmnw]

When i look it still comes up as 97p per bottle.

Try putting 24 in your basket and a couple of random items to make it up to £25 then see how much your basket/trolley comes to.

[Sloth]

dosnt come up at all for me, adam, copy and paste your link.

[wwmnw]

Rob, try clearing your cookies then look at the product (actually click on the product to view it properly, this worked for me), copy the link to the product log into your asda account then try buy some.

[burgo]

its facking easy to find. click drinks - spirits and liquers, then price range 0.00p - 0.99p

[wwmnw]

its facking easy to find. click drinks - spirits and liquers, then price range 0.00p - 0.99p

Didn't work like that for me mate, I had to clear cookies to find it for some reason. And stop hiding offline lol

[dave watson]

haha this is the best think i have seen in ages how did you find that bet asdas sales of that have shot through the roof because of png lol

[adam c]

I did it the same as burgo

http://groceries.asda.com/asda-estore/search/searchcontainer.jsp?trailSize=1&searchString=skyy&domainName=Products&headerVersion=v1&_requestid=168756

[novaguy08]

This stuff is coming up as £15.97 now.

F****RS! why did I actually go to bed early last night!?!?

[Nova_Tek]

would be funny if ASDA adjusted the price on all the ones sold to £15.97. Image that!

15.97 x 24 = £383.28

lol

[Asa-James]

Please note that these prices are for guidance only.

FAIL

bingo, you dont actually get charged until the order is picked, and you are charged what the items cost in store at that time, regardless of the online price


If you see something advertised at a certain price, get to the til and buy it and its more than advertised you are in the right to get it at the lower price, I know this because customers are always doing this where I work although sainsburys should sort their **** out tbh.

you do have the right to buy at advertised price, but any retailer can refuse to serve you, and refuse your custom

[Mazz]

Nice find boys :)

Have to wait and see what happens!

[t45_ste]

anybody had theirs delivered?

[Mike]

Did anyone see the major league cock up on the Currys website few weeks back??

£2k American style fridge freezers advertised for sale at £187 with a free wine chiller mini fridge.

Guess whos's currently waiting for a new fridge freezer & wine chiller to be delivered :d

[Sloth]

missed that mike, feck i need a new fridge too.

[Mike]

missed that mike, feck i need a new fridge too.

Ill be selling one v-soon lol lol

[Sloth]

lmfao! del-boy of png....

[napalm_27]

think people should share any interweb cock ups so we can all go buy and flood ebay with brand new ****e for more then what we payed lol lol lol lol

[Sloth]

isnt that what you did via mig? hence your sig?


(i joke nath)

[napalm_27]

isnt that what you did via mig? hence your sig?


(i joke nath)

lol shh you will give the game away

(im not like that no more i did **** up back then due to mine and the garages fault :()

[Sloth]

mate its cool, i know your sound.

[burgo]

vodka was out of stock apparently :(

[napalm_27]

vodka was out of stock apparently :(

thats because every ****er off here has bought it lol lol lol lol

[Mike]

think people should share any interweb cock ups so we can all go buy and flood ebay with brand new ****e for more then what we payed lol lol lol lol

If you flood the market, the buyer has more choice, which results in lower selling prices :tard: :roll:

[burgo]

the delivery women did ask if there was a deal on as alot of people have been buying it

[napalm_27]

If you flood the market, the buyer has more choice, which results in lower selling prices :tard: :roll:

your really not grasping the concept are you lol
we buy cheap i.e something for £100 that usually sold at £2k then we all put them on ebay for say £500 so £1.5k less then shops so people buy them and we make profit its really not rocket science is it

[Jack]

Mike is saying when EVERYONE does it, its a buyer's market, which drives prices down. So you stick your £500 fridge on ebay, thats cool [edit: no pun intended], but when there's 1,000 other £500 fridges on there, the guy selling for £499 will be the one who sells.

Economics 101, you have to sell stuff to make a profit, no matter how cheap your purchase was.

[Stuart]

lol shh you will give the game away

(im not like that no more i did **** up back then due to mine and the garages fault :()

live and learn and get a poor rep... nevermind lol

[mowgli]

haven't you lot ever heard of marketing...? how many blokes do internet grocery shopping??? not many.... so asda puts £10k work of cheap vodka on the website at a 'wrong' price, and suddenly hundreds of thousands of blokes are registered on their site.... in the middle of the world cup, when booze sales are up.....

i might be an old cynic, but it sounds like cheap advertising to me.

[Sloth]

the old man makes a good point.

any "during the war" gen?

lol

[Pete]

lol in the daily mirror there is someone moaning about not recieving his vodka.

look (sorry about size but easier to read)

thats when modern advertising was invented, they called it propaganda in those days...... but lying to the people has been around for 7000 years, moses invented it, how else could he get a whole nation to follow him into a desert

was moses a lie too?

he appears to have been a real person, but the book is mostly fibs, and the film is even worse...

[wwmnw]

The cake is a lie, so moses must be.

[mowgli]

even my twisted thoughts can't work that out.... because cake is definitely real, my missus worships them regularly

Dude, I know about buying & selling, I know a lot. Enought write a book about it.

I would be the person that puts ficticous xxx item I bought for £100 on to say eBay for £200. Thats £300 less then everyone else, £1700 less then RRP, yet a garanteed sell within minutes of auction start. Easiest 100% profit you could/would (hypothectically) ever make. There is more to selling then just maximising profits.

[mowgli]

but getting loads of money does help though...

there is only one way to sell right, and when it dawns on people, they usually start doing it immediately & make loads of money......

[brownbear]

My Asda was out of stock too :(

[Jack]

+rep for whoever gets the program thats from.
Red Dwarf, didn't they find some old capsules of something or other and that was on a news clip? The newsreader said it.

As for the Asda marketing, I doubt it. They'd come off quite bad IMO as people would think they can just chop and change prices as they see fit, so undermines their internet shopping doofer.

[mowgli]

jack... just look at the publicity its made. you can't tell me that they hadn't got a price filter on the site to insure against this sort of thing

[Mike]

but getting loads of money does help though...

This is true yea, but you can also end up getting greedy, taking the monies & offering a sheet service (everyone knows if you get paid before doing a job, you can never be bothered to do it when it comes round!)

IMO even if you aim for a minimum of 50% mark up, to start thats not bad at all. 100% or more is always a bonus, but with eBay (for example) its simply not achievable all the time unless your selling with BIN's facility (altho offering a "best offer" service pays divid ends too, if you know how to use it right tho ;)

The old capsule they found was a garbage container that Rimmer thought was a mysterious alien artefact, the news story was from a postage capsule that had been following them for 3 million years :thumb:

when i was 12, we had a project in social studies. we had to 'invent' and market a product........the product had to cost £10 to manufacture including initial development.

so i put our group's product with an rrp 39.99. it was a consumer electrical item.....

i got a D and an attempt by the teacher at a full public humiliation..... so i pointed out the cost of advertising, shipping, wholesale, and retail margins. he thought the item should retail for £14.99, i got a weeks detention for pointing out that it proved why he was only a teacher.
