You're a funny guy. Ever heard of a star picket and a few dead tyre tubes?

ripped from Ozbargain
"Wiggle is currently shipping free to Australia as part of its Europe Free Delivery Promotion. Yes, it says Europe but some other countries get a look in as well (inc Australia). Wiggle normally offer free shipping to Austrlia but this time there is no minimum spend. This promo expires August 8th.
And until July 2nd, you can apply the 10% off Tour de France code EXTRA10 to almost any item, again with no min spend. If you are spending more, there may be better codes to use (see http://www.this link is broken/h/option/Vouchers )
Both offers confirmed as working as of time of posting."

Would these stands be fine to use as permanent storage over a long term? i.e would it be fine for me to hang my bike on this whenever I'm not riding? Or will they cause some stress points on the frame?Nhutty wrote: http://www.harveynormanbigbuys.com.au/B ... =UO8928TS1

Who can I contact about getting my order enforced? Ministry of Fair Trading? I have screen shots of the advertised product and my final order confirmation.

There are provisions which allow traders to make mistakes and only if a shop continually uses poor practices ( i.e. happens to 20 more cell customers ) do regulatory bodies take action against retailers which will result in fines for them and not retrospective order resolution.
This does look like an honest mistake. Probably had 1 pair, and their systems/staff failed on this item.

Well they've taken my money and not refunded it yet.. they should just honour the sale.gururug wrote:The most that will happen is that they are slapped on the wrist and you spend a few hours of your time to be again told that it was an error.

Personally I'd be happy with the $10, every shop that has marked prices wrong before for me has just refunded without even an email to say my order has been cancelled.

Happens all the time on the computer geek forums. Member X sees a product obviously advertised at the wrong price, tries to buy a ton of them in the hope of making a profit selling them on, retailer notes the mistake, says it's an error, member X gets upset and the rest of the forum have a good laugh.elStado wrote:I bought 14 pairs of Shimano R106 shoes from Cell bikes who had them on sale for $9.90 each.

You gave it a shot, it was a pricing error, they've given you a $10 voucher. Be happy

Yeah it was worth a crack. I don't really care either way, I'd never usually buy anything from Cell (unless it's shoes for $9.90!) so the $10 voucher is worth peanuts.
I am, especially after cycling home this evening!Be happy
