  • email says refunded to PayPal, see a transaction there but not the amount, would that be credit back to associated CC ?

    Order cancelled, refund from PayPal..

    They should called themselves 'OfficeDoesNotWorks'

  • Like everyone else, order cancel and paypal refunded.

  • Cancelled + refund.

  • Cxl and refund too, oh well

  • Just call Office work they said it was clearance stock and advertise in error. There is no stock . ;-(

  • Cancelled + refund oh well

  • They've cancelled the order… Received an email saying " Unfortunately, we've had to cancel and refund your order. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused you. " blah blah blah…

    Should be a pricing error…

  • Are they allowed to reneg on the offer? Shouldn’t they honour it when stock returns?

    I hope the popcorners are enjoying themselves :P

    So only 1 success story? Wow, so lucky @easternculture!!!

      Are they allowed to reneg on the offer? Shouldn’t they honour it when stock returns?

      Pretty sure that they can considering they acknowledge it as a pricing error.

      I hope the popcorners are enjoying themselves :P

      I saw this movie's ending a mile away… just wish it wasn't true TT

        But there was the fairy tale ending for at least 1 person!

        Hehe, oh well, worth the rush :)

        No mention of a pricing error, says it was a clearance product. As far as no stock, I'm sure there was a very long lead time when I ordered so expected they had stock coming.

        I'm just confused as to why they didn't just put price error as the reason for cancellation.

        • Ops, must have misread it…

    • Shouldn’t they honour it when stock returns?

      Reported to be Clearance item - so very unlikely will be restocked.

      Popcorn ran out long ago. These OW movies are so long & predictable - almost always has same ending😯

      • Yeah, but given they actually shipped at least one out today, that's clearly not the case :P

        • Likely to be the case… If it was shipped it was probably one of the few clearance stock available, now run out.

          The no stock left cancellations started after the report of a delivery.

      Congrats! #2 I believe

      Much jelly

      • EC didn't receive monitor but other item ordered, so probably same here as other item in order should still be sent.

        Seems no winners in 🎉🎉Ozbarain lottery🎉🎉 this time. Does that mean the prize jackpots in next OW deal?

        • Damn, I was hoping to be proved wrong. I had plenty opportunity to pull the trigger, but I didn't believe I would really get one.

        • Ahh thanks for that, didn't know.

          What a shame.

    • Have you received it now and confirmed that the monitor really got delivered too?

      No one does receive one.

      How exactly does an order number help you at all, Mr. Liu? Are you going to hijack it, find their address and steal it from them?

  • mine was cancelled

    "Why was my order cancelled?

    Sounds like they did have a few monitors that they were selling at that price. Maybe some of the early on people did snag a bargain.

  • mine cancelled as well

  • mine delivered……………not

      they can't honour it if there is no stock

      It was so very, very clearly an error (see very first comment on this post). You took the risk, now suck it up.

  • Hi,

    I have not yet seen the refund $ hitting my card (used to pay that transaction), though OW email confirmed to have refunded and PayPal also confirms refunded, but its neither on PayPal Balance or on my card ? anyone noticed similar issue?

    • It won't be on your paypal balance, it would show as a paypal transaction. And yes it hasn't hit my cc either even though it has been sitting on paypal for several days. I suspect it may have something to do with paypal taking their sweet time putting the transaction through?

      • thanks @gimme,
        shall wait for another few days and see how it goes,before starting to knock at Paypal

    So, I know most everyone has abandoned this thread as a tribute to dashed hopes, but…

    It appears that after my refund was processed, the monitor was dispatched
    and just arrived today.

    It's more of a curiosity at this point I suppose, as nobody else seems to have gotten one.

    Here is proof:

      WTF?!

      • +1

        Yeah, that was my reaction too.
        After eastern culture didn't get his one, I thought it must be something else I had ordered.
        But lo and behold, guy turns up on my doorstep

        (also i'm not great with paint, let me know if there is any identifying info in there, id rather not be public with this)

      After they refunded you? So you got it for free and this is your very first post? I salute a true OzBargainer!

        I've been lurking for ages and I only just got motivated to create an account just to share this story really.

      Have you received the monitor?? I just received a dispatch notice, but my refund was processed and received last week??

      Also, did you have a tracking number or anthing? Mine doesn't, so I don't know if it's a mistake while correcting the error or not…?

      EDIT: I can see you did receive it per your link. Hopefully I get mine too!! =D

        • @CaptainHammer:
          Yeah, pretty lucky, just goes to show; doesn't hurt to place an order on a pricing error.
          It's a pretty nice monitor too, but a little too big for how I'm setup atm, so gonna have to look at moving some stuff around…

        Hello. My order didn't go through as there was no stock but I contacted Officeworks and told them that you received your refund already and asked they not despatch the item as yet… Hopefully the monitor goes back into the stock pool and I will be next to receive one…

          I'm going to assume that's a joke…

          @matthewk85:

          Yes, lol. No way I am doing that but looks like your monitor will be with you within a day or two. I once ordered from Officeworks at 11am and got my item at 3pm!

        • +1

          @hell0:

          Admittedly, I freaked out when I read your post. lol

          I see they ship with toll, usually pretty quick, seeing as I'm in a rural city it might take a bit longer, but hopefully before the end of the week.

  • Wow, so 2 people got the monitor, and they got it for free!!!??

    I knew I shouldn't have selected click and collect! Should've done the delivery!

    Oh well, you learn.
