If you ordered the legendary edition you would only pay £5?
As far as I know it wasnt a pre-order price as any pre-orders are payed up front as I pre-ordered thundercats dvds and payed full price a few months ago.

Anyone got any other deals or mistakes they know of?

TA!

P.S. Ma xbox is still getn repaired or replaced after 3 red lights! how long does it take? to come back? im missing it! :'(

Usually around two weeks

But if you get proper fucked like I was, they will ship you back a fully functional 360 only to find find out is was the external power supply causing the red lights :-(

And... Thundercats 8)7

A quid is a way of saying a pound (£).

Did you read about it on hot deals uk too? ( my mate told me about this site ages ago ,saves me a lot of pounds)

I got my order through and it looks like a normal order but I seriosuly doubt it will go through.

You see back when amazon had the Guitar hero 2 bundle for £40 I pre ordered but they changed to price so this problably will too.

Either way if it does happen I will be sure to tell you guys... with a picture of me wearing the hat:P Only joking

IT sure is expensive which means only people with jobs and very kind parents will be able to afford it. I am not sure if I want this version or the collector's tin box because of the special book, or perhaps I wont be able to afford either at all by launch time. :P

It's been cancelled now.

Partly, no doubt, due to sites like the first linked one spreading it too far and wide! Ah well.

In their email to cancel it, they claim:

"Due to a technical error, this item has appeared for pre-order on the HMV web site but it is not yet available for purchase. We are still waiting to hear about stock availability and the price of this item from our supplier. We cannot, therefore, accept any pre-orders for the item. "

So I emailed back and said "Well, I've no objection to you cancelling it, but at least have the decency to say it's because of a pricing fuck-up and not because of some stupid stock availability excuse."

Was worth a go, tho!

I have a question about this whole pound thing. You know how in the U.S. its dollars and cents, wat is it in the U.K. pounds and ounces?

Pounds and ounces is a weight measurement.

It's pounds and pence for currency.

yes, but they're changing to the metric system soon so they'll measure their currency in kilograms and grams.
