In article , Steve says... Sorry lads I think you'll find that he can sue them for the difference in price between their price and the price he has to pay elsewhere since no matter what you're all trying to say he most certainly does have a contract with dabs. I am a lawyer You're a ****e one then but there's plenty around. And seeing as you can't even afford to pay for a Usenet service I reckon you're so ****e you're starving. I thought that after the Kodak fiasco etc that automated order systems weren't deemed to create binding contracts...the order processing and money debit would have been automated so perhaps no contract was made until the goods actually picked and despatched. Given that the item was used and heavily discounted, it might reasonably be considered that such an item would be of limited availability (one) and might not be available depeending how the stock system is updated. |

In article , A clever name says...
Coming from someone using a free email service, I find your comments to be somewhat hypocritical at best. Not hypocritical at all but rather its called GOOD PRACTICE. My gmail address gets all the crap from Usenet but its spam filters are good enough that genuine messages get through. I have a real e-mail address with a domain and webhosting that I pay for. At the risk of feeding a troll, are you normally quite so dismissive of people who express helpful informed opinions, or is this thread a special case? I just don't tolerate people who try and create a problem where there isn't one. Yes he ordered a laptop and they didn't supply it because they don't have one but they've refunded his money without asking and told him too so whilst its annoying then thats it. All this talk of suing them, contract this and that is just absolute ******** and makes me mad as its primary reason is for lawyers to find a way to make money for nothing out of both parties. -- Conor Opinions personal, facts suspect. |

Of course they accepted his money - they, err, accepted it! Ignore Turton. He's just a big gob attached to a bladder full of hot air. No, I'm just someone sick to death of snivelling pathetic ****s trying to make a problem where one doesn't exist. -- Conor Opinions personal, facts suspect. |

In article , Tx2
says... In article , , a.k.a Conor says... I suggest you go and read up about E & OE E&OE does not contradict contract law, it is meant to cover small errors such as a miscalculation of price or description. It is not in place as a 'get out' from contractual obligation, such as when an order has been accepted. But if an item not available has been listed as available it does cover that. -- Conor Opinions personal, facts suspect. |

No, when the took his money the contract was formed. Steve |

Of course they accepted his money - they, err, accepted it! But they refunded him dumb****. Good luck making it stick in court. What? So you can get of any contract just by returning the money? Try this one: Buy shares, shares fall, just return the money like you didn't buy them in the first place :-) |

The Kodak case isn't a great one to support your case, once people made i clear they were going to take legal action, they honoured the advertised price. -- - The email address used in this message *IS* valid - |

"Dave" wrote in message ... "Conor" wrote in message . .. In article , Bob J says... "Conor" wrote in message . .. In article , TooFatToSurf says... Non at all. THey can't supply what they don't have. THey've refunded you so you've not lost out. I think you'll find a E&OE statement hidden somewhere. By debiting his card they almost certainly entered into a contract to supply the goods at the price stated (and taken). The fact that they didn't have the goods and refunded the money is irrelevant. I suggest that the OP (and you Conor) does a search for "loss of bargain". Ok, the fact that the goods were second hand may change things but certainly if they were new the OP would have a very good case. I suggest you go and read up about E & OE. what does e&oe stand for. Always wondered this Dave you once post a section of Claranets AUP here it was this section! 11) The customer must not send email or post articles with headers modified in such a way as to disguise the true source of such mail or article. It is the customer's responsibilty to ensure that a real email address is present and obvious to a human. Your headers look like they've been altered to me! No you're not a hypocrite are you. |
