too good to be true?
Ive just had a quick look on the dave hinde website and these rotors are priced at £0.00.
I've just ordered a couple and the only option was for £9.95 delivery, so I guess we shall wait and see what turns up.
Pleased i've got insurance on my card...just in case 😉
Hmmmmm, never gona to happen 8)
probably not....but worth a try...
and I'm sure theres some legal [s]bullsh1te[/s] cases I can use to argue my corner 🙂
Just ordered mine. Not holding out any hope.
Given it a go, lets wait and see
wonder who the first person to order 100 of them is goiong to be....
This could be interesting 😆
This could be [s]interesting[/s] very costly for dave hinde

No chance,
They won't ship them and will abuse anyone that questions them

I was thinking along these lines 😉
Not really free when shipping is £10
It will end up more hassle trying to get your shipping money back from that cowboy!
Don't they legally have to ship them?
#Don't they legally have to ship them?
course not.
mistakes dont have to be honoured.
Worse still, you've now sent £10 to david hinde for postage of something he has no compunction to send to you. Bend over chaps, this is going to smart.

"The Seller may choose not to accept an order for any reason. "
Well I will quite happily take a full refund.
"Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall affect the Buyer's statutory rights as a Consumer.
"
out of interest...for those that have ordered....how many did you order?
I ordered 2.
Just do a search for David Hinde and customer services, hes a well know crook and has been for ages,refunds doubtful. 😳
hence why I'm glad I have card insurance........and live 20 mins away from Northwich 😉
"Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall affect the Buyer's statutory rights as a Consumer.
Your statutory rights don't give you the right to have them either
I could be varying degrees of all kinds of wrong here - contract law isn't a speciality of mine, (and with that disclaimer in mind) but ...
... Following [primarily] the Kodak case back along, there was some extended debate at which point in a transaction a contract is made, and as such, a seller is bound to supply at the price offered. It was something along the lines of:
#. The seller offers you 'something' at a price - (advertised on a website).
#2. You agree - (by buying it).
#3. The seller agrees ... and this was where it kicks. From memory 🙄 if the form of words used by the website acknowledges you have placed an order, the seller is not bound to supply the goods (at the price you have agreed). Kodak (and others) had wording at this stage which perhaps may have [implicitly] constituted an 'agreement' to supply at the price offered.
Any shopping-cart software worth it's salt these days will make sure that the wording in each stage does not impose such an implied contract upon the seller, so good luck, but if 'twas me, I'd be expecting an e-mail saying thanks, but no thanks.
If he count deliver then he legally has to refund us our postage money.
Well put £9.95 on the card,it really won't end my world.
Sit and wait, I ordered 4 in various hues and sizes!
It wouldn't surprise me if it was intentional so as to get a massive load of tenners into his account...
You should order some wheels while you're at it.
OCB, think youve got the jist of it. I think the legal term is "invitation to treat" - by advertising the item they invite you to make an offer to buy, you make an offer to buy, and enter into a contract only when they accept that offer.
which is why most confirmation emails only say "we confirm receipt of your order" they dont confirm you have bought the item.
Just ordered 6.
I seem to remeber a few years back Argos's Homebase had a 26" TV' and stand advertised on their website at £0.02 and they didn't realise until a guy bought 35.... they didn't keep to the price despite protest, I can't imagine Dave Hind will given their customer serivce record.
I [i]would[/i] like to hear how you folk that [i]did[/i] order get on 😀
But if something is displayed at a certain price in a shop then legally that's the price you pay or they have to remove it from sale for 31 days
"in a shop" & "on the internet" are two different animals...
Just ordered 4, but with Dave's reputation i'm not expecting anything. If anything, this will just be a small annoyance.
Might be another Oakley thing..
It's been an age since I did a bit of contract law as part of a BTEC Business Studies course so I may be way out of date but as I remember it the advertised price was an 'invitation to treat' (rather than a contractural offer and a seller can refuse to sell at that price), the customer could then make an offer, usually by offering payment, if the seller accepted (by charging a card?) the offer then the contract is sealed and legally binding (presumably irrespective of seller TOCs).
However that was all long before internet shopping and although charging the card would appear to be an acceptance, and therefore a contract, that may not be the case. Even if it is and DH refuse to ship you've still got to go through the hassle of pursuing them through the courts and it's probably not worth the hassle.
How can it be £9.95 for delivery??! You could post the machine that makes the rotors for that much. Probably.
I would say, kiss goodbye to the shipping cost, Dave Hinde are a bunch of devious cheating scumbags.
Anyone thinking they are getting a bargain from them is dreaming

No, it accounts for human error, say for example something was put out in the wrong place. The period of removal is 24 hours, not 31 days. I learnt this working in gamestation as a student,, the amount of bratty kids who would peel off a £4.99 sticker and put it on a £39.99 game and quote some law that you have to sell it to them, they go quiet when you mention fraud and CCTV to them.
Anyone else ordered 999?
If they cant deliver the goods thats fair enough. If they then don't refund you postage then that surely is fraud or theft.
i wonder what the lead-time for a million rotors is from hope?
Getting an error message when trying to order...
