The email I just got from Kalahari:
Hi Mr xxxxxxxx
Thank you for ordering the 'Killzone 3 + Green Dual Shock Controller' bundle.
Unfortunately we ran out of stock on this item just as your order was placed. As it was a very limited offer we will regrettably need to cancel your order 00000000
We do however have a large range of titles still on special. They can be found in the link below:
http://www.kalahari.com/games/90766.aspx
We’re very sorry for any disappointment and we hope that you can find an alternative in the product link provided.
Kind Regards
Kalahari
What a crock of horse ****. I placed 2 orders for these, about 30 minutes apart and when I did the 2nd one there was still stock. In fact when I went to check the NEXT DAY there was still stock.
Surely these chaps have a logical system in place where they can specify the amount of stock they have and once bought it will stop people buying the item?
2nd time this has happened with Kalahari.

Yup, that's why I avoid them whenever I can which is quite often these days.
lol yeah, I obviously didn't learn my lesson the last time
I just looked saw on the PS3 forum that all of the guys there also got the same email, so clearly Kalahari made a boo boo and are now blaming it on "Unfortunately we ran out of stock on this item JUST as your order was placed."

I also got that same E-mail from Kalahari 
- I got it twice actually: 10 minutes apart - and I only ordered it once.
I now replied to that Kalahari E-mail saying that I want to swap it for a selection of music CD's (because I don't want new games - I just wanted that controller! The CD's that I chose would cost R10 more though), so I'll see what they're going to do with my request...

You need to get a refund, not choose something else. If they try the voucher route with me, I will loose it.
Same e-mail I received. They buggered up their pricing and they are using stock availability as an excuse.

Oi! Leave me out of this...
You lot need to band together and get them to honour their price..... not everyone can get the "stock availability" issue.

I agree with you Toxic. Thats the part that burns me, if they said "Sorry, we ****ed up" But don't feed me bs that as I ordered they wen't out of stock. BS.
Some guys were even still ordering on Sunday night, I ordered mine on Saturday morning @ 6AM.

WUD FTW
SO i am reading that link they provided you with. The one with "Up to 65% off" and i have yet to find 1 game that has been reduced.
Does Kalahari know what a discount actually is?

I don't think they have a clue about anything they are doing. I will stick to Takealot, never have issues with them.

I see on Twitter that Kalahari are giving R200 vouchers to people complaining about this issue to make up for the 'inconvenience'.
At least it seems as if they want to make things right, although I think it's a bad show from them.
