Yes, it's an inconvenience, but it doesn't seem right to pursue all avenues trying to get them to honor the price when you knew full well when placing the order that the price is most likely due to an error.

Yeah, I agree. I just wouldn't want to take the risk myself until the deal is confirmed... Asked them for a formal quote, so lets see.
 
I remember about a year ago they cancelled everyone's orders due to incorrect pricing from their suppliers. Will prob do the same for this.

I remember this was for a tv or something and people were placing massive orders was advertised on hot deals. I have never dealt with First shop.. If their supplier messed they should honor it. Takealot does and other online shops do or else you boycott them. It's the principal.

Just checked now.

They suppose to be transparent if the screen is damaged / demo / display... They try to lure unsuspecting buyers to purchase items which they don't have in stock and offer you something different at a higher price which means you've to pay the difference.

Incredible Connection has the same tactics. Purchased a demo notebook took it in for repairs(warranty) for faulty LCD back light and dead pixels... They want me to pay the difference for another notebook. Told them straight book it in.... her response : These models are problematic.. I don't care it comes with warranty they should learn not to sell faulty demo units to the customer if the system is problematic. The supplier would have recalled all units if that was the case.


System performs fantastic .
 
Shouldn't kalahari have disappeared and merged by now? I was under the impression that 15 March was the end. They will be missed when they are gone.

I recall that first tech shop hold no direct stock and read off the suppliers lists to display stock, pricing etc. Automated system where obvious errors don't get picked up.
 
Yup . I had same issue with ram I bought from them .

This is not the first time that First Shop makes mistakes, I bought a laptop from them that they did not honour due to a mistake on their system.

They should honour it. Example the price you see on the shelf is the price you pay. Nowadays Incredible Corruption honour pricing errors on their brochures
