thanks for the info, i do hope my local WHSmiths as them in stock, it would be nice to try out the Rainbow Ereader.


best wishes koboy

I'd originally jumped in and ordered direct from the Kobo store but cancelled that when I realised it was available from WHS. My order's still outstanding but the "Modify Order" button in the order details page has gone, so I'm assuming mine's locked in for despatch soon(?)...

See what you mean, mine can't be edited either. My fingers are well and truly crossed. Bets it'll show as in stock in Argos tomorrow now?

And this morning I got an email saying

We have not yet received stock of the item(s) you ordered.

These item(s) are on order with our supplier. We will dispatch them as soon as we receive stock. If we are unable to get stock we will cancel your order and contact you.
Despite it showing as in stock on the site. I half wish I'd gone to Kobo now

I would call and find out what's going on. The site says they have stock and the email says otherwise.

Good news everyone!

I just called them up and their stock system is showing at least 20 available. They're expecting to start posting them tomorrow (or possibly even today!). So that definitely is promising...

Ah-ha, things are moving at last! I've just received my dispatch notice. I selected the free Saver delivery so it will still be 3-5 days before delivery for me.

Actually I just checked back to my last WHS Kobo order in June 2015:
- Dispatch notice 3rd June
- Delivered 4th June, despite their estimate of 3-5 days for free delivery.

I also got the 'waiting for stock' email this morning, but the dispatch email arrived this evening anyway.

I suspect the 'waiting for stock' email may have been a standard canned response because my order had been sitting there doing nothing for 2 weeks.

It's arrived! Despite opting for 3-5 days free delivery they delivered it within 24 hours, just like last time. Lots to do now
