Ordered this release in july together with The Hills have eyes, but today received an e-mail from zavvi that the order has been cancelled due to a problem with the payment from my Paypal account. Called to Paypal, appparently the reservation period is passed after 2 months. I sent a mail to zavvi to change my payment method, not possible! Someone any experience with this problem or any idea how to solve it? Getting very annoyed from the standard helpdesk answers at zavvi....Thanks...
Unfortunately you are experiencing firsthand the almost unbelievable level of inflexibility in the Zavvi / The Hut web store implementation.

The customer can't change the payment method or shipping address after an order has been placed. Their customer service can't change the payment method or shipping address after an order has been placed.

The only solution is to reorder with changed details and obviously that doesn't work for OOS items.

Re-order . . . as now available again at HMV (GBP 17.99) and Amazon (GBP 24.32).
Still showing "Product not found" over at Arrow and "Sold out" at Zavvi.
Re-appeared as mysteriously as disappeared . . .

So much for Arrow telling us that all stock levels had been depleted by most of the retailers.......:rolleyes:

Amazon's is over £24!
Stock showing up on Amazon and HMV would be due to orders been cancelled it's not unusual to see stock show up just before release date with any release that was previously showing sold out as you get customers cancelling orders just before release date for varies of reasons but most due to funds not available.

At least 78 unpaid orders with Amazon alone?

Doesn't sound right to me. Most people preorder and payment is automatically taken before despatch. I find it hard to believe all these cards were declined at the same time. I dont think I've ever had an unpaid order problem.......:confused:

Lot of customers cancel orders a few days before payment will be taken I do it myself a few times with Amazon/Zavvi
Most customers know HMV take payment on a Thursday/Friday and Amazon on Saturday when a release date is the following Monday so customers cancel orders just before payment is taken
Most sold out pre order releases come back available just before release date but these end up sold out before or just after release depending on the amount that comes back

Amazon have only 44 copies available

Amazon have only 38 copies available and HMV 44 Copies
If you want a copy I would order now as I expect these to be sold out by end of today or early tomorrow
