Do Warehouse Stationery have stock?

All comments are my own opinion, and not that of my employer unless explicitly stated.

We have hopefully secured 10 units based on the new pricing. Im not sure what this is yet or what models we will have allocated.

lokhor: Do Warehouse Stationery have stock?

I was waiting outside HN at 9am but manager came and told us they returned their stock so I darted over to Warehouse Stationery. Store was empty. I enquired and was told they sold out. Asked them what time they opened and was told "8:30".

Guts. :(

Any chance of putting me down for one of those RexHavoc? Or is it going to be a mad dash on your website too :-)

"We have hopefully secured 10 units based on the new pricing." - Put me down for one, or do I order an existing one from pp.co.nz?

lokhor: I got an order confirmation at 9:32

Thank-you for purchasing with Acquire.co.nz!
Your order is currently being reviewed by our sales staff. We will contact you shortly if there are any issues regarding your order.

I got the same confirmation email, however I'm not sure this is confirmation that you have actually been successful in getting what you ordered. Remember the email says your "order is being reviewed.... "

I think all the email is confirming is that you have been successful with a pre order as stated here;

HP TouchPad 16GB WiFi - Pre order you may miss out we will confirm by email if you got lucky!

Has anyone actually received an email confirming actual purchase. I guess if your credit card shows it has been debited then you're probably good to go.

Edit: I see now that Aquire are stating that they will be in touch. Sit back and wait I guess.

Stuff jumping on the bandwagon

I think it is fair that staff get to buy them.

Just in front of you... 9:31:52 a.m
The guys with order confirmation at 9:29:xx are looking reasonably good right now.
