Re: FLE #7 Reservation Instructions
That might not be totally accurate....I've chatted with another buyer whose pre-order went a bit awry after 1 x successful deposit - he's received 2 x "number allocated" emails even though 1 x deposit amount in his account and an exchange of explanatory emails between him and Wera that should have sorted the problem before numbers were allocated.Kip wrote:I can't tell exactly as Wera needs to sort, but it is in the 40's.srs1286 wrote:What number?Kip wrote:Except that this time a deposit will be forfeited.

So don't be surprised if the quantity available clicks up to 2 sometime today.

Re: FLE #7 Reservation Instructions
Where did you come up with such a precise date? Wish it to be so and it will be?

Re: FLE #7 Reservation Instructions
Still showing 2 available as a basket option, but all of the strap options have disappeared.
Re: FLE #7 Reservation Instructions
Well maybe if people stopped dicking around with the website, plonking/removing loads of watches into/from the basket, just to see how many are still available, the system might be able to be a touch more reliable and accurate.Mikkei4 wrote:That might not be totally accurate....I've chatted with another buyer whose pre-order went a bit awry after 1 x successful deposit - he's received 2 x "number allocated" emails even though 1 x deposit amount in his account and an exchange of explanatory emails between him and Wera that should have sorted the problem before numbers were allocated.Kip wrote:I can't tell exactly as Wera needs to sort, but it is in the 40's.srs1286 wrote: What number?

If the system is robust, that shouldn't make any difference, it will only reduce numbers on completed deals.Scrogg wrote:smegwina wrote:Well maybe if people stopped dicking around with the website, plonking/removing loads of watches into/from the basket, just to see how many are still available, the system might be able to be a touch more reliable and accurate.
