can a tyre company cancel a order ?

[stuartt]

i ordered a front tyre for my busa 4 days ago from moto-tyres uk .

today i get a email saying my order is canceled as the tyre was advertised at the wrong price !

should they not have to sell it for the price advertised ?

Ok, they'll change their minds and say they have none left.

Had similar thing happen when I was looking for leather trousers.

Nowhere had it with a 32 waist and I found a couple sellers who had it in stock on ebay, turns out after I'd ordered/paypal'd it they found out they didn't have it in that size.

They refunded me and cancelled the order then told me about it. I guess they can do the same thing if they got the price wrong.

So my guess is yes they can do that.

Advertised at the wrong price?

Or just the wrong price was on their website?

[stuartt]

it did seem a bit cheap at £35

Nobody has to sell you anything at the advertised price - including shops. But if they have it as a policy to deliberately misadvertise prices that way then they could be in trouble for doing it.

I had trouble ordering from them as well a while back. Cunts basically didn't supply for over 3 weeks so I rang to cancel and spoke to the same girl each time, took about 4 calls and 2-3 more weeks before a refund found its way into my bank account.

They're the web front for a company called Delticom, who are a huge tyre distributor. It's not likely the price was incorrect, the markup inside the tyre industry exceeds 100%.

Have a look at openeo tyres https://www.oponeo.co.uk/moto?gclid=CNjvnpfOtsQCFTPKtAodjFEAlA
I get my car tyres from them & can't fault their service

i bought a £70 quid jacket once at Debenhams and it came up as a pack of sports socks. Woman looked at me, i squinted a bit and she just shrugged her sholders and i paid £11.

I felt i gave it to the man that day. Shame they didnt honour it on your busa tyre though bud

If you got the copy of reciept then have a look on T&C's if nothing is mentioned on there website or email then you can take the matter further.

[rubyhorse2]

there will always be small print in their terms and conditions that allow for errors on pricing etc.

i got my money back today

i'm going for a better tyre of oponeo , for £76 or at least i hope it is as the prices go up & down all the time , it was £111 a few days ago .
