I was told that NO store in Australia had them before the sale - but most stores
were claiming sold-out (as to not have to give rainchecks) Northland (which told
me this) was giving rainchecks (they have to if its not in stock before the sale

Airportwest to give me a raincheck (they refused - but I tried the line
Northland gave me - nil stock, and they bit (if its true or not I still don't
know)
Hearing here about K-marts slack raincheck policy I when back to Northland the
other day, raincheck in hand. (no stock on shelves) but they had some ready to
raincheck in layby (about 5) the lady their told me they had not been done yet
due to time (and most likly would NOT BE!). So post sale I have one MF on layby
(to xmas - they give it at the sale offered layby) at the sale price! Next
Airportwest!~
