Huw,
You're definitely right! Caron and I were looking at the shop on Monday with
the intention of placing an order for Christmas. In fact, Caron was incensed
that 4721-4723 weren't available in the UK and was writing a note to TLC about
it, but her machine crashed before she could send it...
On a more serious note, I believe that there is a legal issue here. You entered
into a contract with TLC to supply the advertised goods - they shipped you
something of lesser value. I'm believe that comes under the auspices of the
Trades Description Act...
Was there any note accompanying the order explaining the change?
Cheers,
Kev
