Ordered a set of alloys and winter tyres from tyreleader for 72h. dispatch. A day later, they email to say they had cancelled the order. The tyres were still showing in stock. I emailed them to ask why, they said the tyres "There was a problem with stock. Please feel free to order again now".

They have now put the price up by 15quid a tyre.I emailed them and they just said I'd have to re-order at the new price. I also have to wait 5 days for the credit card refund.

It seems pretty out of order, anything I can do?

Thanks for the warning. I have traders who do that, so know not to use them.

By the way, Amazon did something similar once and I sent them a very snotty email saying they'd lost a customer. They then sold me the item at the previous price. Worth a try with tyreleader??

I tried, they told me to swivel 🙁

Ordered from Blackcircles, ended up cheaper 🙂

A lot of the cheap deals in Tyreleader are for 2010/2011 DOT, so don't have much life in them anyway.
