Your only supposed to blow the Bloody doors off !

Ah well its gone and been broken , Halo 3 has been broken by the one and only , Yes the company I work for , Argos ...

I was flicking through thhe store messages earlier in usual fashion when I come across one that says Halo 3 , DO NOT SELL ...


Now with any new release we get this and it basically dont sell it until such and such a date , if we do it can damage the relationships with the developers etc .. So I thought nothing of it

That was until I got home ...

There has always been a way around "blocked from sale" items via reserving it and then buying it via the reservation ...

Well this is what has been done several times , Argos Issued this statement ...

We are aware that a genuine administrative error has resulted in a small number of cases where Halo 3 has already been sold. We are currently ensuring that there are no further sales of this product in-store until the official release date, Wednesday 26 September. We have already taken steps to ensure that Halo 3 is unavailable on the Argos web site for reservation or purchase until the correct date."

"We accept that this incident falls short of the usual high standards we aim to achieve and operate within and we will be taking steps to ensure this doesn’t happen in the future."

Although I work for them , I cant help but Laugh Out Loud to this one ...
