Crying over my forever TV Unit, AIBU?

I loved it so much. I first bought the sideboard, and then just as I went to purchase the TV Unit a few weeks back, it had become the dreaded 'Out Of Stock'.

I keep walking through my lounge thinking how good it would've looked and feel intense sorrow.

AIBU? Has anyone else felt this kind of sadness over a physical object?

I keep contacting Very but they say it doesn't look like they're getting them back in any time soon - they're hugely popular though.

Thing that irks me is I'm always checking to see if it'll come back into stock, yet some cheeky fecker has apparently grabbed one at 2.20pm today?! How could that be?! Sad

No probs. I'm sure you will get one. Keep checking very and eBay. YANBU as I feel same if I finally decide on an object only to be thwarted. Good luck Flowers

That used to be sold at homebase when i worked there. Homebase and argos sold the same furniture. Have you checked argos?

BeautyGoesToBenidorm · 17/07/2017 22:16

Have you tried Littlewoods? Same company, same stock, prices can vary though!

SaucyJack · 17/07/2017 22:21

This any good?

Amanduh · 17/07/2017 22:22

I'm with you OP! I did the same thing this week with this pink side table and on Very too. I keep tracking it in longing only to see the out of stock banner every time :( you have my commiserations!

Have checked everywhere and can't find it, no Sad

SaucyJack that's exactly it! But it's out of stock in Littlewoods too.

It's going for less than £99 at the moment and I'd happily ring to offer double/triple that if they'd offer me one Grin

Oops, they're fibbing. They don't have any.

BusyBeez99 · 26/07/2017 20:28

It's in stock on Saucy's link

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 26/07/2017 20:29

7 people all looking at the link... All of them mumsnetters Grin

Redglitter · 26/07/2017 20:32

The link to Littlewoods shows it bring in stock. Try adding it to your basket

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 26/07/2017 20:35

Never make the mistake of liking the same thing as me.
The moment I stop dithering and decide to buy is the moment the manufacturer decides to discontinue the item.

UntilTheCowsComeHome · 26/07/2017 20:39

You can buy it on Very in a two piece deal, perhaps you could buy that and sell the other unit on eBay if you don't want it.

Fluffyears · 26/07/2017 20:44

I still mourn thenolacensts I wanted for my new house. Beautiful smoked glitter glass from next. DP said 'wait!' I'm never listening to him again!

SnowiestMountain · 26/07/2017 20:50

QUICK OP!! I just put it in my basket and tried to check out on your behalf, it's there and you can do it! I absolutely promise I removed it and it's there and you can have it!!

inkydinky · 26/07/2017 21:13

Currently having the same problem with a dining table that I decided to save for rather than buy on credit. That was a mistake Sad

OhBeggerItsMorning · 26/07/2017 21:47

It's in stock on very right now, have just checked. Also available as a set with the sideboard so if you can't get it on it's own can you afford the set if they are still available and sell on the sideboard?

Just keep checking very every 5 minutes if it keeps going out of stock.

Hope you get it.

TupperwareTat · 26/07/2017 21:50

YSNBU

Get it now. I remember the pain.

TupperwareTat · 26/07/2017 21:56

I cant bear the wait

DID YOU GET IT Shock

qwertyuiop1234 · 26/07/2017 22:10

I want to know if the OP got it!! I completely understand how attached you can get to physical objects, I'm forever ordering things instantly out of fear they'll go out of stock.
My mum waits a few weeks then is gutted when she can't get it!

BlueIsYou · 27/07/2017 07:17

Okay ladies... Well, I GOT IT!!!! Grin

So happy! Thank you all so much. I had been checking twice a day every day to see if it'd appear back in stock.

I love it so much and I'm so happy to Flowers
