Do we think the rattan stuff is actually in stock and going to be listed today??

I'm irritated by this too as I've tried a few times with no luck, didn't even get notified about today (I'm subscribed to their emails)
I could stretch my budget but more expensive items aren't available either, I've been wanting to buy garden furniture for two years and we're still stuck with camping chairs!

Yes I've noticed this, only the £400+ available near me. Just can't afford it. There are people on Facebook saying between themselves and family members they've managed 4 and are selling 3 of them on eBay! I know there's no way for Aldi to know if someone buying is going to do this but this time I am going to stomp my feet and say it's so unfair and I'm frustrated.

Really fed-up with not getting one again. Aldi should limit the egg chair to one per customer, I certainly won't be paying some greedy person's inflated price on ebay.

I was in the queue and theres nothing on it. Im waiting for their sofa/2chairs/table which im hoping will come available next month. My friend bought hers last may. They haven’t been on at all thus year and i missed out on a set on Facebook 3 weeks ago. That seller must have bought them last year. They were still in the box!

I just logged in to see what all the fuss was about. Can't even see what's being sold, just taken directly to a queue page. It says the egg chair is sold out, so presumably similar to 4 April.

@sweetchillidumplings the website does limit sales to one per customer. I presume it's a combination of hype, quick profit, but also just a complete lack of garden furniture - apparently a lot is due to the increased costs of shipping to the UK with covid + Brexit. That's the reason IKEA have given.
I've been regularly checking websites such as John Lewis & IKEA as well as Argos, b&m etc since last summer. Some things look like they're in stock but look properly and it's usually only the tables that go with a set or an extra like a modular chair piece that are actually available to buy. Thats on ££££ garden furniture too. The only ones I've seen actually for sale are expensive items on sites I've never heard of and don't want to buy from due to the likelihood of poor customer service (eg third party Amazon sellers based outside the EU)

I finally ordered an egg chair yesterday, will see if it turns up. Managed to add mine to basket at 8.00am, it took almost 20 mins to actually get to check to checkout and pay page.
