Ha, I was a right idiot. I clicked Buy on the Founders version, got really excited when I saw it was going through, then saw it was going to Scan. Thought, oh I must have clicked the wrong icon! Went back, no longer available to buy. What a muppet.

That's unfortunate - it wasn't particularly well-publicised (or at all) on the main website that it would take you to an authorised partner for sales. As I (and many of us) found out, getting to Scan with the card in your basket isn't necessarily a guarantee that you would have been able to buy one anyway. By the time I clicked the 'Buy' button it told me the contents of my cart had vanished!

I had also managed to use a seperate browser to go directly to the AIB cards on the Scan website immediately as they went on sale, managed to add the Zotac card as it was the same price as the FE (Ł469), but when I went to pay for it, it had disappeared from my basket and then when I refreshed the page the price had "mysteriously" increased by Ł60!
