I just can’t see that happening. This would effectively stop the vast majority of orders requiring a build. If it’s not in stock, I’m not taking the risk of a price change.
I suspect that the wording was meant to reassure people ordering prior to the tax imposition who would get the current terms and conditions and the price at the time, namely without the VAT. What I very much doubt it meant was that offers after that date would lose that protection, that’s just insane.
I'm Autistic, if I say something you find offensive, please let me know, I can guarantee it was unintentional.
I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
