I managed to order one for £7.32 and another for £26.27. Hope they honour it lol :D

What a shame, thought this thread was going to be about well fit, half-naked birds. :(

 

Good luck with the PC type thing....

This happened at Argos years ago whith £700 Wide screen TV being ssold for £3.

 

I dont remember if they sent them out though.

It also happened with Kodak Digi cameras I think - there was a big fuss about that sometime last year. Can't remember the exact outcome though.

in all cases they were not honoured, and amazon have it in their TOS not to honour it. they may give you some vouchers though

Its the magic line...

For those that don't know it means Errors and Omissions Excepted, a bit of a blanket sentence covering most cock-ups on invoicing and pricing!

It can also depend on whether they are deemed to have 'accepted' the order, ie. sent email confirmation, charged credit cards etc. I remember the Kodak thing went to court - but it was in the US .... (nuff said)

LOL

I tried to order 2 but they shut down the site whilst I was doing it :(

 

This made the 6pm news on BBC if anyone saw it :D
