Bargain/cock up on Amazon!!

[ehasler]

Check this out - it's obviously a cock up, but Amazon are advertising HP ipaqs for about £7!!!

Does anyone know what the score is with them having to deliver the goods at this price?

[mrflibbles]

I'm bloody getting one!

[tuffer]

Just bought one, will now wait with bated breath for the email informing me of there mistake!!!!

[Don]

I'm tempted to experiment and try buying one.

I suspect that one might find that the order could be fulfilled...

[mrsd]

Well I've just tried ordering one and instructed my Amex CRA to block the transaction if it's over £20, so I'll let you know how I get on

[ehasler]

I've ordered two, and got my confirmation email back... Should be interesting to see what they do!

From their 'pricing policy' page:

Amazon said:
If an item's correct price is higher than our stated price, we contact you for instructions before dispatching.

Print out your order and the original page perhaps if they make a cock up of this we can use Watchdog for something useful then

Ive ordered one its about a tenner inc delivery, is it illegal for them to take any more than that from my account
