  • I called dell and they told me it was a mistake and the guy said that dell wont be selling them for 20 pounds each and that there web people are not here at the weekend lol

    ...and what if he hadn't known about it and now cancels all the orders? Just gone from small chance to no chance.

    Between the people who phoned Dell to tell them about it and those traders who buy dozens to flog on ebay, our chances have fallen from one in a million to one in one hundred billion :o

    I dont know what it is with these big companies there seems to be alot of mispricing going on at the moment. We all get excitied and most of the time end up with nothing

    Most of the time.. I would disagree... I had done 4 buys from 4 companys and 2 gave me the item for the price and one gave be a free 12.99 voucher..

    I just ordered a brand new Ferrari for £5. It should have been £500,000. So I phoned up Ferrari and told them about their price mistake, and they cancelled my order.

    Oh silly me ;D ;D

    Martin should write a new article ... about how to make sure nobody gets a bargain ;D

  • its because people get excited over a mis price that they panic..and phone the company concerned. often drawing their attention to it. if people sat tight and didnt inform the trader, some early orders may be completed.

    often in large companies - the dispatch guys dont know how much the sales people sell them for etc etc.left hand right hand situation.

    basically if a bargain or mis price appears..order it...sit tight..say nothing..until you have a contract or its cancelled. How difficult can it be.

    bargain hunters ha! were just doing system testing for online retailers at the moment telling them of their mistakes.

    DO NOT phone and say " just saw item on website its £200 cheaper than elsewhere can you assure me i'll get it for that price"...even the most basic of traders will change the price...or put a hold on stock...no one is going to give stuff if they have been given a heads up prior to ANY being shipped. .doh !!!!!!
