Just spoken to a nice younglady, cancelling all orders due to a pricing error. The item will be available again at the correct price if we want to order.

Well, that's not in the terms and conditions... Only able to cancel if not in stock, according to the T&Cs of my order and not the new, amended ones. This is very interesting...

I know... She quoted the new terms and I said well they weren't the ones I agreed to originally - I said so and she's talking to her manager again..

They're not taking the out of stock approach now - which has actually put them in a bigger problem.

they would have covered there asses over the last few days by speaking to the legal eagles.

It is worth reading because there are remarkable similarities between the Kodak case and the Apple one - a bit of a web campaign might make them capitulate.
