Website Error - 15% off everything - Winter sports equipment

sehs527

I have discovered a scripting error on a website selling sports equipment. Their discount code should give 15% for selected items only, but this is avoidable and the discount can be applied to all items without hacking into anything.

As such, I was interested to find out what my consumer rights would be if the shop refuses to sell the items I have brought at the discounted price. The discount code is active, my order has been confirmed and a receipt has been given. I have no knowledge of the legislation behind this, but have I not entered into a binding contract/agreement now that I've paid and received a receipt??

Your comments would really be appreciated. I will post the site name on here if this works out and I get my items.

They're within their rights to cancel your order and refund any monies paid-I checked this out a while ago with Trading Standards when I had a similar query
