The only other thing to note is that according to Iomega website, they have no 200GB External drive with USB and Firewire listed, only a 200GB USB External drive (RRP £85+VAT)

Actually they do, and at almost the correct price to the penny with a zero missing at the end of the £s ....

OK, I've gone for it.

Ths sort of misprice seems to happen quite often at e-buyer but I have never had a punt before.

How do e-buyer deal with this sort of thing?

Cancel the orders and say nothing?
Cancel and send an apology letter?
Let the first few slip through?
Charge the real price to your card without letting on?
Etc. Etc.

Anyone ever actually take delivery of a bargain like this from e-buyer?
