    Fingers crossed. Hope this doesn't turn into a 20 page discussion when they cancel all the orders and everyone starts banging on about legal rights and contract breaking blah blah blah! What a carry on...

    Good spot though. Well done.

    my view is if I get it, I get it, If not, then I ain't paying £139 for it.
    If you can't say something nice - SHUT UP :p

    What if they give confirmation of the order???

    The contract doesnt exist between you and HMV until they dispatch the goods, so no-one has a chance of arguing any cancellations with this one.

    Worried though that if you give c/card details and they realise there is an error then they charge you full whack!!!
    If you have ordered you will receive confirmation and that stated £9.99 so you cannot be charged full amount as you have proof

    I don't think anyone sensible has a problem when they admit it was an error, refer to the terms and conditions and don't charge/reserve funds from anyones account. It's cases like the WHSmith one where they tried to cover up and lie their way out of their screw up that annoyed people more than anything.

    Pretty sure they won't honour this, not only a pricing error but it's not a pre-order item at all, it's been out since 2003. Perhaps it's something along the lines of they've just run out/stopped selling them and this page has screwed up rather than having been deleted from their systems?

    Ah well, worth a go anyway. Nothing to lose.

    Thanks for this - great offer if it comes off.

    One thing - it's not the entire collection as stated by the OP though - as there were a lot more than just 18 films made.
