    I think it was definitely an error in pricing as it was save £71 and on sale at £9. Should possibly have been save £9 or something like that. I tried to add one to my basket and the wheel went round for ages and then it flashed on the screen as £70 then disappeared. I think it might have been the Terrain Sierra 20" which is now showing at £60. Didn't think I would get one as once a few people try I think it would flag as something wrong with pricing. Thanks OP.

    Yes they can cancel it and they will. They never tend to honour wrongly priced items.

    I've read over and over again they make the " mistake" of msipricing but surely trading standards should have something to say??

    It would be looked at as a invitation to treat. A customer offers Tesco £9 for the bike. They have not dispatched the goods yet, so a contract has not been formed. Tesco upon dispatch have accepted the invitation to treat offer and the contract is formed.
