I'm trying to buy some wardrobes from littlewoods so was quite happy to find this wardrobe (http://www.littlewoods.com/rf/navigation/product.do?Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&SNtt=bali&groupId=404333182&Nu=this_product&SNtk=littlewoods_search&Np=1&SN=85+103&Ntt=404333182&D=404333182&Ntk=group_search&Dx=mode%2bmatchall&thisprod=370923918&N=85+103&Nty=1&Mis_item_id=15&Mis_item_loc_id=1&product=370923918) from £79.00 however whenever I select the item it shows a minimum of £149.00 , it does the same on other items advertised also from £XXX but the minimum is £YYY.

This happens even when selecting to pay outright so its not down to interest.

Is their something I'm doing incorrectly or are littlewoods blatantly lying over the cost if items ?:confused:

    But there is no item starting at £79.00 the cheapest is £149.00 so how can they state its starts from £79.00 ?? I could understand if there was a list of options with different prices but there isn't.

    Database mismatch. Front end db shows a set of prices, when you add to bag or view product details it checks the current price with the back end d/b and corrects the price accordingly.

    I saw these the other day, it was the Beech-Effect that was cheap but they seem to be sold out now.

    it always the way.
    same on sale items where the popular and cheaper one is sold out or only available in unpopular sizes so the higher price is in place
