Cut Price Dictionary on Amazon

Hi
I don't know how many readers use dictionaries (for crosswords etc), but for those who do there is an amazing offer on Amazon HERE
The Chambers is probably the best English dictionary around, and the deluxe version, RRP £40, is on sale at Amazon for £5.39. You can't buy a paperback book for that.
I assume the price is a mistake, but that's all I paid. :T

I've just ordered one, I've been looking for a good dictionary, I don't think it hurts for anyone to learn more vocabulary and ensure they are using words in the right context.Consider anything only don't cry!0

Ordered...
now as long as I don't get the one that really is valued at £8.99 as listed on the site.. I'm happy
Edit, have just seen the Thesaurus, priced the same, hardback, over 1100 pages, I'm wondering if it's another misprice!

Both for under £11!!0 -
8 Jan - And now they've spotted the mistake and put the price up to £24, so it's too late for anybody who hasn't yet ordered :-( Well done to those who did.0

OMG it was the thumb index version too!! Oh poo, really miffed that I missed this one, would have ordered like a shot if I'd seen in time.

well my dictionary dispatched today - charged at £5.39

Always good to find an offer the masses don't go for - much higher chance of getting it then :beer:0
