Dear customer
We refer to your order for** - 8ft Bouncy Castle with Slide at 70p, which we recently received.
The Focus website contains a large number of products and it appears that, despite our best efforts, the price of this particular product stated on the Focus website at the time you placed your order was incorrect. The correct price is £70.
This discrepancy came to light after you placed your order. Whilst we automatically charge the correct price where the price quoted is more than the correct price we do reserve the right to reject orders where a product's correct price is higher than the price stated on the website.
In this instance the price shown on the Focus website was so significantly below the correct price that we have decided that we must reject your order, in accordance with paragraph 5 of our Conditions of Business.
The error has now been corrected and if you still wish to order this product at the correct price please would you place a further order.
Please accept our apologies for the disappointment and any inconvenience caused by this error, which we deeply regret.
Yours sincerely
