    Think the order has gone through - have just received an email confirmation with order number etc.

    I've ordered from argos a few times and have never had a order comfirmation from them - not even in the junk mail!
    I make my order and the courier guy just arrives within a week.
    I dont think I will want to contact them on this one though, I'll just wait patientley and fingers cross there will be a knock at the door with someone holding my bush tv!!!

    I've ordered one. As tempted as I am to order load I won't.

    If they ring up to tell me it's a misprice I'll tell them that I will be in contact with my local citizens' advice bureau and/or Trading Standards. I don't pretend to understand the law, but they do and will know whether the terms and conditions are legal or not.

    Maybe they'll give me it to avoid the bother of dealing with Trading Standards. If not, I'll definitely be calling them.

    I wonder how many orders they've received? Bet this offer has been on loads of forums!!
    Maybe they'll offer some kind of price reduction. Even if they dont, I wont be pursuing it. 49p is just ridiculous!!

    TBH i don't think threatening them with Trading Standards would do anything. You'd be hard pushed to convince a court you genuinely believed the price was the correct price. If they honour it great, but if not, i don't see any point in pursuing.
