Tv @ Argos for £0.49p ** WRONG PRICE **

Sorry if this has already been posted

Did anyone on the news tonight the report regarding a TV that Argos advertised on their site for £0.49p instead of £349 and loads of people placed orders then after a surge of orders Argos twigged that the price was wrong and cancelled the order and people are going mad as their money has deen debited from their cards.

I thought it was amusing that a women on the news purchased 4 TV's and the reporter asked her did she not think it strange for a TV to be £0.49p and she replied well you can travel alot of miles accross Europe for £0.99p.

Who would actually believe that this was not a mistake, even so surely Argos have a contract to supply the customers who have actually paid for the goods

The old saying goes " If it's sound's too good to be true then it probably is"
