    Except when you put it in your basket it says "Offer of the week, save £30-£40" so is this a misprice??
    Either way it's a pretty good price, and it plays MP3 and WMA files as well.
    Just ordered mine - wonder if it's identical to the one on the Ministry of Sound website?

    It isn't showing up on the 'offer of the week' page and is shown as £49.99 until you put it into basket, so yes I think it's a misprice.

    Medion have a personal cd\mp3 player on their website for £14.99. Not as nice looking as the MOS granted but still a good price.
    Can't do a direct link so go here https://www.medionshop.co.uk/ and enter in mp3 to the search tool. It comes up as the first hit.
    Cheers

    Am listening to a lot of Boots takeover talk - it's a definite. If nothing else, their Big Chief Nigel should be keelhauled for the aberration:'complementarity', pronounced without a blush at 8am on R5.

    I'm planning to go and spend my £126 of points this weekend just in case! Not sure what the legal position is, but as I understand it these are just points and have no cash value in law, they are also the property of the company and can be withdrawn at any time?
    But I'd be surprised if they pulled a scheme like this - it's what's kept their sales going for the last few years.

    That's a very good point actually.
    What if you buy stuff using the card points, then they withdraw it, then you need a refund? What's the stand there do we think?
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.
