I ordered 4. I cannot see them honouring this one. Worth a shot though as theres nothing in my account I used. Good find ch33z

**biggy7** · 2nd May 2003

good find, but the �0 ones ae not in stock and i doubt very much they will honour

Seem to have loads of stuff for �0.00 on the site.

I've ordered a DVD Server (�0.00), and a blank DVD-R disk. The total came to just under �20 because of the weight of the server ;-) What's my position if they charge me for the full �20? Is that the point at which the contract is formed?

i think they caught on now cos all the �0.00 ones have na next to em rather than buy

**dannyboy** · 2nd May 2003

No there's still lots with 0.00 and buy next to them, you have to scroll down a fair bit to see them though

I think it must be the software they use, if it not in stock or is available to pre-order then the price is �0.00.

I doubt they will honour, only seem like a small company.

If a company advertise a price on a website, and you place an order for that item, they have to honour the price quoted (as long as a contract has been entered into, ie: money been debited or email confirmation sent), or they must pay damages along with a refund....

BUT

In this case, although there's a contract (confirmation email), no money actually changes hands, so the situation MAY be different. When trade takes place in the UK, there must be 3 aspects:

Offer - Self explanatory

Acceptance - Self explanitory

Consideration - This means that something must change hands for the goods accepted. In this case, there is no money changing hands, and therefore they have a getout clause under UK law.

I cannot see you getting far with this one, as, apart from the above reasons, there is also a "mistake of fact" clause, which covers company's who advertise "obviously incorrect prices". �0 for a 15 bay Tower falls into this catagory

Good luck tho

no because your only allowed to purchase 6 tickets on one card, the person who sold them 2 you fucked up letting you take 8.

Having said that it was a bit wanky of them to take them back after they should have let it slide.

I assume this was ticketmaster?
