someone has dropped a massive testicle...

Hmm, I would have thought that as soon as you have paid for the item (and they've taken payment), they must honour the sale. No?

I thought this to but it seems there are lots of loop holes to get out of it.
 
It's very rare that you hear of a business honouring a cock up any more, would be nice if they did though :)
 
Ah - poop - I always miss these sort of things :roll eyes:

Happened before with the die cutting machine for card making, they got the price wrong and quite a lot of people I know bought 2 and sold one off at proper price. The company upheld the mistaken price but it was back to normal the next day......and that's when I went on to look at it - doh!

what about the people whos cards WERE charged ?

Just wondering if everybody got the same email ?

Yes, I got the same email but have been charged. Well sort of. The amount going out is showing as pending but hasn't technically cleared. If it does, I will just say I'll wait for the lens to come back into stock.
 
Hmmm... A slight backtrack by Amazon. Received this e-mail today. Sounds like Amazon are washing their hands of this.




Dear Customer

We are writing regarding your recent order ********** with a third
party seller, E&G, via the Amazon.co.uk Marketplace platform.

You were erroneously sent an e-mail stating that the reason for the
order cancellation was due to a supply issue. The seller has informed
us the reason your order was cancelled was because the price for the

Despite best efforts, pricing errors can occasionally occur. All
affected orders have now been cancelled by the seller. Should you have
any further concerns in relation to the pricing error please contact
the seller directly.

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience.

We look forward to serving you again in the future.
