Re: Computer Prices Gone Nuts
I'm trying to buy a couple now, but the site is terribly slow. I wonder why
Edit: half gig memory sticks are free as well. Looking for a mobo and video card now

Re: Computer Prices Gone Nuts
I bet the site has a little "E&OE" message somewhere to cover their backs.

Re: Computer Prices Gone Nuts
There is no such processor as an AMD Thunderbird "3300" XP.
IIRC, the last Thunderbird was the AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1400.

Errors and Omisions Excepted\Excluded.
It's placed on various documents as a "get out clause", it essentially says that the contract or document is legit. But that should there be something in it that shouldn't technically be in there. Then it can be revised at a later date - technically, without consent of both parties. Obviously, in this case the revision would apply to the price.

It doesn't actually matter because (presuming it's a UK site, given the pound signs others have used) under UK sales law a stated price is only an "invitation to treat" (ie negotiate a deal as in "treaty"), it's not binding on either party.
Even if you managed to get through to the checkout section of the site and put your address/ card details etc in, AIUI it's not counted as a contract, even if you get an automated acknowledgement of the sale, until a person actually deals with it and accepts your offer of payment.
Companies *have*, in the past, honoured such deals if there's goodwill/ good publicity involved in it, but they're not obligated to by law.
