apparently the website got out of it as they take the order via the net but a confirmation of the order must be sent out afterwards. I am guessing the fine print says that the company has the right to reserve numbers based on quantity etc…

Who in their right mind would spell the word “right” as write?

Screw you! I’m not a gold digger. I just wanted 200 new computers for personal reasons.

F* that if I was the company I’d be furious if I was forced to sell computers for 25 bucks, people had to realize that price was obviously too good to be true.

In most circumstances a product on with a price tag is not an offer. It is what we call an Invitation to Treat offers. You ordering the item generally means, if the company have the item in stock you will take it for that price.

There are a few other issues here. Firstly and most important, is who in their write mind would beleive a computer is 25 bucks. Clearly there is a mistake somewhere in the chain. The person trying to purchase would be aware of that mistake by the crazy price. Forcing the company to accept the offers, would amount to unjust enrinchment to the persons trying to buy.

Just a typo, which a few gold diggers thought they would try to make a profit off. Nice try

Dunno about the law in their country but in the UK if you price an item wrong then the company doesn’t need to sell them at the price of the error. Even though most people think they do they don’t have to.

So does this mean that they will have to sell the computers at the lower price and take the hit or not 100 million???????
