Seriously tempted! How much do you reckon it would get on eBay if it hadn't even been unwrapped? bearing in mind there will probably be hundreds of them on there.

I read that as the Richmond Hamond and thought oooh he made a chair! I'm tired.

GideonKipper · 08/01/2014 21:06

It's very ugly Hector, but it's fifty pence. Cheaper than a loaf of bread!

Oh look, even if you only get 99p for it, as long as you put it as 'collection only' you're not going ot lose out by buying and e-baying and you might make a nice profit.

BohemianGirl · 08/01/2014 21:07

Buy one get one half price - did you read the top bar?

dickyduckydido · 08/01/2014 21:08

I just ordered one to see what happens!!!

Truffkin · 08/01/2014 21:08

I've 'bought' 2. I should imagine they will withdraw them from sale once they realise the mistake!

OhTheDrama · 08/01/2014 21:09

So tempted to buy and donate to the Oxfam furniture shop near us.

MrsPnut · 08/01/2014 21:09

Did anyone else notice that the also viewed items at the bottom of the page were all the fugly metallic heel court shoes that are on another thread on here :o

BitchyFestiveFace · 08/01/2014 21:09

Hmm I just put one in my basket and got an error message. I don't think they will honour this price Grin

Buy one get one half price - so you can get two M&S armchairs for 75p?

It's obviously a big balls up and they'll retract it like other retailers have done in similar circumstances. Or is it?

My order has gone through as well Smile

WetDogLovesHubert · 08/01/2014 21:11

Currently persuading my DH to buy one Grin

Lottiedoubtie · 08/01/2014 21:11

I'm tempted! Recovering it would be cheaper than buying one in a nice fabric...

SoonToBeSix · 08/01/2014 21:11

I ordered twoGrin

Bearfrills · 08/01/2014 21:12

Mine has gone through too ...

GideonKipper · 08/01/2014 21:12

You've actually ordered them?

Dithering here.

TheFantasticFixit · 08/01/2014 21:13

Oh my eyes, it's bloody hideous. As much as I want to get it just o see whether it would turn up, that thing is so fugly I fear I would never get over the sight of it if it did!
