They can't make you pay a higher price when they realise the cock-up, can they?

I've ordered one. Doubt we'll actually get it for that price, but if we do I will cover it in a throw to hide the fugliness.

Novia · 08/01/2014 21:14

My order has gone through and I got a confirmation email! But doubt they'd honour it - I think if it's an obvious mistake and they refund you, they can legally withdraw the offer!

Looks like Jim Royle's chair!

Dumpylump · 08/01/2014 21:14

I'm on the point of pressing "confirm" to buy one....but actually, I don't know what the hell I'd do with it!
I wonder if mil would like one......

GideonKipper · 08/01/2014 21:15

I know I know, it's awful! But someone out there would like it!

I got an error message.

GoofyIsACow · 08/01/2014 21:15

Ahhh I just had two in my besket and it refreshed my page and they have gone!

LadySnapcase · 08/01/2014 21:15

I've ordered one...not expecting them to honour it but worth a shot Grin

GideonKipper · 08/01/2014 21:15

Flog it Dumpy.

I've got a confirmation email too.

I'm thinking they'll refund the 50p once they realise but if they do honour it I will be recovering it to match my bedroom and using it to lounge in during night feeds once DC3 arrives :)

OhTheDrama · 08/01/2014 21:16

Mine gone through lol! DH is shaking is head at me!

GoofyIsACow · 08/01/2014 21:18

'They like ugly chairs' Grin

Katz · 08/01/2014 21:19

Can't decide whether to buy one or not!

justkeepplodding · 08/01/2014 21:19

Done...Shame its ugly, EBay here I come!!!!

justmuddlingalong · 08/01/2014 21:20

Confirmation of email received here too. Worth a punt. Smile

EmpireBiscuit · 08/01/2014 21:20

What if they actually arrive? Where the hell do you put them?

SantanaLopez · 08/01/2014 21:20

Even 50p is too much for that!

Norudeshitrequired · 08/01/2014 21:20

It went to the checkout but I couldn't bring myself to buy such an ugly chair - even for 50p.

BrokenFairylights · 08/01/2014 21:20

This is hilarious I've just ordered 2 and it's gone throughBlush not exactly sure what we will do with them though, I imagine that there will be a lot of recliner chairs on beats in a few weeks time Grin

MiloBelle · 08/01/2014 21:20

I have just bought one too! Don't know where the hell I'm going to put it though Wink

MarthasHarbour · 08/01/2014 21:21

I cant believe I am seriously considering this.....

wannabestressfree · 08/01/2014 21:21
