Brand new M&S chair for fifty whole English pence.

[GideonKipper]

Just spotted this on the M&S site. It's rather fugly but for fifty pence....

50p armchair

Got to be a mistake? Tempted to buy one and sell it on eBay .

I am going to Merry Hill M&S tomorrow to stage a protest if I don't get my phone call to arrange delivery. 2 Days they said...

Might pop to the furniture bit to test run the ugly bastard

If the ugly bastards in their take a screenshot, 50 pence and demand a price match

Me and Chaos will be up Mezza tomorrow

May I propose a chair-demanding flashmob? Meet by the monorail at 10.30.

Some bloke on hotdealsuk has ordered 177 of them. He says he will line them up and if his calculations are rignt then he wont need to drive to work anymore . Just go from chair to chair .

50p has been taken from my account. I want my fugly chair! Although I think DH won't be so impressed, he told me we didn't need one and didn't have room for one.

Surely there is always room for a 50p fugly chair?

Monorail is long gone Marms wonder what they did with the seats...

Oh how I'd laugh at 177 fugly chairs being delivered to one person!

They've taken payment from me for mine...

I think your all going to be disappointed!

Google 'invitation to treat' it's a mistake and your unlikely to get them and they don't have to honour it.

For every one concerned they might not get their chair, there's probably two people really worried that they will get their chair

I won't be up in arms not to get the chair. I don't even want a goodwill gesture. ..,, this thread has done that for me .

They need to just say " sorry, it's an error and we can't sell it at that price". The vast majority of us expect and accept that. They might get a small minority who moan but they need to stand firm on it, Legally they would be in the right.

If they get into "goodwill gestures" then why not ask if people would be prepared to forgo that gesture and donate it to a charity? I bet most of us would.

frozenfandango how can we be disappointed? We get a chair....hurrah.

We don't get a chair and moan for another five consecutive threads .... Hurrah.

Well..... I'd quite like my £2.80 back

Invitation to treat ends as soon as they have taken the money...from that point a contract is made

They've taken the money from my account...my balance and my available balance differ by.....wait for it....50p

.

Oooohhhh noooo, just got a recliner decliner email!

not with me everlong, there have been day long meetings, somewhere there are sweaty executives and cheap suits, wiping their brow and sipping the 34th cup of vended nescafe and quivering!

I've had the recliner decliner... Bum :-(
