Argos Printed Catalog price mistake

longshotvalue

There is a price of a camera on the new argos brochure which is 100euro differant than the argos.ie website

If i go to an extra store and order will they honour the printed price, anyone any experiance of this..

Nope.. you'll pay the price in-store.

They've got it in their T&C's somewhere that even if you reserve a product at a cheaper price online, you pay the price it is in-store on the day you collect it. Regardless of whether it's more expensive or cheap on the day you go in!

No, you'll pay the price of the item the day that you buy it. It is like when you use the reserve service and they say that the price you pay is the one in the store on the day.

A price is not an offer- it's an invitation to treat.

Basic Contract law.

They can charge you whatever they want when you get to the till.

I got a dvd recorder in argos last year, had reserved it online at whatever price it was €300, but when i went to the till, she wanted €350. She called the manager, and she checked the site saw it was €300 and gave it to me for that price.

Not exactly the same scenario but it worked for me anyway

Similar here. I booked a Canon camera for €500 and when I got to the store (and they finally had stock) it was €600.
The nice lady looked at my print out of my reservation and gave it to me for €500

She was my new friend that day.

sometimes price reductions are not updated on the stores computers as quickly as they are on the website.

No, they won't have to honour it as it is more than likely human error, usually when argos prices are wrong if you look in the laminated copies of the argos books that they have in store, they will have tiny little updated price stickers covering the old prices. Maybe you'll be lucky though, it's worth a shot!
