Erk, and I just ordered Company of Heroes and a season of Little Britain for 17 euro, and I thought I was being generous by not absolutely fleecing them

Don't see there being any chance of this actually working, but sure I'll try anyway!

My sentiments exactly. There's no way you can lose really.

The Walsho · 27-09-2006 9:53pm

I can imagine some new play.com intern getting fired for this, cause he forgot to carry the one.

randomchild · 27-09-2006 9:53pm

Dont play charge 1.49 everytime you order something? (It reeks havoc with my 3v cards)

Yeah maybe they'll recoup some money from the saps payin 1299.99 for Jamelia

mondeoman · 27-09-2006 9:55pm

correct price now come up at the checkout:( (dvds)

Basq · 27-09-2006 9:56pm

I'm being honest for once and not ordering anything.

Simply because i'm not gonna kid myself into thinking it'll work - plus Play have a manual processing procedure on high value items (including DVD boxsets) - these types of orders have to be manually processed to safeguard them from situations like this.

So it won't happen - they'll have all their staff working overtime cancelling all these orders.

So it just means that genuine orders will be delayed by a few days while they trawl through the hundreds of thousands of dodgy orders.

Yep... buzzkill, i know!

dingding · 27-09-2006 9:58pm

Thanks OP.

Now I just feel guilty

Let's hope karma is punishing you for all those other times you tries to order wrongly priced stuff and it works this one time.

Talk about fool's hope.....

They don't charge me that. Maybe you paid through sterling when you could do it. There's a charge when paying with other currencies afaik.

The Walsho · 27-09-2006 10:06pm

I ordered a DVD and a book, overall came to 8 euro, where they would usually be about 30-40. I think these would have a better chance of going through rather than the i-pods, PS3s etc.

Ruu_Old · 27-09-2006 10:07pm

Did anyone actually order a heap of stuff? Ye are going to get a rude awakening when Play sort it out, I don't envy you when opening up the credit card bill.

higster · 27-09-2006 10:07pm

They've coppped one...at checkout...
