Canon EOS 550D Inc 18-135mm and 55-250mm IS Lens Kit for just £168.98
Does the 'site have to honour this price? I've ordered one and my mate's ordered two. (8+)

No I don't think they do, not if it's an obvious mistake, which this obviously is, I mean who the hell would pay that much for a Canon? :lol:

It's not obvious to me as I've no idea how much Canon stuff costs.

Neither do I, but it's still pretty obvious Mark. I read something about it on 'Which' magazine's website a while ago, they don't have to honour it I'm sure.

That's very recent because they were in stock when I made my order.

I think that the rule is that if it is clearly a wrong price then no they do not have to accept it. Though once they have accepted it then technically they do.

Seems like a fair price for a Canon... ;)

If the order isn't accepted at the checkout, then when is it?
[/wishful thinking]

I would love to know how many orders are placed until someone notices on Monday morning. :lol:

Same here. If by some miracle dabs does honour the order then I'll bet they'd lose thousands.

Have you thought about them possibly deducting the correct amount for the camera from your card?
