They have advertised it at a certain price, and we have all paid for it at that price.
From the Trading Standards website:
"Offences
If the seller is in business (rather than a private seller), he may have committed a criminal offence if he:
*
sells goods which are unsafe;
*
has given a false description to the goods i.e. a car sold with incorrect mileage (clocked car);
*
gives a false description to the services he is providing e.g. falsely claiming to be a member of a trade association;
*
advertises a misleading price;
*
displays a sign which states 'no refunds'."

Read the article - if it didn't work like this, the seller would be offering to enter into a contact with the entire world.

and businesses.
EDIT: Also, the case cited in that is from 1960. That would mean that it would now be superseded by the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (as amended by the Sale & Supply of Goods Act 1994 and the Sale and Supply of Goods to Consumers Regulations 2002). No?
I am not trying to get into a row though, I am not a lawyer, but it seems that would be the case to me?

Reading through the Trading Standards site, it does seem to explicitly differentiate between a "seller" and a "commercial business".

a BBC article regarding Argos mistakenly advertising a TV for sale at £3 in which it says:
'Argos does not have to sell you a television for £3.
However, if the company accepts your order electronically then there may be a valid contract.
A customer who gave Argos his credit card number received what was called a Unique Order Code. That may be proof of a contract, although Argos said all items were "subject to availability"'
An order number is not visible at present, but it stands to reason they must apply a unique order number to each order..

As far as I know, they are even bigger than Amazon now, and they are always very cheap, as they are based on Jersey so tax free pretty much. All the prices are inclusive of delivery too.
I have never had a single problem with them ever!

Personally I think this is a huge error and trying to remember a couple of units of business law I did 15 years ago combined with a telling clause in their reciept as follows :
Please note: This is an 'open' order and has not been processed by our dispatch department. No contract for the sale of any product will subsist between you and Play.com until Play.com dispatches the product(s) ordered. We will confirm that the product(s) have been dispatched by a confirmation email. This confirmation e-mail amounts to an acceptance by Play.com of your offer to buy goods from Play.com or a third party supplier that is engaged on your behalf by Play.com (whether or not you receive that e-mail).
I dont think they are legally bound to give us anything. However in the interests of not looking like complete asreholes, they may well honour their orders for whatever their stock levels were and take the loss on it.
