This is a bit like the IPAQ scenario with Amazon a couple of years back. Amazon published a price with a zero missing. It worked out about £20 instead of £200.

There was a big thing in the press about it and people were ordering 5 or 6 of them. I think the early people got the orders fulfilled but those buying lots were rejected. It was clearly a mistake and they got around it by saying that the deal is not accepted until the item is shipped. Not a lot you can do about that I am afraid.
