Amazon Sells IPAQs for $10

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the one-click dept.

TomHoward writes "In a pretty huge blunder, amazon.co.uk have put the HP IPAQ H1910 (RRP about £300) for sale for just over £7.32 (plus postage and packing). It's very hard to get through to their site right now, but if you're quick you can have a look at their blunder here." Don't bother clicking through, Amazon has taken the items down.

    If I posted an ad to sell my car at $12,000 and the newspaper printed it as $1,200 -- and I was the owner of the newspaper too -- then I would honor the error.

    It's not like HP has to sell the unit at the low price, it's Amazon. They already bought the units from HP at wholesale. They, in turn, sell them to the public at retail. If they err on their site then they should honor that.
