You mentioned that in the UK if someone advertises a product incorrectly they have to sell it to you at that price. This is not the case, from memory and this maybe slightly wrong, but I believe the advertised price is known as 'a solicitation to offer' you can scream and shout at the checkout all you like, but no contract has been entered into. Both parties have to enter a contract, and if the seller says it was priced incorrectly and they do not want to enter that contract, there is little you can do about it. Hope this helps however unfair it seems. Gaz. Stu just a response to something you said on this podcast.
