Lair and Folklore prices returned to normal on Amazon.co.uk

It seems that the recent price of the Playstation 3 games Lair and Folklore listed on Amazon.co.uk for 14.95 pounds each was a mistake as now they are listed as 34.99 pounds each.

A dragon game feels so cold and un-inclusive to me, I think some warm and tender Folklore would be right up my alley. ;)

Glad I ordered mine yesterday! apparently someone emailed Amazon and they said they would honour the price that we bought it at. Can't wait to play Folklore, really enjoyed the demo, and for £15 Lair is definately worth a try.

10 - Going straight to GAME

For trade in's ordered 1 of each, Folklore was rubbish, Lair looks boring but might give it a go then I can put the money towards some real decent games on the Xbox 360 instead.

10.1 - or PS3?

just trade them in for one of the great games on the PS3... lol... you'd have to be patient though...

I only own the PS3 but the current games are just rubbish :(. I'm pretty optimistic about september and october though!

11 - dam i hope the ppl that bought those games at that cheap price still get that price

because i would love to be able to get Lair and Folklore for 30bucks a piece! Even if the games are not the best games out there its still a deal!

im sure they will give you those games and im sure someone lost there job over this mistake! If these games are good you got a great deal!

peace

UK trade descriptions act means they "must" honour the price for which things are advertized. If anyone of you come into dispute with them, direct them to the trade descriptions act........Depending on how many were pre-ordered, i`d say heads may roll.

EDIT-: Well done fella`s below.

14 - What we do about mispricings (From amazon.co.uk)

This is what i found when i searched amazon.co.uk :

What we do about mispricings

Despite our best efforts, a small number of the more than 1.5 million items in our catalogue are mispriced. Rest assured, however, that we verify prices as part of our dispatch procedures.

If an item's correct price is lower than our stated price, we charge the lower amount and send you the item.

If a product's correct price is higher than our stated price, we will cancel your order and notify you of that cancellation.

14.1 - Hmmm - is that legal?

As fare as i know, unless its plain obvious that the retailer has made a mistake, he is bound by the offer.

Then again - i don't know anything about british consumer legislation - but in most countries the consumer is protected and not the retailer.
