Yep, agreed !

I even missed out on a pricing error for some lexmark printers – should
be £235, my friends got them for £35 !!! – and that’s with having
friends who work for them !

Heck, I knew I shouldn’t have left my job at insight …

I have two very good friends that work for insight, and I can speak to
them in confidence, so, I called him up and asked him, he said that
there is a chance they will be shipped … it’s a 50-50 thing tho, but
he’s trying to get a few (with him being staff and all..)

Trouble is though that if it has been on the DVD Forums as well as here
then you are looking at orders for one product that is way above the
norm, since the site does state that they are “to order”. Someone is
going to clock the high order and query it I would imagine due to the
high value and/or the unusual activity on their Kodak account. I doubt
very much indeed that you will ever see them added to which is the T&C
which allows Insight a get out even *after* the order has been delivered
the way I read it!

>From Insight T&C:

Insight makes every effort to ensure that all prices and descriptions
quoted in its catalogue and on its website are correct and accurate.
However, the frenetic tempo of e-commerce makes it inevitable that
mistakes will occasionally occur. In the case of a manifest error or
omission, Insight will be entitled to rescind the contract,
notwithstanding that it has already accepted the Customer's order and/or
received payment from the Customer. Insight's liability in that event
will be limited to the return of any money the Customer has paid in
respect of the order. In the case of a manifest error in relation to
price, the Customer will be entitled to purchase the goods by paying the
difference between the quoted price and the correct price, as confirmed
in writing by Insight after the manifest error has been discovered.

As one of my favoured expressions goes **DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!**
