Incorrect Price on The Website

Hi all,

I came across this extremely juicy deal for dining chairs towards the end of the recent click frenzy in July 2021. The product was at 50% discount and somehow the system offered me 75% discount towards the end of the sale, say in the last 5 minutes.

I assume, there was a system issue on the Vendors website, and I just completed the transactions. I got an invoice for higher price (with 50% discount) but the amount that was deducted from my account was lower due to the 75% discount applied. Now, what are my options if the vendor is asking me to pay the difference, if I need the chairs or they are like take refund and cancel the order. What should be done in this case?

I am of the opinion that the vendor should respect the lower price because that was the total price quoted and the transaction was completed.

    If it's genuine misprice or error, they're not required to take the loss. They are required to offer you a full refund should you wish not to pay difference.

      Not seeking a guru here, just an opinion.

        I am of the opinion that you should take this to the High Court and fight for your entitlement of the 75% off discount.

    If it is a pricing error the vendor can cancel the entire order and give you a full refund. They don’t need to do anything other than that.

    "I assume, there was a system issue on the Vendors website"
    "I am of the opinion that the vendor should respect the lower price"

    So you think it's likely a mistake but you want to hold them to their mistake. That's pretty scummy.

    You were happy to pay the 50% price when placing the order, so just pay the difference and move on. It sounds like a legitimate mistake, they could just cancel your order and you would not even be able to get them at 50% off.

    Worry about it when it happens.
