One of my teachers told us how he was browsing plasma screens on some companies website, an mistakenly someone had posted up that this certain model was only like $200 or something, so my teacher ordered two, paid his $$, then got an email then next day explaining that it was a typo. My teacher then had a look around their company policy and it was stated that all prices displayed held, so he replied with this, and to cut a long story short they ended up giving them to him for free. He found out later they were worth about $2000 each not 200 :)

I bet they made some changes on their web site after that :lol:
