Ohhh - that's fighting talk that is!
I wasn't attempting to defraud the company - for all I know they had a
special offer thingy on to attract ppl to the site!
I only placed an order which, frankly, their systems should have rejected as
invalid if there was a problem.
Why should the system accept them entering a 0.0 price if not to allow for
special 'you pay the shipping charges only) type offers?
After all, ryan air etc often do deals for next to nothing, except you have
to pay airport taxes :)
