I'm surprised they're allowing the sales to go through. When that happened in the past, all the orders were cancelled. I don't remember the details but it was something like iPads were selling for $50 each and none of the orders were honored at that price.

It took a whole hour before they managed to get prices back to normal. They didn't manage to cancel all the orders due to logistics. So, there are many happy customers and lots of unhappy retailers who have lost thousands of £s.
