I love the fact that there are people who tried this who are saying it should be honoured  lol:

I admit I tried something similar on the Dell website a few years back just for the hell of it. If you ordered one of their laptops each upgrade you added reduced the price, by the time I'd added all the upgrades the bill was -£800. Knew it wouldn't work but it appealed to my sense of humour so couldn't resist.  redface:

Heard about this on Mark Steel earlier and my initial thought was 'fook me! Nick's mind has escaped and taken over a town in Somerset'  lol:
