Just ordered 3 of these:

Sigma 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM Autofocus Lens for Canon AF

for a total of £40 delivered. I assume its a missprice so I used my credit card and ive got all my fingers crossed!

I dont actually have a camera at the moment but im in the market for my first DSLR.

Fingers crossed.

thats either the biggest misprice Ive seen in a while, or a bait and switch scam or some such.

Take care, and good luck!

Yh, i did read that. Seems they have trouble delivering but its not a scam site.

Im gambling £40 on getting about £1200 worth of kit, worst case i can claim it back from my card company and i dont get anything.

Other items on the side seem to be priced correctly so i think its a miss-price.

IIRC Your Credit card company is only equally responsible if the price is £100 or over, not £40.

I think you might be right.

No money has been taken from my account so I assume they arent honoring the order. No communications so far.

I think any company that does scams should be burnt down.

The took the money today ... pretty delayed of them, 5 days after confirming the order was canceled.

Looks like i have the fun of getting a refund to look forward to.

If they cancelled the order your bank should refund without too much issue.
