They probably have an errors and omissions clause in there somewhere.

I thought this may be the case, but their own T&Cs are pretty clear cut on the matter.

Some on HUKD have highlighted the "unless" part after the text I bolded as a "get out" it may look so at a glance but it's quite clear that this only applies if they've not honoured/contracted into the deal by confirming despatch.

Orders for Sales & Purchases

Further information about placing and paying for an order is set out in Our Ordering and Payment help pages.

You may place an order to purchase a product advertised for sale on the Site by following the onscreen prompts after clicking on the item you are interested in. You will have an opportunity to check and correct any input errors in your order up until the point at which you submit your order (by clicking 'pay now' on the 'payment' page of the checkout procedure).

All orders placed by you are subject to acceptance by us. We may choose not to accept your order for any reason and will not be liable to you or to anyone else in those circumstances. On any such occasion We will email you to make you aware as soon as it is possible to do so.

You will receive an email, once your order is in process detailing your order reference and details of the product(s) you have ordered. Please note that this email is an acknowledgement only and is not an acceptance of your order."

Acceptance of your order and the formation of a contract between you and Us will take place when We send you an email confirming that the products you have ordered are being dispatched to you, unless We have notified you that We do not accept your order or you have already cancelled it in accordance with the provisions below (see Cancelling an Order).

Although We endeavour to give accurate stock availability information on the Site occasionally products you order may not be available. If this happens We will cancel your order, send you an email to confirm the cancellation and any sum debited by Us from your debit/credit card will be refunded in full to the same card.
