I paid for the goods on my debit card and I recieved an order confirmation for the bag and the jeans (priced at £0.00). I recieved the bag ordered but there was a note stating that the jeans are out of stock. I have checked the website and the same jeans are still available but priced at £39.99. Obviously the price of £0.00 was a mistake but do the company have an obligation to provide me with the goods at the price stated as they took the money from my account. The terms & conditions on the website do not mention anything about the company policy on this. I placed an order on a website for a bag priced at £24.99 and for 2 pairs of jeans priced at £0.00.

Say I place an advertisement on the local newspapers that say "Electric guitar owned and played by a famous British guitarist, Eric Clapton, for sale to the first person to write in, at a price of $5,000" Is this advertisement an invitation to treat or a offer? Hi,
I’m confused about differentiating offer and invitation to treat.

Say I place an advertisement on the local newspapers that say “Electric guitar owned and played by a famous British guitarist, Eric Clapton, for sale to the first person to write in, at a price of $5,000″

Is this advertisement an invitation to treat or a offer?

However, you may be able to argue that their terms and conditions do not bind you as they were not brought sufficiently to your notice and that you can’t click acceptance of something of which you were not fully aware I would need to see their terms and conditions to assess this but ISPs generally manage to avoid liability in this sort of situation by virtue of deeper pockets and restrictive terms and conditions.
