I think I only paid £165 for mine from the eBuyer outlet on eBay :p

Ebuyer were mis-quoting £299 as a prevoius sale price even before they had any first stock and they were supposed to be the exclusive initial sole suppliers. If this pricing con had been seen in a supermarket it would have been liable to prosecution.
Would you have bought one at nearly £300.00 - I ceratinly wouldn't have. I bet no-one can find anyone anywhere who did either.

@ TC is correct there.

I had an email from ebuyer today with an offer of a free case with the Extreme-->



LOL - The last time I checked they only have 97 Extreme Tablets in stock - So everyone should get a free case with their current stock levels!

Agree with TS - it was never 299 and that kind of advertising is misleading. Although, i guess they do it all the time. Most advertising is misleading in some way. Look at apple getting sued over their 'siri' thing for the iphone 4, blatantly does not work like they show in their adverts.

They can advertise it at £299 for ten seconds then drop to 189 and they have there previous selling price. marketing tricks everyones at it

Not really - They should have had it at £299 for at least 28 days (which we know they did not) and sold one too, before they can legally advertise a higher "was price" like that. It would be ok if they did not do that but had the £299 price listed as a "Manufactures Suggested Price".
