Bargain Olympus E-1 Digital SLR - £98.70 (Apple Education Store)

[stuartw101]

The Apple Store UK have the Olympus E-1 SLR which normally retails for £700ish listed as £98 if you go through their Education Store.

You or your dependents need to be in some form of education to qualify.

It seems a lot like a mis-price as it is still listed at £600+ on their main site, but it is worth a go just in case it is some sort of mega promo for schools.

You need to click on the Education section on the right hand side of the page and search for Olympus E-1 SLR, enjoy

lets hope not!

i mean they probably have rearlised their mistake
if its not on there nemore!

 

[ChristopherP]

Well it's gone 6 and not shipped... so they held it back as it was 24h shipping.

I know i shouldnt be but im really dissappointed as i was hoping it was a mega deal or something.

DSLR camera is something i have always wanted, but never been able to afford, a regular digital camera just dosen't have enought options for me. After playing with cousins Canon D20!

[ChristopherP]

Well nothing has come up on my statement saying "Apple" or anything... but £100 seems to have gone from my availiable balance... Its like £475 and £360 are cheques waiting to clear...

I dont know... You can see the picture... No one can get my bank details from it so 'll post it up.

 

[psd99]

i see well we will have to wait

i was thinking of getting 5 or 6 cuz u could make good money outa this if u wanted to

 

[ChristopherP]

You wont get even 1 - i'll bet you £5.

I read their Ts and Cs and even AFTER they have confirmed your order they can still cancel. very cleverly worded.
