I agree, especially because the original posting said something similar to
"This site has made an error - act quick and get 8480 for £4!!"

Everyone who responded to that and placed an order was, IMO, trying their luck.
Sometimes you lose, sometimes you walk away with unstorable amounts of Lego; I
don't see how anyone could geniunely be disgruntled at a company whose error
they were trying to capitalise upon.

For what it's worth, (a red 2x4 in a bucketful of pitchforks), that thing
Larry said goes for me too. There were some horrid moments last night when I
wasn't too proud to be an AFOL. Don't just say "Play Well", mean it too!
