This is either a joke or an error!

I once saw a digital camera on Dabs.com selling for £999,999.

It's quite possibly the result of two (or more) automated price adjustment mechanisms reacting to each other.

There's a detailed explanation of a similar situation here: http://www.michaeleisen.org/blog/?p=358

No, it was a crappy HP with no optical zoom which, at the time, retailed for ~£100 elsewhere.

If anyone ordered one but refused to pay no more than the recommended retail price for that MemoryStick, or indeed for
that Blackberry USB data cable I posted earlier, instead of the totally mental prices listed on the items, could Amazon
actually legally the full amounts? Would they be enforcable debts. I'm no legal expert, but I very much doubt it.
