I think the episode had a huge plot flaw or lack of realism. See my post about price of products.

It must be great for Argos or John Lewis to buy 2000 chairs for no price. Wow - what a concept. Sarcasm intended.
The price was fixed at £75 before they even designed it. Both teams had to sell at that price.

It's interesting that the cost of manufacture didn't feature, though. The girls should have made their box out of gems and precious metals. They'd sell loads for £75

The price fix was retail not cost, so it would have sold for less than £75.
