I was browsing through Play.com this afternoon and did a double-take when I thought I saw a Fuji 7MP Digital Camera for £13.49. I scrolled back up the page, sure that I’d neglected to see another 1, but I was wrong.

Here is the listing on Play.com.

It’s showing as out of stock which is unsurprising really. But, I wonder if it’s a simple case of a typo or just one of those rare offers. The price of the blue, pink and red versions on Play.com are all priced at £94.99, which makes me wonder if the price for the green is intentional as I don’t think you could type £13.49 instead of £94.99 without really trying ;)

I’m going to keep an eye on that page to see whether the stock comes back in soon or whether the price will be corrected once they realise. I’d buy one for my Mum and Dad if I knew I wasn’t going to be stung for the full price before it was shipped to me…

    I’m told that camera is actually really bad, but that is not surprising; anything over 6mp in a compact camera is going to be noisy as hell anyway.

    Yeah, I think £13.49 is about as much as I’d pay for that…based on the colour alone!
