<<I think it's a cock-up on their part but under the fair trading act, don't
they have to sell at the price they advertise? Anyone back this up?

Strictly speaking no, they don't. Argos recently offered a TV for a
ridiculously low price on their webshop (£4.50 or something equally daft)
and didn't have to honour any of the purchase orders. I think also in the UK
that a price ticket simply means that goods are for sale and is an
invitation to tender, or something. There was a similar discusion on a
Jessops thread in one of the photography NGs.
