Minor point but BZ2 has been out for donkeys.

Worth 1p though if anyone`s interested - I think it lacks long-term playability and you`ll get tired of the online gaming.

I really hope this works for a lot of people, the playability of the game may not be the best but looking at the prices HMV charges for most of their goods, they deserve a "loss" leader.

Good spot though, keep em coming.

I`ve ordered 25 copies. I`m not exepting them to come but I thought i`d give it a go (I was`nt expecting the Kodak Cameras too come, I just wish I ordered 25 of them!)

If anyone realy wants this game http://www.softwarefirst.com have it in for a £5.

Found a few others

PC CDROM
Pitfall
Best Of: Total Air War
Tony Hawks 2

GBC
Simba`s Adventure (not sure of the exact title but its something to do with Simba)

It says Tony Hwks 2 is 1p, more than likely this is an error so if you order it at 1p and they notice its the wrong price can they charge you the proper price: £20 or whatever or do they have to sell it to you for 1p?

Cheers great spot! How on earth did you find `em? Anyway keep `em coming!

I`ve ordered 5 of each - I don`t really expect to get them - I`ve already had an email saying battlezone 2 is out of stock - but it`s certainly worth a try.

As far as I know they can`t charge you anything other than the price that they quote on the website and order confirmation. However they are perfectly within their rights to cancel the order right up until they charge you. After they have charged you, you have the right to expect delivery of the goods, but that doesn`t mean that they won`t realise the error and try and stop it. Though at that point I believe that you as the customer are on stronger ground, legally, than they are.

(If anyone knows better I am only too happy to be corrected!)

What a surprise, I received this from HMV this morning and all the games which were 1p seem to have been deleted from their suppliers. Has anyone received any of these games?
