    Before anyone gets too excited, it seems that Amazon has made similar mistakes in the past and not honoured the lower price. I'll be interesting to see if this one sticks or doesn't, so keep us in the loop.

    Well, they've also made similar mistakes in the past and honoured them (e.g. Guitar Hero w/ Guitar for £30)... Let's see! :)

    If they don't are you free to cancel though? Great deal i certainly want the game and wouldn't probably pick up folklore if it IS only £15

    And it seems legit :)

    "Thank you for contacting Amazon.co.uk with your enquiry.

    I have checked your order #026-0718689-8038857 and can confirm that
    the price of the item "Folklore (PS3)" is 14.95 GBP

    I can also confirm that the price of the item "Lair (PS3)" from the
    order #026-5261485-4404464 is 14.95 GBP.

    Amazon.co.uk always wants to provide a good service to its customers.

    Hence, we will honour the prices given at the time of placing the
    order.

    Please be assured that there will be no changes in the price of the
    items.

    We hope that we have been able to alleviate your concerns.

    Thank you for shopping at Amazon.co.uk."

    I've now ordered 6 Lair's lol plus another 1 of each for myself. If they stand by this I expect I could make a profit of £90. That's unless the gets saturated with everyone selling off cheap copies of Lair lol

    Shoot, anyone know how much they charge to ship to the States?

    Are there Customs due?

    I wasn't going to buy either game, but for £15 each I'd be mad not to.

    Thanks for the heads up deepbrown :grin:

    Don't think they'll ship out of EU...you can try.

    ps. jumped 188,000 percent and rising on Amazon best sellers lol. Lair and Folklore are number 1 and 2. Even if it is a mistake - - it's a good one, because i think amazon could make a little bit of money out of this (depending on how much they buy them for!?) - I guess they are getting in a huge order and will buy them in massive bulk!

    Very smart moves. Having played the demo, Folklore is a must grab (for me !) if it's only £15. It will get more copies of Lair into people's hands too. We will be seeing lot's of real user feedback then.

    apparently (at least for now the price is correct)

    that's quite a deal... what's the conversion to USD from GBP right now?

    Folklore is that cheap? That'd be amazing. I downloaded the demo last night and had a blast, so did the SO.

    Asher, glad you like Folklore too. People should give it a try (I want to know others' take because it's a little of an oddball).

    I also saw your posts in the Wii thread. I can sympathize with some of your feelings there but in a different way. Will post my thoughts when I have enough time.

    Just wanted to say the the £15 Amazon offer (if it ever comes to fruition) will allow more people to comment themselves!

    total cost for me is something like 428,- dkr (including shipping and 25% danish vat)

    These two games in the shops would be somwhere between 1000,- and 1100,- dkr

    That is $78 vs $200
