HP has apologised after an error on its website let shoppers buy expensive laptop computers for less than £2.

One device was listed with a previous sale price of £2,378, but was "reduced" to £1.58.

The computer firm briefly took its UK store offline on Saturday to resolve the error, and said it would not honour the sales that had been made.

In all fairness the website didn't actually let customers 'buy' the laptops at the misprice, it only let them order.

So they honoured the sold laptops? What's there to be sorry for, other than for those too late to take advantage of the error.

Would have thought a sorry we have cancelled your order but here is a gift card for $100 would have done it. Everyone who purchased would have realised it was a mistake.

No, they didn't honour the sales.
