PRICE ALERTOTHON! Bluetooth USB dongle for… £3.99

By Paul Smith

Bitterwallet - Bluetooth USB dongle at Play.com It’s probably a pricing error, but as Hot UK Deals members know, favour fortunes the bold and every so often a handful of these deals are honoured.

So get cracking – Play.com have a Bluetooth USB dongle for £3.99 (RRP £139.99) which “converts a non-Bluetooth PC to Bluetooth enabled, allows wireless connecting to Bluetooth devices such as Mobile phones, PDA, PC, for data transfer, Networking, and Dial-up”. And so on.

It’ll probably disappear within moments of this post, so get over there and take a look. Thanks to avid Bitterwallet reader Matt for the hat-tip.

You can get them from poundland for you guess it, £1.

£4 is hardly a bargain.

You’re all morons

Irony? Saracasm? “joke”? Any of these terms ring a bell

@ClearThinker I don’t understand all this modern technology

You will no doubt pretend that you have posted this as a joke regarding the bizarre RRP but, admit it, you actually think that is a good deal for something worth a couple of quid, don’t you?

So it’s gone up 50p from when it was posted on HUKD four months ago ….

I’d say the moron is the person unable to differentiate between irony or sarcasm. Which is it?

Answer; neither.

Keep telling yourself that made you feel better after missing the point in your earlier post

I ordered it, thinking it was a good deal. I’ve always wanted to get me one of these “honoured” misprices. That makes me a gullible simpleton. Still, my being a cretin doesn’t exclude the possibility that the post was misconceived. There is no trace of irony on a first reading.

anyway, at least I only lost 4 quid.

@ PokeherPete

You could buy this for 3.99, then return your 139.99 one with the receipt.

Oz – there’s none on the second reading, either.
