I was thinking more along the lines of the website screwups which they do frequently.

They're never about when you need them

Not so frequently now in fact...
And you'll find that they are more likely to fob you off now with an email saying "Dear Sir,you placed an order at the time there was an incorrect price on our website,we have cancelled this order but if you wish to reorder at the correct price please call......."
All the orders that I've placed this year when they've made a mistake have had an email like the above.Prior to this, they used to honour pretty much all misprices.
What's the budget and which particular model do you have in mind?
