Nevis Cycles made a balls up with their website and so have one (only) size 58 Diverge Comp available for £1,100. They've said they'll honour that until Monday morning 🙂

Oops oops oops...we've mistyped the sale price on a Specialized Bicycles Diverge Comp Carbon 2017 so there's a total bargain out there for someone. RRP £2600, this bike was supposed to be on sale for £1500 but is listed on our website at £1100. So it's that super bargain price until Monday morning folks when our website updates!!! 58cm only. Brilliant reviews and is only on sale as Specialized are releasing a new updated version in a few weeks time

Why couldn't it have been a 52 🙁 Fair play to Nevis for honouring it over the weekend 😀

And if it had been a 54 I wouldn't have bothered posting about it here 🙂

If it was a 56, I'd have bought it as a spare!

I ordered one, got this:

Thank you for the order of a Specialized Diverge Comp Carbon. I have to apologise but we've had to refund your purchase. We only have one of these available and you were the third purchaser. The price of £1100 was a typo but we've honoured it for the first buyer. The way our website works, it will accept attempted purchases until the item is out of stock. The time between purchases was so quick (a minute or so), your transaction completed before it updated. Very sorry about that. I thought I should email you about it ASAP after seeing a sudden rush of transactions for that item. The refund has been processed in full already including the £30 postage.

This doesn't read at all like a free-publicity-for-our-sale incident.
Nope, not at all.

So there was only one for sale as advertised and it sold. No gimmicks whatsoever, just looks to me like a great LBS honouring a pricing error on one bike.

@scotroutes - great heads up.

just a great LBS honouring a pricing error on one bike.

But not that great that it has a stock level check in place before taking money/wasting customers time...

I thought the quoted text explained that.

Popular item sold cheaply attracts rush of purchasers - Whodathunkit?

No grumbles from me, researched the bike then filled in a form for a chance to win it at £1,100 😆

I don't even need a new one but couldn't resist at that price!!
