Under the price, press the Promo button - go to basket, and for me it shows £0.00 for both cases.
Assume non-Prime members will have a small shipping cost there.
Only seems to work on 1 of each, changing the quantity doesn't work.

I feel incredibly bad for this seller. As a seller myself, I've seen this happen one too many times. You might see a professional 'Ltd' company name, but many of these are run by families trying to put food on the table.
These mistakes can destroy someones business.
Many people on here are throwing around the phrase "honoured". The seller isn't willingly 'honouring' these deals. There's no benefit to them in doing so. Amazon rates sellers based on specific metrics, one of those being order cancellation rates, if this drops below a certain percentage the seller risks losing their account. In these situations they're forced to make a difficult decision - give away their stock, or risk losing their Amazon account and the privilege to continue selling.
On top of that, you'll notice they have the Prime symbol next to their product, which means their product is stored in one of Amazon's warehouses and it's dispatched by Amazon. It's not the seller posting your product to you, if they're choosing to cancel the product, they're on the phone to Amazon to try and get Amazon to stop the dispatch process - often it can take the seller hours to realise what has happened and by the time they've got on the phone it's too late for them to request the cancellations.

I was wondering how long it'd take for someone to say thanks! :smile:
