Spark deal at Maplin

[Noki49]

Hi guys.
This may interest people in the UK looking to buy a Spark.
I have just ordered a Spark from Maplin who are closing down soon and have some deals.
I ordered online where a Spark was £314 and the controller was £90, but when I added the controller to my basket it came up as free. It doesn't seem to say anywhere that there is such a deal but it has let me order both for the £314 price of the drone.
It seems a very good deal to me.
They are available to order online for delivery, or you may find some stores have stock.

Yes.
I asked in store.
Apperantly a 30% discount was applied to all toys as part of their closing down sale, and as drones come under toys and hobbies it was applied to them also by mistake.
When this was noticed the discount was changed to just the 10% as advertised.
The free controller was still working though when added to the basket so still not a bad deal.
I' not sure how long the mistake lasted but I think plenty of people took advantage.
There is some discussion on Hotdealsuk where people discuss getting price match deals at Currys and on Amazon.
I ordered one for delivery so hopefully will have mine in a few days..
