Pirelli Scorpion ATR 255/60/18 112H on Amazon £46.61
I just spotted these, wrong size for me but might interest someone at £46.61 including P&P. They are showing out of stock but you can still order. I've ordered Wintrac 255/55/19 also showing currently out of stock.
It'll be interesting to see do any of these tyres turn up at these prices!!

DSL, I ordered the ATR's. Luckily(?) Amazon take the VAT off for Guernsey but still deliver for free for Prime members.

I think 99% of us expect that they will not come, however if they do happen to be delivered, it will be us with the last laugh. Andy.

Some merchants have pricing algorithms to be a penny less than the best price, so if there's a glitch on another site, one may find resultant crazy pricing. As mentioned, it's very likely not to be honoured, but since no money changes hands, why not have a punt on the off-chance of success?Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

Not sure if it is a pricing mistake. It's for the H rated tyres that were replaced by T rated tyres early last year, could be an exercise in clearing out old stock. Well I hope so anyway, my 6 will give me 2 new sets (with what I already have in the garage) plus 2 new spares for punctures. Also the part worns (5-6mm) on the car. About 100k miles all in.
Amazon have a wierd policy where products sold by 3rd parties run low on stock or out of stock. This seems to kick in a "dummy" fulfilled by Amazon listing for a product that Amazon have never sold and will never sell. Amazon seller forums are full of examples, even down to products sold by the sole producer/IP owner with no intention of supplying to Amazon direct. Nobody seems able to offer a reasonable explanation for it, but it's a regular occurrence.
I very much doubt that Amazon have ever sold these or the Vreds direct, that they've only ever been sold by third party sellers and that these are low or out of stock, triggering this policy.
