This kinda applies here also, but as far as I know, it's for store purchases and is about shelf price vs price at the cash, good example was some pastry I bought at the grocery store this weekend, the shelf had a sign it was on sale for $1.5, but it scanned at $1.98 ... Long story short ; I got it for free (long story : anything under $10 is free, above $10 is the lower price -$10 ... That's also how I got Castrol engine oil for $3 a while ago - it was advertised at $13 but would scan at $20).

Another cool thing is that you can take an expired product from a supermarket for instance for free if you find it for sale xD

Supermarkets here (Australia) have the same policy, however it's not part of consumer laws and protections here. The supermarkets opted in to do it themselves and it's simply company policy for the major supermarkets. The supermarkets brought in the policy when they changed from using ticketed prices on individual items to using barcodes and a shelf ticket. Not all customers were keen on the barcode idea cause they didn't understand how a computer would know the price of the item so they didn't trust it. It was brought in to restore confidence for the customers that if the barcode system does fail, they'll at least get it for free instead of being ripped off.

Changing the configuration of it, the 16GB is showing €160, but the 32GB is showing €1780 and the 8GB is showing price of €1513. Similar story with all the other configurations of HDDs/SSDs. Definitely a pricing error.

My guess is it was meant to be €1600, not €160, which will fit in with the other prices for that configuration. Someone just missed a 0 when typing in the price.

Price has since been updated on the product page. New price is €1604. Was a pricing error.
@ManosMax13 If you went ahead with your plan to order one then expect that you'll get an email saying that the order will be cancelled & refunded. If in the highly unlikely event that they decide to honour the incorrect price, then you're a very lucky guy.
