most likely, it's probably missing an extra 9.

Lol, surely someone from the community knows exactly which bi-law they are breaking and thus must honour this deal!

y u no rotate picture.

It's obviously a misprint. No need to jizz your pants

From the ACL:

Does a business have to sell at the lowest displayed price, even if the multiple price
representations are a genuine error?

To ensure that genuine pricing errors are not penalised by section 47, a business may sell
at the lowest displayed price, but the provision does not exclude their right to withdraw
the item from sale, correct the price and then offer it for sale again.

So yeah, their ass is already covered, you cannot force a store to honour a price mis-representation.

    "Oh, the photo's on its side. I'll just rotate my tablet, and… the photo rotates with it - FML!"
    
    You could turn your rotation lock on - for one photo.

My understanding is that they have to sell you it unless they have correction notices. In saying that, they also have the right to refuse service to anyone (I think)

I'll take 10 thanks

I think most here would agree that it's a mis-print/pricing error. Move to forum.

  So all of this debate is a moot(s) point.

    It's not completely wasted…it does serve to reinforce what the 'D' stands for in Dcomp! :p
